About
Built by someone who sat on the other side of the table.
Agents Wallet started with a frustration, not a whiteboard session.
As a property investor, I’ve spent years speaking with real estate agents across Australia — evaluating properties, exploring markets, and trying to build productive long-term relationships with professionals I genuinely wanted to work with. What struck me every single time was how few of them had any kind of consistent follow-up system. A good conversation would happen, and then nothing. No card in my wallet. No check-in when the right property came up. And if I wanted to refer a friend to an agent I trusted, there was no mechanism for that introduction to be tracked or acknowledged in any meaningful way.
Referrals were the most valuable leads in the business — and they were effectively happening by accident, or not at all.
As an entrepreneur, that gap was obvious. As a software engineer with over 25 years of experience building commercial and government systems, I knew exactly how to close it.
I’d already built this kind of infrastructure before. At Zeogly — my software company — I designed and built review follow-up funnels, automated email and SMS sequences, lead tracking systems, and CRM software for Australian small businesses. The core mechanics of Agents Wallet are not new territory for me. What’s new is applying them specifically to real estate, where the referral relationship is the single most valuable asset an agent has and where no purpose-built tool existed.
My broader professional background spans some of Australia’s most demanding software environments. I was part of the team that worked on the myGov platform at Services Australia, built regulatory document issuance systems at the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, developed patent processing applications at IP Australia, and wrote visa application systems at the Department of Immigration. These are environments where accuracy, security, and reliability are non-negotiable — and that is the standard I hold Agents Wallet to.
Agents Wallet is built and operated by Zeogly Pty Ltd, registered in the Australian Capital Territory.
