LendKey Selects BillingPlatform to Modernize and Scale Billing

The Pioneering Digital Network for Consumer Lending Replaces Legacy System with Advanced Monetization Solution Designed to Support the Complexities of LendKey’s Business Model

BillingPlatform, the leader in enterprise monetization, announced that LendKey has selected its Billing solution in a multi-year agreement. LendKey chose BillingPlatform to enhance automation, accelerate validation of new billing logic, and position its infrastructure to seamlessly scale and support new products and continued growth.

With more than $8 billion in loans through hundreds of credit unions and community banks, LendKey offers a comprehensive platform for consumer loans, including private student loans, student loan refinancing and home improvement loans. The company’s digital network lending model enables local lenders to access a national market of borrowers while maintaining the focus on their local communities. Through its innovative ALIRO platform, LendKey provides turnkey solutions that allow financial institutions to expand their product portfolios without increasing infrastructure.

As LendKey’s deal volume and network of lending institutions grew, the company saw a chance to update its old billing system to better match its fast growth and focus on innovation. The previous system, which relied on spreadsheets, macros and custom code, had worked well but needed more support as pricing models and loan structures became more complex. By investing in an innovative approach, LendKey is making pricing updates easier, cutting down on manual work, and improving its ability to react quickly in a changing market.
