Who Is Kixup Repairs?
Our Story
Ah, the tale of Kixup Repairs - a charming blend of technology, happy accidents, and a plucky entrepreneur. Rewind to 2011, when our protagonist Andrew Frahm tinkered away to fix his iPhone 4. Despite losing some screws, he emerged victorious.
Fate knocked on Andrew's door, disguised as a failed crowd-funded attempt for Kixup Online Budgeting, an app that never took flight. But the name Kixup clung to Andrew like glue - and fast-forward to 2014, he became the unofficial phone-fixing wizard for pals and kin.
And then, the mighty forces of word-of-mouth turned Kixup iPhone Repairs from garage-sized enterprise to repairing slayer, with Telstra's shop in Mount Isa sending business his way. And so, the legend of Kixup grew, and the garage? Well, it shrank in comparison.
Enter 2016: The dawn of our swanky new office on West Street, Mount Isa. Though thriving, our name apparently screamed "iPhones only, please!".
So, *abracadabra* Kixup iPhone Repairs transformed into Kixup Repairs.
Fast forward three years, one fancy relocation to Simpson Street, three trusty sidekicks, and 6,000 triumphant repairs later, Kixup Repairs continues to save the digital day!
Celebrating 7 sizzling years in business, we've just unleashed a shiny new store in Gladstone, QLD! Unveiled in March 2021, it's a lovechild of our relentless drive to keep folks across the continent connected with their dear ones (all through the magic of those nifty little devices that snugly fit in our pockets).

Natalie's partner is a FIFO worker, and they have two cheeky kiddos, Tayden and Kirby, who are responsible for keeping her on her toes (and her grey hairs coming through). All in all, we reckon Natalie is an absolute rockstar and we're stoked to have her on our team. alike for us at Kixup! 😉
