Disclosed round sizes in this Australia-focused financial services list are highly skewed: MoneyMe’s $264M round (2026-05-14) dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts shown, including Plenti’s $364M (2025-11-17) and Qualitas Group’s $367M (2024-06-26) while most other disclosed rounds sit far lower, with multiple entries at $11M, $5M, $3M, and sub-$1M levels. Stage and disclosure are similarly uneven: 20 of 50 rows are labeled “Series Unknown” and 3 of 50 are “undisclosed,” while only a smaller set shows clearly disclosed Seed/Pre-Seed/Series A values (for example, MoneyMe is “Series Unknown,” but Honey Insurance is Series A with $71M on 2024-04-08). Geographically, Sydney, New South Wales is the repeated hub across many rounds (e.g., Earlytrade 2026-06-09 at $10M; upcover 2025-02-10 at $11M; Prospa 2024-04-05 at $132M), while Melbourne also appears frequently (e.g., Drummond Capital Partners 2026-06-22, MoneyMe 2026-05-14 is Sydney, but JustFund 2024-11-04 at $86M and Qualitas Group 2024-06-26 at $367M). Temporally, the visible window runs from 2024-01-11 (Futurerent $34M) through 2026-06-22 (Drummond Capital Partners, amount undisclosed).

Frequently asked
Which disclosed round is largest here, and how much does it stand out from the rest of the disclosed amounts?
The largest disclosed amount shown is Qualitas Group at $367M (2024-06-26). That figure sits well above other major disclosed rounds such as Plenti’s $364M (2025-11-17) and MoneyMe’s $264M (2026-05-14), while many other disclosed entries cluster in the single-digit millions and below (e.g., Birchal $1M on 2024-12-11; aglow $820K on 2024-08-12).
Are Sydney or Melbourne over-represented compared with other Australian cities in this list?
Sydney is the most repeatedly listed city across many rounds, including Earlytrade ($10M on 2026-06-09), upcover ($11M on 2025-02-10), Prospa ($132M on 2024-04-05), and Honey Insurance’s parent listing (also Sydney) with $71M on 2024-04-08. Melbourne also appears often (e.g., JustFund $86M on 2024-11-04 and Qualitas Group $367M on 2024-06-26), while many other cities have one or two entries (e.g., Perth: Moneycatcha $1M on 2024-08-20; Neometals $3M on 2024-08-19).
What does the disclosure mix look like, and which stage labels are most common among disclosed rounds?
Disclosure is uneven: 20/50 rows are marked “Series Unknown,” and 3/50 are “undisclosed” (e.g., Drummond Capital Partners on 2026-06-22; Cecil on 2026-01-13; LOKE on 2024-04-24). Among those with amounts shown, Seed/Pre-Seed/Series A appear repeatedly (e.g., Seed: Mary Technology $5M on 2026-03-09; Seed: Pearler $2M on 2025-02-13; Series A: Superhero is “Series Unknown” but Honey Insurance is Series A $71M on 2024-04-08).
Are there any temporal clusters in the most recent period (last ~12 months of shown rounds)?
Yes, multiple sizable rounds land in the most recent year of entries shown, including Plenti’s $364M on 2025-11-17, Midkey’s $66M on 2025-12-17, and Shift’s $128M on 2025-04-16. Earlier in 2024, large rounds also appear, such as Qualitas Group’s $367M on 2024-06-26 and Honey Insurance’s $71M on 2024-04-08, suggesting high-variance deal sizing across different sub-windows rather than a single uniform spike.
Which outliers (by size or disclosure) are most worth flagging for deeper diligence?
MoneyMe’s $264M (2026-05-14) and both Qualitas Group’s $367M (2024-06-26) and Plenti’s $364M (2025-11-17) form the high-end outlier band among disclosed amounts. On the low end, several disclosed rounds are under $1M (e.g., DARE Venture Group $320K on 2025-05-01; Lodgicl $100K on 2025-05-01; Breezepay $130K on 2024-05-28), while some entries with “undisclosed” amounts can’t be sized for comparison (e.g., Advice Lab on 2025-11-20 and Cromwell Property Group on 2025-05-22).
