joefortune, which highlights local payment flows and mobile behaviour for Aussie punters. Next I’ll leave a short action list and contact pointers.
Action list (first 30 days)
– Implement POLi and PayID test flows with visible A$ amounts.
– Add RG caps and session timers to the personalised offers funnel.
– Run a 1% pilot cohort with logging for model decisions.
– Prepare an audit packet (data schema, model docs, RG triggers).
If you get these right, you can expand safely and keep ACMA and state regulators comfortable.
