3 Unicorns and their valuation drop:

โœ” Checkout.com, the digital payments platform, dramatically reduced its internal valuation to $11 billion less than a year after raising a $1 billion round at a $40 billion valuation in January 2022. Thatโ€™s a 73% difference. 

โœ” Grocery delivery startup Instacart met the same fate. Its $12 billion internal valuation, reportedly set in April, was 69% lower than the $39 billion valuation investors pinned on it during a March 2021 funding round.

โœ” Stripe, another fintech startup that may as well be a household name, reportedly lowered its internal valuation by 40% in six months.ย The Informationย reported in January that the companyโ€™s internal valuationย was $63 billion, a 34% drop from when it was valued at $95 billion in March 2021.
