Australia Fintech Market Analysis

The Australia Fintech Market size in terms of transaction value is expected to grow from USD 4.11 billion in 2024 to USD 6.72 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 10.32% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The COVID-19 pandemic had a big effect on the Australian fintech market because it sped up the adoption of digital financial services and pushed innovation in the sector. One of the biggest effects of the pandemic was the move toward online banking and digital payments since many people couldn't or didn't want to go to physical bank branches because of social isolation. This made people want more fintech solutions like mobile banking apps, online lending platforms, and digital payment systems that let them access financial services from afar.

The pandemic made people realize how important it is to be financially stable, so many Australians started looking for new ways to handle their money and investments. This made it possible for new fintech solutions to be made in areas like wealth management and insurance. Overall, the COVID-19 pandemic sped up the adoption of digital financial services and pushed innovation in the Australian fintech market. Post-pandemic, the market is expected to continue to shape the fintech market in the years to come.

With over 800 fintech companies based in all Australian state and territory capitals, Australia has one of the world's most exciting and dynamic fintech industries. Australia's payments regulation in the digital age, including a new regulatory class for Stored Value Facilities and a system-wide review, and building on our collaboration with key partner nations, including the UK and Singapore, have made the Australian Fintech Industry grow at a very high pace. New players in the consumer and SME lending subsectors, as well as more buy-now-pay-later providers, are helping the number of fintechs in the lending sector grow. The growth of fintech related to blockchain and cryptocurrencies is in line with the general interest and support for the technology asset class. Despite the fact that delays in APRA's licensing process have had an impact on several neobanks, the neobank sector is still evolving across Australia.
