Income and Expense Categorisation

Streamline your lending processes and make more informed decisions at every step of the credit lifecycle

Income and Expenses

Overview

Customers expect better, quicker and more personalised experiences across the credit lifecycle. To help meet these expectations, lenders require an accurate view of their customers’ finances, with an understanding of what they earn, spend, save and what they can afford to repay when they borrow

Using our super-fast API you can automate the identification of income and expenses in your own data to streamline your lending processes and make more informed decisions at every step of the credit lifecycle.

Reduce underwriting time and improve the accuracy of your decisions

Automatically categorising transactional data gives you invaluable insights into the financial wellbeing of your customers and prospects. It helps you understand a customer’s income, expenditure and credit behaviour, providing a detailed picture of their financial circumstances and resilience. This can help you acquire customers faster by saving your customers time with pre-filled information and reduce application form drop off, and helps you monitor affordability throughout the life of the loan so you can proactively provide support and services when they need it.
