April Mortgages using Ohpen platform

Published on

Ohpen has announced that its real-time, ‘cloud-native’ mortgage platform is powering April Mortgages’ proposition for the UK market.

Ohpen says it is supporting in all aspects of the mortgage technology stack, from broker portal and origination through to servicing and credit management.

Dirk Bekkers, CEO of April Mortgages, said: “April Mortgages is an innovative lender and needs technology and processes that can support and deliver our mortgage proposition in the UK. A key part of this is to provide five to 15-year fixed rates that put money back in the pocket of borrowers.

“Borrowers can overpay or move home without incurring fees and the rate reduces as they pay off the loan. Brokers can benefit from real-time digital case-tracking.

“Ohpen are able to deliver systems that provide all of that and we are delighted to have them on board as a strategic partner.”

Ohpen last year agreed deals to support Foundation Home Loans and the Dudley Building Society. The company also recently partnered for global opportunities with Cognizant.

Jerry Mulle, UK managing director of Ohpen, added: “We are delighted to be such an important part of April’s business, helping them go live with a really new proposition for the UK market. Innovation requires systems that can adapt and evolve to meet customer and business needs quickly and our SaaS solution is proving it is the right platform for UK mortgage businesses that want to digitalise what they are doing in a robust, scalable manner.

“We are particularly proud of the broker focused solutions that we have created for April and look forward to continuing to work in partnership with them to drive further innovation.”
