Technology integration enables GOLDPoint Systems’ clients and their customers to reduce operating expenses by expanding the payment options they offer borrowers

SANTA CLARA, Calif., September 19, 2024 – PayNearMe, the fintech company bringing progress to payments, today announced a strategic partnership with GOLDPoint Systems, a leading provider of loan management software for the nation’s largest installment and specialty lenders. The partnership integrates PayNearMe’s modern, flexible payments platform with GOLDPoint Systems’ loan management software.

“This strategic partnership with GOLDPoint Systems marks a significant milestone in our expansion into the personal lending market,” said Michael Kaplan, Chief Revenue Officer, PayNearMe. “By integrating our best-in-class technologies, we’re helping the nation’s largest installment and specialty lenders bring progress to their payments. The collaboration not only enhances efficiency for lenders but also enables them to offer borrowers more convenient ways to repay their loans.”

This partnership provides GOLDPoint Systems additional options for their lending customers to expand payment options for their borrowers. With PayNearMe, GOLDPoint Systems’ customers have another avenue to accept traditional forms of payments such as cards and ACH, as well as alternative payments including Venmo, PayPal, Cash App Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and digitized cash payments, all through a single integration and contract.
