InDebted is changing the world of consumer debt recovery for good.  Our philosophy understands that while consumer expectations have changed, traditional debt collection hasn’t. From accessing credit to buying new shoes, todays consumers opt for transactions that are frictionless, flexible and digital-first.  Meanwhile, the traditional debt collection industry hasnt evolved from outdated communication methods, intrusive tactics, and pressuring experiences. This results in low collections, poor customer engagement, and high compliance and reputational risk.  At InDebted, we’re changing the experience of being in debt, by creating a better way for businesses to support consumers through it. Our Collect product delivers up to 40% increased recovery performance, while being the world’s highest rated debt collection solution for customer experience.  Offering the only multi-market compliant and scalable solution for global or enterprise businesses, InDebted is operational in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada. InDebted was founded in Australia in 2016 by our CEO, Josh Foreman. Fast forward to today, and InDebted has completed four funding rounds totalling $70+ million AUD, we’ve grown to a team of over 200 people living and working in 11 countries around the world.
