Kobble taps Paymentology to Accelerate Embedded Finance Growth in Australia

Partnership combines Australia's only independently licensed Banking-as-a-Service platform with Paymentology's global issuer processing infrastructure

SYDNEY, Australia – [DATE] – Paymentology, the leading global issuer processor, today announced a partnership with Kobble, Australia's only independently licensed Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform and Mastercard Principal Partner, to help businesses launch and scale embedded finance products faster across Australia.

The partnership brings together Kobble's locally licensed banking infrastructure with Paymentology's global issuer processing capabilities, creating a powerful platform for fintechs, enterprises, insurers and consumer brands looking to launch card programmes, branded accounts and digital payment experiences without the complexity traditionally associated with financial services.

Demand for embedded finance continues to accelerate across Australia as businesses increasingly seek to integrate financial products directly into their customer experiences. Through the partnership, organisations can access a streamlined path to market, combining regulatory compliance, licensing, card issuing and payment processing through a single platform.

Minh ha Truong, Head of Growth APAC at Paymentology commented: "Embedded finance is moving from a niche innovation to a strategic priority for businesses across multiple industries. As organisations look to integrate financial products into their customer journeys, they need infrastructure that removes complexity rather than adds to it."

"Kobble has built a compelling proposition for the Australian market, combining regulatory expertise with a modern platform approach. By bringing together their licensed BaaS capabilities and our global issuer processing infrastructure, we're enabling businesses to launch and scale card programmes with greater speed, flexibility and confidence."

Kobble's platform removes many of the traditional barriers to launching financial products, including navigating licensing requirements, managing multiple vendor relationships and building complex infrastructure integrations. The company recently launched Kobble AI, a self-service product builder that enables businesses to design and visualise embedded finance products in minutes.

The partnership has already enabled a direct integration between Paymentology's issuer processing platform and Kobble's proprietary ledger and compliance infrastructure, delivering real-time authorisation, card switching and settlement capabilities within Kobble's regulatory framework. Shane Chanel Co-Founder & CEO at Kobble, said: "Demand for embedded finance in Australia has reached an inflection point. Businesses across fintech, insurance, retail and enterprise are actively looking for ways to embed financial products into their platforms, but they need a partner that can help them navigate the complexity. Paymentology's proven issuer processing infrastructure gives us the scale, reliability and real-time capabilities our clients expect. Together, we're creating a platform that allows businesses to move from concept to live card programme faster than ever, while maintaining the compliance and operational standards required to grow with confidence."

The partnership is initially focused on supporting customers across Australia, with opportunities to expand into additional markets over time. Together, Paymentology and Kobble are helping organisations launch innovative financial products while reducing the cost, complexity and time traditionally associated with embedded finance initiatives.
