minuteKEY Inc., the world's first self-service kiosk for accurately duplicating keys, today announced that it secured growth financing in the amount of up to $30 million from Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: MAIN). The funds will be used to accelerate kiosk expansion at high-traffic retail locations in the United States and Canada, and fuel continued innovation. Together with the capital previously raised, this latest financing brings the aggregate amount raised to over $81 million.

'This new capital infusion gives minuteKEY the ability to continue to aggressively pursue our business plan, and we're pleased that Main Street shares our enthusiasm and confidence in this business,' said minuteKEY CEO Randy Fagundo. 'It's rewarding to see the acceptance of our service grow among retailers and consumers. Today we have thousands of kiosks on the ground and recently cut our 20 millionth key; we look forward to substantially growing those numbers in the future.'

It's estimated that 600 million keys are cut annually in the United States. minuteKEY® is revolutionizing the key duplication industry by changing the way consumers duplicate keys -- transforming an inconvenient and labor-intensive process into a simple turn-key solution. Consumers simply walk up to a minuteKEY® kiosk, and using a touchscreen, insert the key for duplication, then select the style and number of keys they need. Upon making their payment, new keys are accurately cut in approximately 60 seconds.

'This transaction is another example of our strategy to partner with companies with a competitive advantage and high growth potential,' said Colton Braud of Main Street. 'We are particularly excited by the minuteKEY opportunity as they fill a key duplication niche that helps drive revenue for retailers and provides a superior solution for consumers.'

Earlier investors in minuteKEY include Matrix Partners and Serent Capital.
