Joshua Pevy
Founder & CEO
Joshua Pevy is the founder of CompareThat. Before starting the site he spent more than five years at InfoChoice Group, the business behind Savings.com.au, YourMortgage.com.au and InfoChoice.com.au, managing campaigns for many of Australia's major banks and lenders. That work showed him how comparison sites run from the inside: how lenders supply their rates, how products end up placed on a page, and where the commercial side meets what a reader actually sees. CompareThat is the version he wanted to exist. Bank and lender rates come straight from the product data they publish under the Consumer Data Right, and any paid arrangement is labelled as a Sponsored Placement. Before InfoChoice, Joshua led the APAC publisher network at performance marketing group Optimise Media, working his way up from Account Executive to Head of Network. He has 15 years' experience in digital partnerships and marketing across financial services, e-commerce and digital media, and is based in Brisbane.
