Ubank wins Australian Mortgage Awards ‘Fintech Lender of the Year’
Digital bank, Ubank has been named Fintech Lender of the Year at the 2025 Australian Mortgage Awards (AMA), a prestigious recognition of its broker-first innovation and leadership in digital lending.
The award recognises outstanding achievement in digital lending innovation and the transformative impact of fintech solutions across the mortgage industry.
Earlier this year, Ubank delivered its fully rebuilt broker lodgement platform, designed in collaboration with brokers and launched as the first of its kind in the market.
Purpose-built to drive broker productivity, the platform streamlines the entire lodgement process with intuitive workflows, automation, and flexible navigation — helping brokers lodge faster, reduce friction, and spend more time with clients.
George Srbinovski, Head of Broker Distribution at Ubank, said the award is a proud moment for the team and a strong validation of their efforts to optimise the broker lodgement experience.
“This recognition reflects our commitment to delivering real value to the broker community through innovative technology and tailored support from our dedicated Business Development Managers,” Srbinovski said.
Key features of Ubank’s broker lodgement platform include:
- Industry-first Broker Flow tool: Uses Illion BankStatements data already collected by brokers to verify income and expenses, removing duplication and saving time across the board.
- Single customer touchpoint: Customers can complete Verification of Identity, consent, and bank statement tasks in one place — reducing confusion and delays.
- Intuitive and flexible design: The platform’s streamlined interface allows brokers to lodge confidently while its unlocked workflow lets them navigate freely between sections.
Ubank’s new lodgement platform hasn’t just transformed the broker experience through speed and efficiency — it’s also elevated the customer journey. Faster turnaround times and simplified digital touchpoints make the property process smoother and less stressful, giving home buyers greater confidence from application to approval.
“These innovations reflect Ubank’s commitment to delivering meaningful value at every stage of the home ownership journey. From first-home buyers to financially savvy young Australians investing in property, Ubank is proud to support the next generation of homeowners and honoured to be recognised as Fintech Lender of the Year at the Australian Mortgage Awards,” Srbinovski said.
The AMA ‘Fintech Lender of the Year’ award comes after Ubank’s recent win at the MFAA Fintech Lender of the Year Award for the fourth year in a row. The bank also won Money Magazine’s Bank of the Year – Product in the 2025 Consumer Finance Awards for the third consecutive year underscoring its reputation as a leading digital bank with products and services that resonate with its customers and professionals across the mortgage and finance sector.
