Bridge Marketplace (“Bridge”) is a ground-up initiative aimed to democratize lending. Our goal is to provide a platform to give your business easy access to capital sourced from banks, which is often the most efficient form of long-term financing for growth. Bridge uses technology to digitize and optimize the loan search and application process while providing your business with access to some of the most competitive terms on the market from these participating banks.
The core values behind everything we do
01
Create liquidity and gain access to capital
We built this digital marketplace to open more doors for more businesses as they search for financial products and services.
02
Modernize how banks and businesses meet
It’s time to move the golf course to the internet. (We still like golf, but we think there’s a better, 21st-century way to connect borrowers with banks and bankers.)
03
Use technology for a more effective user experience
Using Bridge, you only need to enter your business’s information once to gain access to many banks at once. Completing a single Request for Proposal (“RFP”) will answer the majority of the questions that each individual banker would ask about your business.
04
Connect local & regional businesses with local & regional banks
We want to help you find in-market lenders who understand your business and your geography, as these lenders have the products and services you need to grow your business.
