CIMET currently provides end-to-end comparison and switching of Energy, Telco, Credit Cards, Personal loans, and residential solar plans through its online platform in a B2B and B2C environment. It presently caters to various Brands/Providers and has several Partners. This portfolio will further expand over the next 18 months across financial services (loans and insurance products). The online comparison market is extremely crowded in Australia, with most comparators providing a light-touch directory solution. CIMET saw this as an opportunity and developed a fully integrated online comparison and signup platform in 2017.

Today, CIMET has around 220 resources across Australia, India, and the Philippines, and has grown to a topline of $25 million in FY2025. We have plans to list CIMET by 2030 and grow the company to a $1 bn enterprise.

We are ISO 27001 certified, an ACL license holder, and have been recognized in the AFR Fast 100 and Deloitte Fast 50.
