This announcement comes after LoanPro’s accelerated growth over the past 12 months, with 600 lenders on LoanPro’s platform today. Banks and credit unions have fueled the recent growth as these organizations search for platforms that allow them to innovate quickly and scale operations more efficiently.

“LoanPro is uniquely positioned to disrupt financial services as we know them today,” said Colton. “The financial services industry is full of vendors that handcuff financial organizations from innovation, causing them to execute within predefined criteria leading to slow launch cycles and frustrated end consumers. Here at LoanPro, we excel at empowering lenders to launch new and innovative lending programs quickly with our configurable, API-first lending platform.”
