    Resy is an American online restaurant-reservation service company founded in 2014 by Gary Vaynerchuk, Ben Leventhal, and Michael Montero.[1][2] As of 2023, approximately 16,000 restaurants[3] globally can be booked through Resy.[4] Resy was acquired by American Express in 2019.[5]

    History

    [edit]

    Resy was founded in 2014 by Ben Leventhal, co-founder of Eater.com, Michael Montero, co-founder of CrowdTwist, and entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk.[6] In January 2017 the company raised $13 million from Airbnb, First Data Corporation and earlier investors RSE Ventures and Lerer Hippeau Ventures.[7] In April 2018, Resy enabled participating restaurants to list their properties on Airbnb through Resy's booking system and also acquired ClubKviar, a restaurant-booking platform in Spain.[8] In 2018, Resy acquired a competitor, Reserve, a reservation app launched by Garrett Camp's incubator, Expa.[9]

    In 2019, American Express acquired Resy and integrated it into its mobile app as an offering for some rewards card members.[10]

    In January 2024, it was announced that the platform would shut down its UK operations by the end of August 2024.[11]
