Lending is a game of data – if you know as much as possible about your customer, you can make a good decision about whether to give a loan, how much to give, or even for how long to give or not to give.
However, getting this data is harder than breaking a coconut with one’s head. It’s either that the data is hard to find or very expensive. Many of the lenders that have tried to use “open banking data providers” have seen how unreliable and expensive this can be.
This time, we have solved half of it. What if you could get cheap, extremely reliable, and fast data about your customers? What if you could see the other bank accounts they never even mentioned? The one where some of the loans they didn’t disclose are hiding.
By the way, we aren’t the first to solve this problem. But we are the first to solve it well and make it available to our web lenders as well.
Oraculi SDK is our software development kit that powers this data access and insights. It is available for Android lending apps and also web apps that run on our Lendsqr lending platform.
And we’re able to do all these in the most ethical way possible. For every data we get from the customer, they provide informed and explicit consent.
Furthermore, our cost is the lowest in Africa because we know that lending requires the most cost-effective yet efficient systems, data, and processes for lenders to succeed.
We charge in local currency, and lenders pay per use. There is zero cost for no hits; we don’t make money when you don’t get any data.
If you’re a non-profit or development finance institution (DFI), it should be easier to run a lending program if you're already doing the hard part of reaching people most others won’t.
So what is Lendsqr, and how does it work? What makes Lendsqr the go-to platform for lending? Explore its key features and how they can help you build a thriving loan business.
