Loan App

Demonstrating Argyle solutions for loan origination and servicing.

Loan App takes you through a loan application from an applicant's perspective when Argyle is used.

Real-time credit decisions take place after the loan applicant connects to their employer or payroll platform, which sends their employment information to the lender through Argyle.

Argyle's direct deposit switching feature then allows the applicant the option to send a portion of their paycheck to their new loan provider.

This guide takes you through the application step by step, so you can learn about Argyle's solutions and how they can be incorporated into your lending system.

Demo Loan App in your browser, or visit our Github repository to clone and test Loan App in your local development environment.

Before you begin#

After opening Loan App, an initial settings screen allows for customizing the application experience.

Enabling “bank verification” will add a step to the application showing how you could invite borrowers to connect their bank accounts for further verification.

Enabling “direct deposit update for paycheck-linked lending” will allow the loan applicant to direct a portion of their paycheck to their new loan provider.

Skip ahead#

For each screen, you can go to the next page by clicking next or the equivalent button at the bottom, without needing to fill in all required info.

Connecting payroll accounts#

On the employment screen, the employer search bar auto-populates suggestions as the loan applicant types. If they select a known employer, Argyle's allows you to directly connect them via deep-linking to their employment or payroll account. This streamlines the process of income verification.

Connecting to an employer requires using the “test credentials” highlighted in yellow at the top of the employer's login screen. These are real-time connections running off Argyle's Sandbox testing environment.

Requiring further verification#

If your loan application has additional verification flows, such as requesting a credit report or bank account verification, these are shown in Loan App as well.

Paycheck-linked repayment#

If you enabled “direct deposit update for paycheck-linked lending” in the initial settings screen, loan approval will bring up the pay distribution screen. This screen demonstrates Argyle's paycheck-linked lending abilities. Here the applicant can decide which portion of their paycheck they want to allocate to their new loan.

Completion#

Once a loan applicant's employment account has been connected and their paycheck allocation has been set, a standard contract example and completion page are shown.
