Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does a platform offering embedded credit need its own lending license?

If the credit is fully funded, underwritten, and managed by a licensed bank partner behind the scenes, the tech platform may operate as a technology provider or agent, avoiding direct licensing, subject to clear disclosures.
