About
Lendsqr
The one thing we think
about non-stop at Lendsqr is how we can get every African access to loans just
when they need it. The incredible lives we hear about in developed countries
are anchored on ordinary citizens having access to loans to go to school, get their
first homes, cards, and even smartphones.
Over the last few
years, Lendsqr has been revolutionizing how everyone can get loans easily by
helping lenders with the technology, data, and services they need to launch
their digital lending at scale.
Top digital lenders
like Kredi Bank, Urgent10k, Irorun, and even Sterling Bank now depend on
Lendsqr to power their lending systems.
But we cannot do all
these without committed and incredibly smart people who share the same passion
and vision for Africa. We need you. Join us!
