We're hiring! See our jobs board for latest roles. Koyo was founded in 2018, on the principle that people should be treated fairly when it comes to credit. Most other lenders make decisions based on data from credit scoring agencies which can be months out-of-date. Our goal is to disrupt this archaic way of lending, by offering competitively priced credit through the innovative use of technology.
Koyo is the UKs first Open Banking powered lender. Open Banking is the secure way to give lenders or financial providers like us, access to transactional banking data. Our innovative approach enables us to offer competitively priced credit based on borrowers spending habits, rather than what credit scoring agencies say about them. A win-win for all.
