LendKey Technologies is a New York based digital lending platform that lets credit unions and community banks originate, fund and service consumer loans without building the technology themselves. Its network-lending model covers private student loans, student loan refinancing, home improvement lending and auto lending, and its ALIRO platform runs loan participations and post-origination liquidity between institutions. LendKey has surpassed $8 billion in loan originations. For integrators it operates a Kong Gateway fronted API estate published through a Kong Developer Portal at developer.lendkey.com, covering origination intake (leads, soft credit pull, credit attributes, scoring and application boarding), treasury management (loan inventory, disbursements, payments and capital ledger), and DocuSign backed e-signature contracts. Access is partner gated, with OAuth2 client-credentials credentials issued through the developer portal.
