• Integrates with leading HR tech platforms Teamtailor and HiBob
• Aims to drive recurring transactional volume and enhance client retention
• Expands Xref's global reach and validates enterprise readiness

Xref Limited (ASX: XF1) is pleased to announce the launch of two major strategic integrations with two of the world's fastest-growing HR technology platforms: Teamtailor and HiBob. The integration with Teamtailor and HiBob serves as a core pillar of Xref's strategy to transition toward a high-margin, API-driven revenue model. By embedding Xref's automated verification tools directly into the daily workflows of recruiters, the Company aims to drive recurring transactional volume, enhance retention via ecosystem lock-in, and expand its data engine. The integrations provide Xref with direct 'one-click' access to a global ecosystem of over 13,500 enterprise companies and 200,000 active recruiters, enabling immediate, low-cost expansion into high-value growth markets across North America, the UK, and Europe. Partnering with Tier-1 global HR tech providers also validates the security, scalability, and reliability of Xref's infrastructure for mission-critical recruitment environments. Xref Founder and CEO, Lee-Martin Seymour, stated that the integrations allow the company to deliver automated, trusted verification exactly where recruiters work, driving high-margin API revenue while significantly reducing the time-to-hire for a massive new global user base.

The integrations with Teamtailor and HiBob are expected to drive recurring transactional volume, enhance client retention, and expand Xref's global reach and data engine. While the immediate revenue impact is subject to variable client activation rates, the partnerships are considered strategically material due to the significant scale factors they provide.
