The company says the 111.1 per cent rise in gross sales was driven by continued growth in active customers which reached a new record of 894,225 at 30 June 2021, growing in excess of 83.1 per cent on the prior year.
The company's private label sales also made a strong contribution to gross sales of $8.8 million during the division's first year.
"We have placed ourselves in an enviable position to harness the increased demand and ongoing transition to e-commerce, with active customers now exceeding 894,000," MyDeal.com.au CEO and founder Sean Senvirtne said.
