Series C cash injection for the award winning social network.

Flirtomatic will use the funds to further its growth both geographically and in terms of platforms.

It has presence across Europe and the US via partnerships with AT&T, MetroPCS, Virgin Mobile, T-Mobile and others. It has also closed a distribution deal with a multi-national operator 'launching Flirtomatic across an initial eight countries, under a single payment and billing system.'
 
Flirtomatic has more than 2.5 million users in the US and UK, and is available on the mobile web and through iPhone, iPod Touch and Android apps. This summer it will launch on Blackberry and Nokia’s Ovi Store.
 
“Flirtomatic’s success is built upon ground-breaking monetisation techniques, coupled with a multi-channel distribution strategy.

"This new investment will allow us to accelerate development in international markets, to continue to drive innovation and build on our position as one of the most viewed mobile sites according to the GSMA and comScore,” said Flirtomatic CEO and co-founder Mark Curtis.
 
The funding comes from Nauta Capital and existing investors Doughty Hanson, Seraphim Capital and Chairman Avi Azulai.
