$5 is enough to start investing, but the real question is what happens after that first deposit. We’re joined by Craig Keary, CEO of Raiz Invest Limited, to break down how an ASX listed micro investing pioneer is evolving into a broader wealth platform built for everyday Australians and the habits that make investing feel doable in real life, not just in theory.

We dig into the numbers behind the momentum: active customers growing to more than 350,000, ARPU lifting year on year, and average account balances pushing higher as markets rise and customers stay engaged. Craig walks us through the platform’s growing funds under management, including the standout performance of Jars portfolios and Kids accounts. It’s a sharp lens on what Australians are prioritising right now: goal-based saving and investing, and families helping younger people get started early, especially in a cost-of-living environment where every decision needs to count.

Superannuation also features as a core part of the proposition, with Raiz Invest Super earning strong recognition for performance and value. From there, we look forward to the FY27 product roadmap, including instant payments for live trading, access to US listed equities, and direct ASX trading through a single HIN. Craig also shares why the company is renewing its focus on acquisition, onboarding, conversion and activation, how AI capabilities and partnerships may support that push, and why “ambition” is the cultural anchor he wants driving disciplined execution.

If you’re interested in investing apps in Australia, wealth building, superannuation, and what to watch in ASX fintech, this conversation is packed with practical signals.
