We've partnered with FLOOSS, Bahrain's first instant loan service. Through this partnership, we aim to optimise their application processes, allowing consumers in the region to apply and get access to credit quickly and securely, delivering seamless experiences and boosting operational efficiency.
Together, we are transforming the lending landscape by making lending more accessible, powering the first open banking use case for lending in Bahrain, and enabling individuals to access loans instantly and effortlessly.
About FLOOSS
FLOOSS is the first loan app in Bahrain, licensed by the Central Bank of Bahrain, providing digital loans without the hassle of paperwork and lengthy processes, prioritising accessibility and efficiency for individuals seeking a straightforward borrowing experience. By prioritising digital loans, they offer consumers a user-friendly platform for convenient, anytime personal loan applications.
The Challenge
FLOOSS faced substantial challenges due to limited access to financial data. Necessitating manual submission of documents like proof of income and employment led to friction, drop-offs, and up to 2-week processing times before users had access to funds they’ve applied for.
Additionally, the burden of manually reviewing these documents added to the inefficiencies, spending around 20 to 30 minutes reviewing each set of manual documentation for loan applications. Overcoming these obstacles became imperative for FLOOSS to streamline operations, reduce processing times, and enhance the overall customer experience.
The Solution
Leveraging our Income Verification product, FLOOSS can quickly and securely determine a user's salary without the hassle of manual document uploads, reducing their processing times from 2 weeks to just 6 minutes. By allowing customers to connect their bank account(s) and share their transaction data via our APIs, applicants can enjoy a faster and more streamlined application and approval process.
With real-time access to secure and comprehensive financial data, FLOOSS gains valuable insights into its customers' financial position, enabling them to make quicker, safer, and more accurate decisions explicitly tailored to the individual's needs.
Traditionally, consumers can wait 1-4 weeks before accessing loans they've applied for. Through our partnership with FLOOSS, consumers can now secure a loan approval in just six minutes, eliminating lengthy approval processes and providing immediate access to funds.
