AUSTRALIAN CRICKETER JUSTIN LANGER has been announced as the brand ambassador for Nivicap, a newly-launched digital solutions platform for students.
Developed by the founder of Ziksu Australia, one of the country’s fintech brands, NiviCap expects to bridge India and Australia’s education ecosystems through a comprehensive suite of non-banking solutions. Designed to support both students and parents from pre-admission to post-arrival, it brings together services such as loan discovery, application assistance, forex guidance, and post-arrival support under one secure digital solutions platform, a media release said.
Further strengthening the Australia–India education partnership, the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), Australia’s national trade and investment promotion agency, supported the launch of NiviCap. Australia continues to be a preferred international education destination for Indian students, due to its world-class universities, multicultural inclusivity, and post-study work opportunities.
India is now the second-largest source country for international students in Australia, with approximately 137,703 students from India commencing or continuing study in 2025. Despite such strong demand, the process of education financing and associated requirements remains fragmented. NiviCap aims to simplify this journey with a unified, trustworthy, and transparent platform, empowering families, especially from Tier-II and Tier-III cities, to pursue their overseas dreams with clarity and confidence, the release said.
Karthik Srinivasan, Founder, NiviCap, shared, “As an Indian-born Australian, I’ve lived the same journey that thousands of students take every year, filled with excitement, but also anxiety. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can be to handle documentation, manage finances across countries, and deal with the emotional toll of being far from home. I’ve seen how these challenges can make dreams feel distant. Those experiences stayed with me and shaped my professional journey. Having worked in banking across India and Australia, I witnessed how complex regulations and cross-border systems often make these transitions even harder. When I later represented Australia in fintech at the G20, it reaffirmed my belief that innovation, when built with empathy, can truly solve real human challenges. NiviCap was created with that very vision, not just as a digital solutions platform, but as a bridge between aspiration and achievement. ‘Fast. Fair. Family Approved.’ isn’t just a promise; it’s personal.”
Justin Langer, former Australian cricket coach, said, “As both a father and a coach, I understand the emotions that come with watching young people chase big dreams away from home. India and Australia share a bond that goes beyond sport, it’s built on trust, respect, and shared ambition. NiviCap captures that beautifully. To me, NiviCap is like a great coach, steady, reliable, and always there when the pressure is on. It gives students the confidence to perform and parents the reassurance that their children are in safe hands. That’s why I’m proud to stand with a brand that champions both ambition and care.”
