Australia B2B Payments Market Trends and Drivers:

The market is currently seeing the rapid rise of cloud-based B2B payment platforms, real-time payment networks (NPP), and digital integration with ERP/accounting systems. Virtual cards and API-driven solutions are gaining popularity for instant settlements and spend tracking. Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) offerings designed for B2B have captured SME interest, with new regulatory changes in 2024 increasing trust and uptake. Enhanced cybersecurity, fraud prevention via AI-driven authentication, and digitalization of cross-border payments are transforming how Australian businesses transact. Partnerships between fintechs and incumbents, along with regulatory support, are ensuring scalable and innovative solutions reach all business sizes.

Growth in the market is powered by the pursuit of greater payment automation, reduced transaction errors, and improved working capital management. Regulatory efforts, such as stricter BNPL credit checks and NPP rollout for real-time payments, increase confidence in digital-first solutions. The need to streamline supply chains, reduce administrative overhead, and enable faster, error-free reconciliations is pushing businesses to adopt solutions that deeply integrate into their financial workflows. Fintech competition and tailored offerings for large and small enterprises alike are adding dynamism to the sector.

Market Challenges and Opportunities:

Challenges include persistent late payments (over 50% of B2B receivables are overdue), liquidity management concerns, and the complexity of integrating legacy systems into modern digital workflows. SMEs can face resource hurdles in adopting new technology or meeting real-time compliance reporting requirements. Regulatory uncertainty, volatile financial conditions, interoperability across solutions, and cybersecurity risks all represent barriers that businesses and providers must continuously address.

Significant opportunities exist in the expansion of digital and mobile-first B2B payment systems for SMEs and cross-border traders. The increasing adoption of BNPL and real-time payment solutions uniquely tailored for B2B creates openings for product innovation. The government's digital payments push, mandates like e-invoicing, and growing use of AI for risk management offer further potential. Integrating payment solutions with core business management software-especially ERP/accounting-and expanding personalized offerings to underserved enterprise segments are also promising growth avenues.

Australia B2B Payments Market News (2025):

In mid‐July 2025 , the Reserve Bank of Australia proposed to eliminate surcharges on most debit and credit card payments and lower interchange fees paid by businesses. The RBA estimated that these reforms could save consumers and businesses up to AUD 2.4 billion annually . Feedback is invited until August 26, with final regulations and an implementation timeline expected by year-end.

In April 2025 , fintech industry leaders voiced strong support for the surcharge reforms. Pred Dragila, founder of Fat Zebra, urged a shake-up in the current surcharge model, calling it excessively exploitative and unfair to consumers. He noted surcharges had become a profit center for payment providers rather than a legitimate fee, adding pressure on the RBA and government to move forward with reform.
