CURE: One app, all things health

What CURE: One app, all things health does

CURE Group GmbH is a Berlin-based healthcare delivery platform founded in December 2021 by Ali El-Ali (CEO) and Manuel Aberle (COO). The company operates a two-sided digital infrastructure connecting independent pharmacies in Germany and France with end consumers via its own consumer mobile app (GetCure, iOS/Android) and B2B2C integrations with major delivery aggregators Lieferando and Wolt. Orders are routed to the nearest partner pharmacy, which fulfills and dispatches delivery via CURE's rider fleet or the pharmacy's own delivery service, with target fulfillment windows of 30–45 minutes.

The core technology stack centers on real-time POS integration with all major German pharmacy management systems (ADG, Awinta, Lauer-Fischer/CGM, Pharmatechnik, ApoSoft, Apotechnik) and French POS Offisanté, enabling automated inventory checks that prevent orders for out-of-stock products. The platform is marketed as an "AI-driven" copilot that automates order routing, availability verification, and rider dispatch, with a "hubless" asset-light architecture that avoids company-owned micro-fulfillment centers. The product catalog covers 3,000+ OTC SKUs (expanded by 500+ in June 2023 to include beauty, supplements, vitamins, sleep aids), and an E-Rezept module launched in August 2023 supports paper and electronic prescription upload and delivery across six German cities.

CURE generates revenue primarily through per-order transaction fees charged to partner pharmacies, with no fixed subscription costs and no minimum contract terms, plus commercial commission arrangements with delivery aggregators that surface CURE's pharmacy network within their apps. Pharmacies are promised up to 1,200 additional monthly orders, with reported outcomes of +20% orders and +30% revenue per partner. Consumers receive free delivery on both OTC and prescription medications. Total disclosed funding stands at approximately €19.7 million across a €4.7M seed (January 2022) and a €15M Series A led by Breega (September 2022). The company operates as CURE Group GmbH in Germany (Berlin HQ, active in 7+ cities) and CURE Group France SAS in Paris.

Revenue model

1. Commission per Order (Pharmacy-side): CURE charges partner pharmacies a small transaction fee per order fulfilled through the platform. There are no fixed subscription costs for the pharmacy. This is the primary revenue stream, generated when customers order via Lieferando, Wolt, or the CURE app and the pharmacy receives and fulfills the order.
2. B2B Platform Licensing / Commission from Delivery Aggregators: Revenue is also generated from commercial arrangements with delivery platforms (Lieferando, Wolt) that integrate CURE's pharmacy network into their apps. CURE acts as the pharmacy-fulfillment layer, earning a share of the transaction value when consumers order pharmacy products through the aggregator's interface.
3. Prescription Delivery (E-Rezept): E-prescription orders are delivered by partner pharmacies. CURE facilitates the prescription upload, validation, and delivery coordination. Delivery for prescription medications is offered free of charge to consumers; the pharmacy monetizes the prescription fill through statutory or private insurance reimbursement.
