Lendsquare

Lendsquare was a community-lending / peer-to-peer lending startup surfaced as a portfolio company of 500 Global and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub for enrichment. The company is defunct. As of the 2026-07-19 enrichment pass lendsquare.com no longer hosts a product - the domain is parked on GoDaddy/Afternic nameservers (NS1.AFTERNIC.COM) and every path redirects to a "/lander" for-sale page, so there is no website, developer portal, documentation, or API surface to catalog. The only surviving first-party artifact is the dormant GitHub organization github.com/lendsquare, created 2013-07-09 and last updated 2015-04-24, holding two Ruby repositories that are third-party libraries the team consumed rather than APIs it published - "area" (place / area-code / zip conversion) and "dwolla-ruby" (Dwolla's official Ruby API wrapper), the latter indicating Lendsquare moved money via the Dwolla API. This profile is retained as a historical, defunct record; no API artifacts were generated because none exist to capture.

Lendsquare is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Defunct, Lending, Peer to Peer Lending, and Financial Services.
