== Early life ==
He was born in Melbourne, Australia, the son and oldest child of Plumber Greg Kenneth Hales (1950–present) and Lorraine Joy Hales (1953–present). Hales grew up in Melbourne until he was 5 when he moved to the seaside town of Point Lonsdale, Victoria. He attended Catholic Regional College in Geelong before at fifteen, Hales and his family moved to Noosa Heads, Queensland. Out of school he became a qualified Scuba Dive Master to pay the bills. During 2005, Hales went for a year-long journey to Europe and North America before returning to Australia in 2006. Back in Australia with little money he saved, Hales moved to Brisbane. Living in Brisbane, his network grew and he became friends with Ben Lawton and Matthew Wick. During this time, Hales looked towards setting up his own company and in late 2011 Hales started the ground-work for Tappr with the $18,000 he had saved.〔 During 2011, Hales travelled on holiday to Hong Kong〔〔 and while there was acclimatised to Hong Kong's Octopus Transit Card System. Hales envisioned the idea of a transit payment solution that predominately uses smart phones via NFC (near field communication) as the method of transacting while integrating into the emerging mobile payment landscape. This concept was the start of Tappr.〔〔("River City Labs Making Money on Mobile" ), River City Labs, Retrieved 11 August 2013.〕〔("Shoe String Start Up of the Year 2013" ), August 2013.〕
