The Australian Collectors and Debt Buyers Association (ACDBA) was established for the benefit of companies who collect & buy debt. ACDBA's work in improving the collections environment (legislative & regulatory) provides appreciable benefits to members, clients and other practitioners.
Membership in ACDBA is voluntary and open to all interested collectors & buyers.

Code change
ACDBA’s Code of Practice will cease to apply to Subscribers’ collection transactions from 30 June 2023.
This decision recognises the extremely low number of Code complaints, redundancy of the Code’s purpose due to regulatory, legislative and other developments increasingly mirroring or eclipsing the code obligations together with the unsustainable financial impost of maintaining a code on a small member based association.
An important role for ACDBA is the provision of submissions to legislators and regulators providing an informed perspective from the industry with a view to improving the collections environment for all participants in the collections and debt buying industry in Australia.
