Fixter is an innovative and fast-growing startup launched in 2017 to simplify the life of all car owners, by bringing a world-class digital experience to the car maintenance industry.

At Fixter, we believe car servicing is broken and we're trying to fix it. In an industry plagued by mistrust and a lack of transparency, our customers can book an MOT, a car service or maintenance and we'll take care of the hassle: prices will be quoted upfront, our driver will collect & deliver your car at your home or office, and our network of local independent garages will service your car. We have launched in several cities in the UK, and raised a 6m€ Series A from Kamet Ventures and AXA.
