June 2026 Update (Issue #10)
Our targets are set on this whole new version of Mateship that continues to reimagine how you discover products.
We've also finalised all the intricacies of our integration with PARCELPOINT. We also continue to expand the number of partnerships/integrations we have, as well as the degree to which we work with each.

May 2026 Update (Issue #9)
We had a remarkably successful Retail Fest. ~25 merchants that want to see more in a meeting.
We're building a whole different way to discover. When you try it, it's obvious where the future is headed.
It's just about getting enough people to try it more and more.
We're listening closely to our customers. More improvements happening with a full new version in the works.

April 2026 Update (Issue #8)
We've now created the Mateship Map. This is no ordinary map. This is the Mateship Map.
Zoom into Bondi, Fitzroy, Burleigh Heads, Gold Coast, Fortitude Valley, and Mosman.
See what others are buying. Influence driven by people like you and I. See what products and stores other shoppers across Australia are buying right now. Now made way more visual with the beautiful Mateship map.

March 2026 Update (Issue #7)
We've heard your feedback and we're improving the live feed of what everyone's buying. Now you can see what's happening Australia-wide, as well as what is bought at your favourite stores.
We've also added 3 tiers of hype worth noticing. What's really popular in the last 6 hours, 2 hours and 15 minutes. Just imagine those hyped up product drops, or those Black Friday like discounts. Surfaces what people love very quickly.

February 2026 Update (Issue #6)
There's billions of products out there. What should you buy? The faster we can get you to your next favourite product, the less regrets, less wasted time and lost money.
We think we've found the fastest way to your favourite products. The greatest signal, now available to all to see.
Now you can see what other shoppers are buying right now.
Find your next favourites and hidden gems the moment your neighbours, colleagues, and classmates do. Australia's taste based on what they actually buy. Not what influencers say they like, not what fake reviews think are great. We've removed the noise.

January 2026 Update (Issue #5)
It's going to be a big year ahead. Lots of incredible things planned. We've got our eyes set on building an even better shopper experience, merchant experience and community experience.
Three sided marketplaces are tough, but we're breaking through. Next month something absolutely epic is coming.
Just when you thought we should've taken January a little easy, we didn't. We continued to ship out some more highly asked for features.

December 2025 Update (Issue #4)
This wraps the 2025 seasons. This year has been epic. We finalised building our app, launched with 100 merchants, and amassed 3,800+ communities with some major partnerships like ParcelPoint, UNSW, GPT Group, UniLodge, and Iglu.
We have some amazing things in our development pipeline. One thing we assure you, and we've consistently assured you with Mateship is that you've never seen anything like it. Because, you can't break barriers without innovation.
The best recommendations are often trapped in private conversations. 2026 will be the year where we let word of mouth fly. It'll be able to scale like you've never seen before.

November 2025 Update (Issue #3)
The most heartbreaking feedback we saw from our shoppers was when they weren't able to find a Community Hotspot that was right for them. They didn't work, study, gym, or live at any of our current Community Hotspots.
This month we've brought something INCREDIBLE. Mateship is NOW AVAILABLE to EVERYONE!
It drastically expands our coverage so that 100% of metro areas and ~81% of Australia nationwide can enjoy free shipping and secure after-hours pick up. Shoppers can enjoy the convenience of collecting orders from their local newsagency, pharmacy, or convenience store without feeling in fear of losing their parcel or getting carded. All through our integration of Mateship.

October 2025 Update (Issue #2)
We had a 100% open rate on our first email update. In-san-it-y.
Similar to the Afterpay badge you see on the product page of a lot of websites, we've created one for Mateship. We've been testing this out and the difference is significant. Stores with the Mateship badge convert sales that would’ve been lost.
How do we know? We called customers directly and asked.
We're also launching something really soon that will drastically improve the number of communities available to customers. It changes the game completely.

September 2025 Update (Issue #1)
We have to do a remarkable job of not one, but both sides of the equation... we need stores and customers at the same time.
That's no simple task. But it's what makes Mateship so special. Our vision of getting new customers and discovering new products is incredible, but it will take time.
Right now we have 100+ stores live across nutrition, activewear, health, food & drink, fashion and health & beauty. We've also exceeded our own expectations since launch, having thousands of customers sign up to the app and even seen some purchases... insane!!
