LenderKit is a flexible white-label investment software for crowdfunding platforms, private equity and venture capital firms that want to automate operations, attract more investors and fundraisers and close more private capital deals.
Before LenderKit, we focused on the custom fintech software development services using our in-house team.
Having developed around 10 custom crowdfunding platforms between 2015 and 2017, we decided to create a solution that would consolidate our experience into one software framework for investment firms.
The software would help our clients reduce the development costs and speed up the process of launching new crowdfunding platforms for regulatory sandboxes and beyond.
We’ve done some competitor analysis and found out that most of the crowdfunding solution providers focused on pure SaaS white-label platforms. It worked well for local markets, but for the international ones, an opportunity for customization would be a much better choice.
So, we’ve built a prototype and started conducting demo sessions.
We decided to focus on the UK as our primary market due to its maturity and proven appetite for crowdfunding solutions. As planned, we got out first client that launched on LenderKit.
Between 2018 and 2019, we went all into development and created a robust white-label crowdfunding framework that allowed our clients to set up a portal quickly.
We heavily modified the prototype, added more features and functionality, fully redesigned the portal’s architecture and improved security.
In 2019, we partnered with the leading payment gateways – MangoPay, LemonWay, Goji Investments and other providers.
Apart from that, we integrated LenderKit with the CMS and developed 4 website templates to help our clients get started quickly. We’ve also tapped into other markets such as the MENA, mainly, Saudi Arabia and UAE and started making first steps in the USA market. Also this year, some of our first clients Forus and Camly went live.
In 2020, we completely rebuilt the LenderKit software architecture and developed more investment flows, security features, and functionality like GDPR module, permissions, auto-investing and many more. We also redesigned the admin back office and investor portal and built a mobile app prototype.
One of our clients, Charm Impact, launched a crowdfunding platform and raised 272% of their target amount on CrowdCube.
In November 2020, we got published in the Microsoft Marketplace.
In 2021, we tailored LenderKit software to help our clients ease up compliance requirements worldwide. More precisely, we released the US and EU compliance modules.
For the US market, we released new functionality that supports Reg CF, A, D and S regulation types.
Also this year, European Commission adopted new crowdfunding rules for ECSPs. To prepare for the market changes, we updated LenderKit and were the first to launch a regulatory compliance module for European crowdfunding platforms and investment marketplaces.
We’ve also significantly improved the out-of-box package and included support of payment gateways such as Lemonway, FundAmerica and MANGOPAY and also KYC providers such as Jumio. Apart from that, we’ve built a blockchain integration with Polymath.
On the features side, we added private data room, appropriateness test, wallet-based and direct investing, multi-language support and more.
With the updated software architecture and more flexibility, we also introduced better pricing options to new customers worldwide.
In 2022, we focused on strategic, technology and branding expansion. While 7 of our customers went live in the US, UK, Europe and even New Zealand, we kept creating new features to enhance our services and crowdfunding software capabilities.
We introduced cap table management, universal login, anti-bot protection, agreement builder, partnered and integrated with North Capital to offer escrow and custody solutions in the US.
In terms of media and offline presence, we’ve visited the 7th EuroCrowd Conference in Spain. We’ve also run an annual survey among crowdfunding platforms through our sister project CrowdSpace that has now become the largest European crowdfunding platform directory which features over 450 marketplaces.
We started building our SaaS-architecture which will allow us to scale multiple successful business models on top of our core software. Apart from it, we’ve deepened our focus on asset tokenization as a part of the Web3 concept and developed a stronger partnership with Polymath, P2P Securities and Fortress.
Research and development was one of the areas where we remained consistent. In partnership with the Crowdfunding Research Center of University of Agder led by Professor Rotem Shneor and our sister brand, Crowdspace, we launched the fourth annual crowdfunding survey in a row. Once again, it aimed to encourage data transparency and knowledge sharing among the European crowdfunding platforms.
Product-wise, there have been a lot of new features including UBO, improved offering management, a ton of security and usability updates as well as new integrations.
