eMoneyPool is an online community where members pool funds to borrow and save together. The concept is based on a centuries-old financial practice where your reputation within a community is your credit. Millions of people in the United States, and billions worldwide rely on money pools because they don’t have access to traditional credit, so they instead turn to each other and leverage the capital resources of a community. eMoneyPool has formalized this practice and created a high-tech solution that is efficient and familiar to our target market.

We have developed a SaaS platform that is structured as a marketplace where members can pick and choose money pools of all different types in terms of payment frequency, amount, start date, and participants. The platform is completely automated and a self-regulating community where members choose their group members based on their previous payment reputation, similar to eBay.

LendStreet combines credit counseling and distressed debt buying in a social lending platform to help distressed debtors proactively refinance existing debt into a low interest loan. Borrowers on our site do not receive cash; instead, the money invested by investors goes directly to paying the existing creditors at an agreed-upon discount. The discount is shared with the debtor in the form of lower debt, a reduced interest rate, and monetary incentives for financial literacy.

LendStreet provides a socially-conscious lending platform that helps distressed debtors get a low interest loan from investors to settle existing debt with their creditors. LendStreet includes a comprehensive financial literacy program with monetary incentives to help debtors develop lasting financial management skills. Through our partners, we negotiate a discounted settlement with the creditors and structure the loan to ensure payments are within the debtor’s budget. The loan amount is more than the discounted settlement amount but less than the borrower originally owed. Investors buy the new loan at a discount. The structure allows us to provide relief for debtors, improve recovery for creditors, and create a high yield asset for investors.
