About the Company

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money.
We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start.
One of the UK’s newest unicorns with a team of just over 700 people.
Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK.
Profitable since 2017.
Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs.
Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot).
We’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance.
We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.
We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.
