Spanish startup Webel, a digital marketplace for home services, has closed a €4.3 million pre-Series A funding round to support its growth, strengthen its technology, and expand its presence across the European market. The round was led by existing investor Trind Ventures, with participation from Decelera Ventures, Tiburon, and other investors. Mantas Mikuckas, co-founder and former COO of Vinted, also joined the round as a new investor.
Founded in 2018, Webel was created to simplify everyday life by making it easier for people to book home services while creating job opportunities for professionals who manage their work through the platform.
The company currently has more than 2 million users and around 350,000 registered professionals, with nearly one million service listings available on its marketplace. The platform operates in 31 Spanish cities and has recently begun its international expansion in the United Kingdom.
Among the most requested services are home cleaning, ironing, and handyman work. In recent months, demand has also grown in additional categories such as small home renovations, moving services, manicure services, appliance repair, private tutoring, and childcare.
We are evolving from being perceived as a cleaning app to becoming a broader home services platform, with categories such as electricians, plumbers, renovations, moving services, tutoring, childcare, and elderly care among the more than 30 services currently available,
said Nacho Tejero, CEO and co-founder of Webel.
A key aspect of Webel’s model is its cost structure. The platform allows customers to access services at prices that are typically 30–40% lower than those offered by competitors. At the same time, professionals benefit from lower commissions than the industry average while maintaining full control over their pricing, schedules, and clients.
The newly raised funding will be primarily allocated to marketing and product development to support the platform’s growth and increase visibility for the newer service categories. In the short term, the company plans to strengthen its presence in Spain while continuing to expand its offering.
