About Tripup

TripUp was a travel-based social networking platform founded in 2006 by Sam Rogoway, headquartered in Los Angeles, California. The company's main service was an online platform that allowed users to connect with fellow travelers and locals, share travel experiences through videos, blogs, and photos, and get travel advice from the community.

The platform operated in the social software and communication software industries. In February 2006, TripUp secured an early-stage venture capital funding round (Series A). The company was acquired by SideStep, Inc. through a merger and acquisition deal on July 2, 2007. Following the acquisition, the company is now considered deadpooled.
