Mist

Mist is Australia's financial and lifestyle platform built exclusively for international students — and the driving force behind a new standard for proving genuine access to funds in the Australian student visa process.

Mist identified a structural gap in the international student journey: the existing methods for demonstrating financial capacity to the Department of Home Affairs were unreliable, there is no method to ensure that living expenses funds are actually brought to Australia and left students arriving in Australia with little or nothing to live on. In response, Mist developed the Proof of Funds Account — a purpose-built, ASIC-registered trust fund that holds the required AUD $29,710 in the student's own name in Australia, with monthly drawdown to a Commonwealth Bank account. Mist conducts rigorous KYC, AML, source-of-funds, and sanctions screening on every student and their sponsors.
