About Yingying
Yingying Licai, operated by Hangzhou Longying Investment Management Co., Ltd., was established in 2013 as a peer-to-peer (P2P) marketplace focused on personal and business loans. The company was founded in Hangzhou, China, by Ye Jinwu.
The firm positioned itself within the burgeoning fintech sector in China, developing a mobile application to deliver professional P2P lending services directly to Chinese users. This platform enabled individuals to invest their capital by funding loans for both businesses and other individuals. The business model centered on facilitating these lending and borrowing activities through its digital marketplace. By June 2014, the company reported reaching one million registered users, with transaction volumes amounting to approximately RMB 300 million (US$48.71 million).
Yingying Licai's growth was supported by significant venture capital investment. The company successfully raised a total of $13.2 million over two funding rounds. The first was a seed round in 2013, which brought in $3.2 million from Ceyuan Ventures. This was followed by a Series A round on August 6, 2014, where the company secured an additional $10 million, with GGV Capital being a key investor. These funding rounds included participation from institutional investors GGV Capital and Ceyuan Ventures.
