By Pavithra R

OppLoans, a leading fintech platform that powers banks to help middle income, credit-challenged consumers gain access to credit, has announced three new partnerships with Experian, Steady, and BillShark.

OppLoans, through the partnership with these mission-aligned organizations, expects to help customers build a better financial path through more financial resources, education and support. OppLoans will utilize:

• Experian Boost, a free to use product that allows customers to potentially improve their FICO Score with alternative data. Customers can connect their telecom and utility accounts as well as some streaming services to impact their credit scores through on-time payments instantly.
• Steady delivering the power of worker-focused data and technology tools into the hands of its members to help solve their increasing income challenges. It makes it easier for workers to fill their income gaps, gain insights into their income, and improve their overall financial well-being.
• BillShark, a leader in the bill reduction marketplace, offering customers profit by negotiating lower rates on internet, mobile, pay-tv, alarm, and other similar service bills and cancelling unwanted subscriptions. 

“OppLoans prides itself in delivering an exceptional customer experience, and it is important that we help support customers who may be experiencing additional financial difficulties beyond credit access. By expanding the tools and education we provide through partnerships with Experian Boost, Steady, and BillShark, we can deliver these valuable financial resources to customers easily and effectively through our platform,” said Natasha Anand, vice president of social impact, OppLoans.

The partnership is built on OppLoans’ newly created social impact strategy where it focuses its efforts on mission-aligned collaborations that can directly help consumers mitigate additional financial difficulties and provide financial wellness education. The company also partners with SpringFour, a FinTech that connects customers to trusted financial resources to build financial wellness. 

“All of our partners support our company mission to build financial inclusion and credit access and to help customers graduate to a better financial path,” adds Anand.

Founded in 2012, OppLoans is a FinTech platform focused on helping middle income, credit-challenged consumers build a better financial path. The company’s mission is to provide financial inclusion to the middle income, credit-challenged consumer through the best available products and an unwavering commitment to customers.
