Who we are?

We have pooled together our expertise in Banking, Finance, IT and Social Media Marketing to bring together Lenders and Borrowers in the Education Finance sector and offer them a superior product and service offering.

Why did we start Lendwise?

The incumbent loan offering from high street banks for Higher Education is negligible to non-existent and ill-served. A loan for education at a reasonable rate gives the opportunity to young graduates to enhance their skills and augment their earnings capability without burdening them with unfair loan terms.

Lendwise will serve borrowers and lenders in the education finance sector and help achieve their goals!
