Documented cause
Voopter built Brazil's leading flight price comparison platform. The company had survived Google Flights by focusing on local nuances: boleto payment, installment fares, and domestic airline quirks. COVID-19 eliminated air travel demand in Brazil for an extended period in 2020, removing all revenue while fixed costs continued. The company shut down without finding a buyer.
