LNDDO Digital Lending Limited, Abu Dhabi-based pioneer of digital lending for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) has teamed up with Magnati, a regional leader in the payment solutions industry, to strengthen the SME sector by improving their access to capital.
The partnership leverages strategic synergies between the two companies, enabling LNDDO to grant more SMEs in the UAE quick and easy access to working capital finance.
LNDDO uses advanced analytics and various business-to-business (B2B) strategic collaborations, such as the venture with Magnati, to offer an exceptional level of service to its SME customers. Magnati and LNDDO have curated an efficient way of digitally onboarding customers and providing instant funding decisions.
With this collaboration, LNDDO customers do not need to physically visit a branch to make a loan application. Magnati will introduce automated digital credit and payment processes that make the lending application even more swift and seamless for LNDDO’s customers so that they can do this on a smartphone or computer from the comfort of their home or office.
The partnership between LNDDO and Magnati uses API integrations and automated credit underwriting algorithms to significantly shorten the loans decision process to a matter of minutes, from up to eight weeks previously.
Further, LNDDO helps smaller creditworthy businesses build up their credit history. Corporations who may not have been able to access funding in the past can receive a helping hand in the form of accessible financing and use it to further scale up and grow their companies.
