How Fiskil Helps Global Platforms Build CDR-Compliant Products in Australia
For global fintechs, SaaS platforms, and embedded finance providers, Australia’s Consumer Data Right (CDR) offers a rich opportunity to access real-time financial and energy data—with consumer consent. But compliance requirements can be complex and time-consuming.
That’s where Fiskil comes in. As a registered Accredited Data Recipient (ADR), Fiskil provides the tools, APIs, and infrastructure you need to build CDR-compliant products quickly and securely.
The Opportunity: Build with CDR in Australia
The CDR framework enables businesses to:
- Access customer banking and energy data in real time
- Offer personalised financial insights
- Automate payment flows and provider switching
- Deliver embedded finance experiences
But only accredited entities—or those operating under a CDR Representative model—can access this data. Fiskil simplifies both routes.
