Securely Group Named Finalist for Pay360 Awards 2024 in Best Open Banking/A2A Initiative Category

Securely announces $6m(USD) Series A begins mid May. Five years ago, our founder set out to solve a real-world problem: Scams. He wasn’t a fintech expert — but he knew the problem was real. So, he built a team. People who could help him turn the idea in his head into something that could move markets. A couple of years in, we had an MVP live and we caught the attention of bankers in Australia. That was a sliding doors moment. What started as us becoming a launch customer for a new bank product ended up being a turning point — it gave Rob deep, first-hand access into how bank payment rails really work behind the scenes and that’s where he had a eureka moment. A moment Elon Musk has talked about, but still hasn't achieved — connecting social media profiles to bank accounts. Why does it matter? Because 8 out of 10 scams today start on social media. Because scams are now a $1 trillion dollar problem every year. And here’s what he realised: Everyone was looking at it from the wrong end. Instead of asking Facebook to clean up fake profiles — banks could step up. Banks could offer their customers verified digital identities tied directly to their accounts. We searched the globe. No one was offering it. No one had even patented it. So we did! Our patent was lodged in 2023 — published in April 2025 — and it’s on track to be fully granted within six months. And the market size? Seventeen billion transactions a year happening on peer-to-peer marketplaces — and virtually no formal payment rail in sight. For banks, it's a game-changer: It protects up to $3.5 trillion dollars in deposits from bleeding into third-party apps. It makes customers safer. It strengthens trust. And — who would’ve thought — it might even be a service they can charge for. In the last 6 months, we’ve won fintech and payment awards in New York and Berlin. We’re now being talked about as Australia’s next tech unicorn — and maybe even the next PayPal. But to get there, we don’t just need cheques. We need doors opened. We need strategic partners. We need smart capital. We've already started global conversations with banks in US, Latam, India and the EU — and we’ve only been commercialising for six months. And we’re not a one-trick pony either. We hold three patents, with a fourth on the way. We’re now raising our first external round — a Series A. If you can help this little Aussie scale-up go global — We'd love to talk.
