Our customer base is growing every month – which is a key metric, but it’s heartening to have this industry recognition of our platform and the technology behind it.”
“The Australian start-up landscape is expanding rapidly and creating opportunities for innovative and disruptive technologies to provide a better customer experience. We’re pleased to be a part of this industry and are grateful for the work that Australian Fintech does to keep our industry and achievements in the spotlight,” he added.
