In December 2012 The Fancy quietly filed a funding event for $6M, which appears to have gone unreported by the press. Today in a regulatory filing they revised that amount to $15M, bringing total reported funding to just shy of $60 Million. This investment comes on the heels of $26.4M raised in October 2012 from American Express and a slew of well-known names including Jack Dorsey and Chris Hughes. Yesterday the company claimed on Twitter that just shy of 100K signups in a single day:
