Who we are

Lendspedia is a free online loan comparison marketplace, operated by Solcertain LLC in the United States. We are not a mortgage lender, broker, or creditor — we match borrowers with licensed, NMLS-verified lenders who compete for their business. Matching uses a soft credit pull only (no score impact), and using Lendspedia is always free for borrowers. We are paid a referral fee by lenders, and our algorithm ranks lenders by fit for you, not by who pays us the most.

Make Comparison Shopping Automatic

Nearly 8 in 10 borrowers accept the first rate they're offered — leaving an average of $3,000+ on the table over the life of a loan (Freddie Mac, 2023). We built Lendspedia to fix that. Answer a few questions once, and we put licensed lenders in competition for your loan, so the best rate finds you instead of the other way around.

How Lendspedia Makes Money

Borrowers pay us nothing. Here's exactly how the model works — and why it stays unbiased.

Aligned with the borrower
01

Free for Borrowers

You never pay a fee to use Lendspedia, complete the assessment, or receive rate quotes. There are no application charges and no obligation at any stage.

02

Lenders Pay a Referral Fee

Lenders in our network pay us a referral fee when they connect with a matched borrower. That's standard for loan marketplaces — and it's why the service is free for you.

03

Ranked by Fit, Not by Pay

Our matching algorithm ranks lenders by how well they fit your profile and goals — never by who pays us the most. Competition among lenders is what drives your rate down.

NMLS-Verified Lenders Only

Every Lender Is Licensed and Vetted

We don't let just anyone into the network. Every partner lender must clear our standards before they can receive a single borrower match.

  • Active NMLS registration required
  • Onboarding review and minimum customer-satisfaction scoring
  • Transparent rate and fee disclosure
  • Agreement to our fair-lending code of conduct
  • TCPA-compliant, consent-based borrower contact
