Fat Zebra Acquires SecurePay from Australia Post, its third acquisition in 14 months
We are pleased to announce a significant development in Fat Zebra’s growth strategy. Today, we have acquired SecurePay from Australia Post, marking our third acquisition in the past 14 months, and a key step in our mission to become the leading domestic provider of digital payment solutions across Australia.
SecurePay is one of Australia’s original online payments providers, with a 20-year track record and more than 35,000 businesses using its services. Since becoming part of Australia Post in 2010, SecurePay has delivered reliable, secure, and integrated payment processing to businesses of all sizes. Its long-standing customer relationships make it a natural fit for Fat Zebra’s expanding capabilities.
A Strengthened Proposition for Australian Businesses
This acquisition further accelerates Fat Zebra’s ability to provide a comprehensive suite of payment solutions, spanning enterprise, platform, and SMB segments. It follows our acquisitions of Adatree, a leader in customer data portability, and Pin Payments, a trusted provider of embedded payments for small to medium-sized businesses and software platforms.
The integration of SecurePay enables Fat Zebra to:
- Broaden our customer base with thousands of active merchants
- Deliver enhanced technology infrastructure and support to SecurePay customers
- Strengthen our local position as a leading end-to-end payment provider
- Provide deeper value to businesses through tailored solutions and domestic expertise
What This Means for SecurePay Customers
SecurePay customers will experience no disruption to their existing services. We are working closely with Australia Post to ensure a seamless transition and to maintain service continuity throughout the process.
In addition, customers will gain access to Fat Zebra’s industry-leading infrastructure, which supports more than 250 million transactions annually and services over 38,000 merchants and platforms, including well-known brands such as PayPal, Sportsbet, Zip, RACQ, and Aussie Broadband.
SecurePay customers can expect:
- Improved performance and processing speeds
- Scalable, secure infrastructure built for high growth
- Continued access to reliable customer support
- Enhanced product innovation over time
A Unified, Homegrown Payments Leader
Fat Zebra remains proudly Australian-owned and independent, with local staff, support, and infrastructure. Our goal is to continue building a homegrown payments leader that is agile, responsive, and committed to the long-term success of Australian businesses.
This acquisition strengthens Fat Zebra’s position as a trusted domestic provider of digital payments. By bringing together multiple platforms, we are creating an offering that is flexible, scalable, and future-ready — capable of supporting everyone from early-stage startups to major national brands.
We remain focused on:
- Delivering high approval rates and reduced fraud
- Optimising the cost of acceptance for merchants
- Providing responsive, personalised support
- Building the infrastructure to support a thriving digital economy
We thank the teams at SecurePay and Australia Post for their collaboration during this process and welcome all SecurePay customers to Fat Zebra.
