Vision and mission
We are changing the way people and companies get loans
Our mission is to increase financial inclusion for rejected borrowers by connecting them with other credit providers
How we got here
What happens to loans that got rejected?
The existing model of the lending business is inefficient. There are more than a billion rejected loans per year globally, and all of them go to waste. Credit institutions are more focused on people with a high credit score than those in need – and that is wrong! This got us thinking, and soon the problem was turned into a creative business solution called Ninja Lender.
We can solve the gap in the financial industry!
We provide people and companies with new funding opportunities. But also help financial institutions reduce the wastage of loan applications. Our B2B platform matches data we received from a bank or lending company to other credit providers that can offer a loan. It has no extra costs for borrowers and it’s absolutely win-win situation for everyone.

Rejected loans can be saved!
Loan rejection is a highly unpleasant experience for many borrowers. Ninja Lender introduces a solution that allows rejected applications to be redirected to well-matched loan providers and thus gives some customers a chance to get financed.
Because of this mistake, banks can lose hundreds of thousands of customers a year
Loans. Hated topic. Endless forms, lengthy processes, one more paper is always needed, and then waiting… As if the mere thought of taking a loan was not difficult enough, the bank seems to complicate the whole process even more.
Ninja Lender, a new way to borrow money effectively?
The interview with Mariusz Hildebrand, Business Executive and Jaroslav Dubov, CEO at Ninja Lender 
How does ninja lender help banks fight the financial exclusion of borrowers?
Surely you know the saying that everyone deserves to be given a second chance. A person who made an unintentional mistake, an athlete who “missed” a major event, an apprentice who did not prepare for a test, and a potential loan or borrower who was denied funding.
We started our activity by researching the opinions of people associated with the financial industry
How did the idea for Ninja Lender arise? An interview with the startup’s founder, Yaroslav Dubov.

How to increase the scoring and increase the chances of obtaining the necessary financing?
