Sidetrade, a company from France that provides AI-powered Order-to-Cash (O2C) software, has agreed to buy all the shares of ezyCollect, an O2C solutions provider based in Sydney, Australia.
This deal will help Sidetrade expand its business into the Asia-Pacific region, adding to its strong presence in Europe and North America.
ezyCollect currently works with more than 1,100 small and medium businesses (SMBs) and helps manage about A$19 billion in B2B payments across 320,000 customers.
Olivier Novasque, Sidetrade’s founder and CEO, said: “With ezyCollect, Sidetrade has all the assets required to achieve its global ambitions. This acquisition opens immediate access to Asia-Pacific while enhancing our ability to support multinational clients in the region.”
Founded in 2014, ezyCollect offers complete Order-to-Cash (O2C) solutions, helping businesses manage credit risk, collections, and online payments. Its technology makes B2B payments faster and easier by supporting digital transactions. The company has an 89% client retention rate and helps clients reduce late payments by 40% and bad debt by 80% within just three months of joining.
In 2025, ezyCollect expects to earn about A$14 million in revenue, a 28% increase from 2024, and plans to reach EBITDA break-even by the end of the year. The company also forecasts A$18 million in revenue for 2026, representing 29% growth year-on-year.
Sidetrade plans to combine its agentic AI technology, Aimie with ezyCollect’s platform to strengthen its offerings worldwide and boost revenue growth. ezyCollect’s leadership team will continue to manage the new integrated product, “ezyCollect by Sidetrade,” focusing on mid-sized businesses while maintaining the company’s innovative and entrepreneurial culture. The integration will officially take effect retroactively from October 1.
By 2026, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to contribute about 13% of Sidetrade’s total revenue, while France will account for around 25%, creating a more balanced global presence. Sidetrade’s AI, Aimie, will automate financial operations — sending reminders, tracking payments, spotting delays, and adjusting responses — all without human involvement, making collections faster and smarter.
Arjun Singh, CEO and co-founder of ezyCollect, said: “Joining Sidetrade is a major step forward for ezyCollect and a leap for mid-market companies. With the power of Aimie agents, our clients will gain efficiency and intelligence previously reserved for large enterprises.”
The combined product will now cover the entire Order-to-Cash (O2C) process, offering two key solutions — Sidetrade’s Augmented Cash for large companies and ezyCollect by Sidetrade for mid-sized businesses. Sidetrade’s vast Data Lake, which already analyses over US$7.2 trillion in B2B transactions, will now include data from Asia-Pacific markets. This will help improve the accuracy and independence of its AI tools across the world.
With this integration, Sidetrade will also add ezyCollect’s digital payment module to its platform, creating a fully digital O2C workflow from invoicing to collections. This acquisition marks Sidetrade’s tenth and biggest deal so far, valued at around €37 million, including both an initial payment and a possible earn-out through 2028.
