About
Australian FinTech is a news and directory site published by Australian FinTech Pty Ltd, part of The FinTech Company network that runs sister sites in the US, UK, Ireland and the UAE. It follows start-ups, banks and vendors in Australia.
What is on the site Sections cover news, a companies directory, products, events, memberships and sponsors. Headlines in mid-October 2026 include a Cloudoffis survey of self-managed super fund audit capacity, a story on Brisbane brothers launching VeroID, an identity-verification alternative for businesses facing Tranche 2 anti-money-laundering reforms, and two FICO pieces: a survey showing three-quarters of APAC banking leaders want purpose-built AI, and a launch of a foundation model for financial services. Bridgit's funding passing 1.7 billion dollars with Macquarie's added investment is also covered.
Format Stories are short, press-release driven and tagged by company, with a newsletter signup.
