The funding will be deployed to expand the award-winning scale-up's existing AI based credit Insights portfolio and help it expand into other emerging open data markets and verticals globally.
MOGOPLUS provides vertical agentic AI solutions into the financial services sector, with a specialisation across the lending and credit lifecycle. Enabling banks and credit providers to automate large parts of their workflows, the MOGOPLUS agentic credit decisioning suite dramatically lowers loan origination costs, and facilitates quicker, more accurate lending decisions. Existing customers include 2 of Australia's Tier 1 Banks, a large Middle Eastern Bank, Customer Owned Mutuals, Credit Unions and a raft of Digital Lending Platforms and Non-Bank Lenders.
The funding will allow for additional commercial reach to meet the growing market demand in the agentic AI space and increase development of the range of AI solutions outside of the banking and finance arena. A further funding round to accelerate this growth is also now being structured.
Commenting on the raise, MOGOPLUS CEO Mike Page said 'We are thrilled to continue our long-term relationship with New Model as we begin this new chapter of growth.'
As the AI agent market continues to mature and enterprises experience the strategic value of utilising a digital workforce in process heavy and manual workflows, the next wave of innovation will utilse a combination of domain expertise and explainable multi-agent architecture. Our decade of expertise in making sense of unstructured financial data positions MOGOPLUS well for this exploding global market.
Although the banking and financial services sector provides significant opportunity for us to continue to grow, we are now also seeing interest in our agentic solutions across other verticals such as Telecommunications, Insurance, Wealth, and Loyalty.
Having New Models' market reach, expertise, and support to achieve this creates an ideal partnership'
New Model's CEO and Founder James King added 'We're delighted to continue backing Mike and the MOGOPLUS team as they scale their proven agentic AI solutions into new markets. Their deep expertise in financial data and strong customer traction with major banks positions them perfectly to capitalise on the explosive growth in enterprise AI adoption.'
According to a recent report the AI Agent market is projected to grow from USD$7.84bn in 2025 to USD$52.62bn in 2035. A CAGR of 46.3%. The report states that the market expansion 'will be boosted by industry specific adoption in sectors like healthcare, retail and finance, where agents can tailor interactions, shorten response times and handle intricate regulatory processes
Vendors who can create and deliver these specialised intelligent agents will gain a competitive edge, as these systems are integrated into specialist business functions'.

Simple money hack could save you hundreds of dollars over July 4th weekend
Gen Z-ers are spilling the tea on why purchasing items with cash helps save money. The simple money hack that's been sweeping social media for the last couple of years has been intensifying recently as young Americans grapple with rising costs. Australian influencer Matt Hey has been an advocate for paying with cash and keeping credit cards in wallets. He revealed in a TikTok video that using cash for recreational purposes makes him have a 'more conscious decision' into what he purchases. Before learning the trick, he would go over his $100 weekly budget because he did not think about what he was purchasing. Now, he pulls the money out of an ATM and typically has funds leftover to put into his savings. Another trick is to opt out of tap-to-pay, according to financial planner Nadia Vanderhall. By going cash-only, anyone celebrating the 4th of July will have a better chance of tracking their payments and eliminating the temptation for impulse buys. 'You decide how much you want to spend for the weekend, pull that amount in cash on Friday, and that's all you allow yourself to use through Sunday,' she told Bustle this week. Big spenders can try out the trick any time they'd like, all they need is a debit card and a way to withdraw money. Besides controlling overspending habits, it can also help save money on food or other things, which helps 'create real awareness.' Before giving it a go, cardholders are advised to check their bank balance, plan out the week ahead, and withdraw enough money to cover fees without going overboard. 'A lot of folks budget their fixed costs, but forget about the spontaneous "I deserve it" spending that tends to happen on the weekend,' Vanderhall explained. 'This approach helps you feel your spending in real time, keep your non-bill budget in check, and make more intentional choices — all without killing your fun.' Another money trend known as the 'treat yourself tax' can help Americans control spending as it requires matching the cost of impulse buys to a savings deposit. Americans can also turn to the '1 percent rule' to control over spending, and consider using the 'one-tenth rule' when purchasing a car. Hundreds of Reddit users have already said that they would choose cash over cards any time they entered a bar. Tap-to-pay using apps like Apple Pay and Google Pay is a common payment method for Gen Z 'I've never once opened a tab at a bar. It honestly seems like such a weird and unusual thing to do to me, paying every time you go to the bar just makes way more sense,' a Gen Z Reddit member wrote. 'This is why cash is king. Don't need to worry about leaving your card at the bar,' a bargoer responded. 'Packed college town bar/crowded bar mid bar hop? Pay every time,' a commenter admitted. 'In countries that aren't stupid, you pay for every drink as you get it and that's that,' another person wrote. Others believe cash-only payment methods at bars are 'unreasonable' and make it 'extremely difficult' for bartenders. 'It creates a huge amount of pointless work for servers and bartenders, with the exact same outcome for you,' a Reddit user insisted. 'It's also massively inconsiderate and entitled.' 'This is an a** move on the customer part. You keep it open and close when you leave,' another person wrote regarding bar tabs.
