Acquisition of Travel Tech Startup Teleport by StampMyVisa
StampMyVisa, a leading B2B visa platform, has announced the acquisition of Teleport, a travel tech startup with a strong presence in South India, in August 2025. The acquisition aims to combine Teleport’s digital-first, youth-focused approach with StampMyVisa’s operational expertise and deep business network.
Founded in 2022 by Nikita Dresswala in Mumbai, Teleport focuses on making visa applications easier by guiding users from application to approval. It has backing from notable Indian entrepreneurs such as Kunal Shah (CRED), Vidit Aatrey (Meesho), and Phanindra Sama (RedBus).
StampMyVisa intends to leverage Teleport’s consumer-centric brand and loyal user base among young Indian travelers while integrating it with its scalable visa infrastructure and API platform (Konveyor). This integration allows seamless integration of visa services into travel platforms, banks, OTAs, and fintech apps.
The strategic goal is to build a comprehensive, technology-driven visa service platform that can efficiently serve both India and the wider Southeast Asia region by offering faster, streamlined visa solutions targeting B2B clients and end consumers.
Rahul Borude, CEO of StampMyVisa, highlighted that the deal brings together “the best of both worlds: Teleport’s consumer innovation and SMV’s scalable visa infrastructure,” reflecting a synergy aimed at revolutionizing visa services with technology and improved user experience.
The acquisition is expected to significantly enhance digital visa service delivery in South India — a critical market with growing outbound travel demand — and extend StampMyVisa’s footprint into Southeast Asia, thus accelerating its leadership in the digital visa services space.
StampMyVisa, which reports a 99.5 percent visa success rate, has processed over 50,000 applications within six months. The company's Chief Financial Officer, Dhaval Mehta, has contributed to the company's growth strategy and fundraising plans. Co-founder Pravin Wadekar leads large-scale operations and partnerships at StampMyVisa.
In addition to this acquisition, StampMyVisa has developed an international franchise named "StampMyVisa India." The company has also developed an API infrastructure called Konveyor, which allows travel platforms, banks, and fintech firms to integrate visa services directly into their products.
