Our client, a pioneer in reshaping consumer credit using innovative technology, is committed to reducing capital costs. They strongly believe in universal access to capital, crucial in today's capital-based economy, with over $1 trillion in unsecured credit card revolving balances.

The journey of credit cards since the '60s, culminating in balances exceeding $1 trillion in 50 years, reveals the existing challenges. Unsecured credit, despite its efficiency in quick underwriting and access to capital in 1-3 days, comes at a high cost (15-25% APR). Conversely, secured capital involves high origination costs and prolonged processes (weeks in underwriting, months for access) but offers cheaper rates (<10% APR).

Innovating the credit landscape, our client introduced a new asset-backed credit card, securing equity in homes, cars, and other assets. This innovation allows them to offer remarkably low APRs to consumers. Their flagship product boasts the world's lowest APR credit card, aiming to change the credit paradigm.
