Avail Finance provides the blue-collared workforce with a neo banking platform that aims to include every credit-worthy individual under the financial umbrella. With the formalized lending segment having overlooked extending credit to daily wage workers, domestic help, delivery workers, cooks and household staff, which was much needed, the team behind Avail Finance wanted to harness the power of technology to enable quick dispersal of small personal loans with low-interest rates and processing fees to the country’s low-income groups to help them when they need help the most. Using a hassle-free, quick and simplistic loan application structure, Avail Finance aims to identify credit-worthy individuals in the Indian population who are currently underserved by formalized lending institutions such as banks and NBFCs and provide them with credit line and instant cash products using an online app that enables access to credit in just a few moments.

“Traditionally, formalized lending institutions ignore underserved segments of the population. There is no credit card penetration among blue-collar workers, and they have a limited credit history. Considering these limitations, a platform like Scienaptic, which gives us the flexibility to integrate alternative data and change strategies rapidly, was a must,” said Tushar Mehndiratta, Co-Founder at Avail Finance. “With Scienaptic’s decision engine, we are empowering low-income workers with faster access to credit. The AI engine has already helped us determine the financial picture of over 500,000 applicants dynamically.”

Avail is seeing exponential growth in its business, and we are happy to help them scale,” said Joydip Gupta, Head of APAC Business.
