Australian fintech Zeller has announced A$100m ($73m) in a Series B funding round at a valuation of more than A$1bn ($731.2m).
US-based VC Headline led the round with participation from Australian industry superannuation fund Hostplus.
Existing investors including Square Peg, Addition, and Spark Capital also joined the round, which saw the fintech more than double its valuation.
With a focus on small and medium-sized businesses, Zeller will use the proceeds to expand its product portfolio by adding new business banking and payment capabilities.
Zeller plans to develop a solution that will allow its clients to manage the different aspects of their business including payments, finances, expense management and credit.
Zeller CEO and co-founder Ben Pfisterer said: “We are excited to be entering Zeller’s next growth phase, as we rapidly expand our product range to offer businesses access to every financial services product they might need to thrive.
