History
Fred Helou established Vagaro in 2009.
In 2018, the company raised $63 million through a growth-equity funding round spearheaded by FTV Capital.
By 2021, Vagaro attained a valuation of $1 billion after securing further investment from FTV Capital, thus entering the unicorn category.
To accommodate expanding international demand and enhance relationships with clients in the U.K., Vagaro inaugurated its first overseas office in Stevenage, England, in 2022.
In 2025, Vagaro broadened its market footprint by acquiring Schedulicity, a smaller rival specializing in scheduling software.
