The company’s Australian operations will include community engagement, engineering, and sales teams, to be helmed by former WooliesX head strategist David Ray.
The move comes after an explosive growth in the site’s Australian userbase, led by interest in finance ‘subreddits’ like r/AusFinance and the looser r/ASX Bets.

Apple AirTags started appearing in Australian stores on Friday, Apr. 30. However, less than a week since it became officially available for purchase, we would not see any of them after a major retailer in the said country decided to pull them out of the shelves.

Apple has been conducting its annual event which features the upcoming products that people must witness. In this year s edition, the line-up has included Apple AirTags for its soon-to-be-released devices.
In Australia, many were baffled that this item did not last for a week before being removed from the shelf. According to the statement gathered by Tech Radar, an Officeworks spokesperson mentioned that the Apple AirTag will be withdrawn for the time being from its store.
A glitch in the machine multiplied the items he had scanned, leaving him with an eye-watering bill of $997.12, but it s his shopping list rather than the total that has raised eyebrows.
