Zepto placed 2nd on the list behind Immutable.
The Australian tech sector is booming. According to the Tech Council of Australia, 2.3% of the world’s tech unicorns ($1Bn+ companies) have already been founded in Australia, even though our global share of GDP is just 1.6%. We are, as they say, punching above our weight.
In just a few decades, Australia has produced an impressive list of globally successful companies like Atlassian, Canva, Afterpay, SEEK, REA, Airwallex, Nearmap, SafetyCulture, Go1, Culture Amp, Employment Hero and more. Along the way, a number of those - Canva, Go1 and Employment Hero, for example - have also been recognised by LinkedIn on the Top Startups list. Other notable LinkedIn Top Startups have included Koala, Airtasker, Prospa, Mr Yum, Linktree, Brighte, Me&u and Swyftx.
It's an impressive line-up, to be sure. Little wonder then, that we are over the moon about joining that cohort of success stories in 2022 alongside the likes of Immutable, Reejig, our friends at Superhero, FrankieOne and Zoomo, Thinkerbell, Zeller and Stake.
LinkedIn describes the list is a 'resource to find the startups to pay attention to right now, featuring 25 Australian companies that are rising to the challenges of the moment and continuing to innovate and gain attention in 2022.'
To compile the list, LinkedIn looked at data across four pillars:
We are obsessed with payments and the impact that better payment solutions can have on customer experience and business bottom lines. We love making an impact, and to be recognised for that as we go from strength to strength on our mission to power the movement of value through the economy is extremely satisfying.
If the job all of us at Zepto do, and the impact Zepto is having on the businesses we support is the 'cake', then recognition like this is the icing. Maybe the sprinkles, too.
Zepto’s first year has been a remarkable one. By every possible measure, we are a different business to the one that emerged from Split Payments after a rebrand in September 2021. Here are some reflections of that year from leaders across the business.

It’s hard for us to believe that it was just 12-months ago that Split Payments became Zepto after an exciting rebrand. Here are some highlights from that year as we look forward to a second 12-months as Zepto that might just be more exciting than the first.
