Edu-tainment Startup Fingerprint Digital Takes In Funding, Readies Launch Of A Rewards Platform For Kids

Fingerprint LogoSan Francisco-based?Fingerprint Digital, a mobile gaming startup with a focus on educational apps for kids, has taken in new investment, the company announced today. The lead investor, Canadian-based media and entertainment company Corus Entertainment, is not disclosing the size of the round, but Fingerprint had?previously raised a seed round of $1.4 million followed by a bridge round, and says its total raise to date is now $7.75 million. (See also: this SEC filing). What Corus brings to the table, in case you're wondering, is a host of IP in the kids animation space, specifically popular titles like Franklin and Friends, Max & Ruby, Babar, Scaredy Squirrel, Chester and Citzenkid, to name a few. Plus, as an entertainment company, it has the ability to help on the distribution side as well. The end result of the partnership is that some of those animated titles will be now able to jump off the TV screen and onto the iPad, thanks to Fingerprint's own in-house development team.
