Twenty7tec has announced the integration of Skipton Building Society into the APPLY module, making it the first and only platform provider to roll out an application submission integration with the society.

The collaboration promises to streamline the research and application process for intermediaries by removing the need to re-key data and navigate multiple systems.

Through the integration, users will be able to submit both Decision in Principles and Full Mortgage Applications to Skipton Building Society via APPLY, and will also have complete visibility of case updates and decisioning through the module.

The integration has been piloted by Connells Group, Primis and Mortgage Advice Bureau (MAB), before now being rolled out to the wider market.

Nathan Reilly, director of lender relationships at Twenty7tec, said: “Our data proves that a fully integrated journey across Decision in Principle and Full Mortgage Application offers advisers the efficiency and time saving they’ve been looking for.

“With this in mind, we’re delighted to have worked with the team at Skipton Building Society to deliver an integration that will make a real difference to the way advisers submit mortgage business.”

Paul Fenn, head of business development at Skipton Building Society, added: “As we continue to invest in our technology and streamline our processes, it is really exciting to have been working with Twenty7tec and the ‘Apply’ Module.

“Making things easier for brokers is important to us at Skipton and this integration will be a real time saving for brokers and will remove the need for the duplication of data during the DIP and Full Mortgage Application.”

Chris Wainwright, product owner of mortgages at Skipton Building Society, concluded: “We are thrilled to have worked with Twenty7tec to deliver an end-to-end DIP and Full Mortgage Application journey for our broker partners. We really believe this will support them by creating efficiencies; making it easier to submit business and providing great journeys for our customers.

“Creating Broker ease and driving customer satisfaction is at the heart of our strategy and this is a real positive step forward in removing duplication of effort, speeding up the customer journey and sharing data efficiently through the mortgage value chain.”
