Solaris announced the signing of its Series F round led by SBI Group and other existing investors.
The current round consists of EUR 96 million in additional capital and a financial guarantee of up to EUR 100 million capital equivalent. Solaris will use the funds to onboard the ADAC (Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobil-Club) credit card program, strengthen its core capital and invest in the resilience of its platform.

“This is a significant milestone for Solaris on our path to sustainable, profitable growth. The funding underlines the high level of confidence our investors have in the transformation of our company. 2024 heralds a bright new chapter for Solaris and we are committed to delivering on our business priorities, enhancing the product offering for our partners and making regulatory compliance our USP. I am proud of our team, which is passionate about defending and extending our market leadership. Together, we will now build a new Solaris.”
Carsten Höltkemeyer, CEO of Solaris
The funding round was led by SBI Group, one of Solaris‘ early strategic investors, and will enable the delivery of the ADAC migration. In September 2022, Solaris secured a long-term agreement to become ADAC’s co-branding credit card partner, issuing more than 1.2 million credit cards going forward. In July 2023, Solaris closed its first round of Series F funding at EUR 38 million, also led by existing investors, with the funds being used to strengthen governance and compliance and navigate the challenging market environment.
