Better credit underwriting starts with Alloy
Standard consortium data is a given, but it is not enough. Alloy’s extensive ecosystem of over 200 data solutions leverages alternative underwriting data in tandem with traditional credit score information, so you can accept more applicants and continue to grow — while reducing risk to your business.
A holistic approach to credit underwriting
Alloy allows you to manage all credit decisions end-to-end and automate credit checks, starting at origination and continuing throughout the customer lifecycle — all from a single platform. With Alloy, you can confidently manage your portfolio risk while uncovering new revenue opportunities.
Streamline your onboarding and credit underwriting processes
With KYC/KYB, fraud, and credit application information in a singular dashboard, Alloy enables you to seamlessly manage your applicants from KYC checks and identity verification to credit evaluations all within a single system.
Transform complex credit policies
Get started with easy configurations that transform your credit policies into clean workflows — no coding required post-implementation. Build anything from basic workflows to complex matrix models directly in Alloy, or import your own custom models. Through Alloy Journeys, you can offload as much of your state management as you want to Alloy by linking multiple workflow and actions together within a single configuration to reduce customer friction.
Integrate alternative data sources to increase lending opportunities
Alloy can help you safely verify and underwrite new customer segments. Our platform’s connection to multiple alternative data solutions, including transactional bank data, cash flow data, online employment verification services, and utility payment history, among others, enables you to expand your funnel and convert more customers. This not only contributes to your growth, it makes financial services more accessible to the general population.
Automate ongoing credit checks
By automating creditworthiness assessments and financial behavior on a continuous basis, you can monitor customer behavior, identify new credit opportunities, improve operational efficiency, and proactively offer credit. Alloy’s automated, scheduled credit checks alert you to changes in customer behavior.
- Monitor customer behavior to better detect and reduce default risk, avoiding negative impacts to revenue
- Identify existing customers who qualify for additional credit offers or new product opportunities
- Improve operational efficiency and track the health of your portfolio at scale
- Proactively offer credit opportunities without requiring a formal application process or incurring unnecessary risk
- Personalize and tailor these pre-qualified offers to each customer's specific needs for a seamless and convenient experience
Test and iterate for optimal performance
Backtest and see the impact of workflow changes before they go live, A/B test different versions of your workflows to see which performs better, or shadow test a new policy in tandem with current policies. You will always be confident that any changes function as expected and deliver the results you want.
