i-lend is an online Lending marketplace connecting people who need money with people who are willing to lend. The i-lend business model works on a peer-to-peer concept. We let lenders and borrowers agree on terms of the transaction. This means the interest rates are determined by the borrowers and lenders and not i-lend. i-lend only charges a fixed transaction fee. Unlike banks, i-lend does not make any money over the difference, in lending or borrowing rates.
How does it work?
Individuals register themselves on i-lend as borrower or lender. Registration includes providing information such as personal, professional, financial details which i-lend verifies. We also require documents to be submitted to verify the information provided by individuals. In addition to this, i-lend verifies information through other available resources. This is in line with the KYC norms set by RBI and followed across the BFSI sector.
All approved borrowers and lenders listing is then published on the site. Lenders can view borrower loan listing which includes information such as loan purpose, why should lenders make offers to them, personal, professional and financial information that allows lenders to make an informed decision before lending to a borrower.
Borrowers can receive offers from multiple lenders and similarly, lenders can lend to multiple borrowers thereby diversify their risk. Once a borrower loan is 100% funded, the loan is disbursed.
Loan disbursals involve loan agreement between borrower and lender, money transfer from the lender to the borrower for the loan amount and EMI transfer from borrower to the lender.
i-lend's role
- i-lend is a facilitator between the lender and borrower for a loan transaction. i-lend ensures that all borrowers are verified for the information provided i.e. identity, employment, income, contact information as well as creditworthiness.
- i-lend also helps in the loan disbursement and monitoring process upon loan acceptance by a borrower i.e. ensures that agreements are signed between borrowers and lenders, EMI cheques collected from the borrower before loan disbursal and monitor the repayment.
- i-lend also sends regular alerts/notification to both lenders and borrowers on various activities in their account including the status of registration, verification, loan offers received, loan accepted, disbursed, EMI due date alerts, EMI payment updates.
- i-lend does not recommend borrowers to lenders. All loans are made at the discretion of the lender with an understanding of the possible risks associated with such transactions.
