Ventanex, a REPAY company, is powering STX through its LIFT payment and messaging platform. Using LIFT’s PaymentIQ exception management module, STX automates payment processing and routing between servicers—reducing errors and creating a seamless borrower experience.
While much of the service transfer process is automated, many manual steps remain during the 60-day consumer grace period after a sale. Both sending and receiving loan servicers are responsible to provide physical check processing, manual data entry and analysis, and shipment processing when borrowers mail payments to the wrong name and address. These time-consuming, labor-intensive inefficiencies become automated with STX.

“Today’s low mortgage rates have sparked a boom in mortgage service transfers—so efficiency and accuracy matter more than ever,” says Susan Perlmutter, Chief Revenue Officer, REPAY. “We identified an increased need to streamline efficiencies for mortgage lenders. STX makes transfers easier for servicers—and reduces errors that can slow the process and alienate borrowers.”
“PaymentIQ was built to untangle complex scenarios just like this,” notes Todd Harbison, vice president for Ventanex. “By moving complex payments from manual to digital processing, it gives STX the power to identify service-released items and forward them automatically and electronically to the new servicer.”
Ventanex LIFT platform allows mortgage servicers to leverage a robust suite of borrower engagement and intelligent payment processing tools. By harnessing the most advanced technologies, Ventanex offers convenient payment methods consumers prefer, applies rules across channels, collects appropriate fees and reduces costs—all while ensuring compliance.
