Even Financial Launches Programmatic Acquisition Tools for Online Lenders

SAN FRANCISCO, April 11, 2016 – ­Even Financial, the supply side platform for online lending, today announced Even Programmatic Acquisition – the first dedicated marketing tools that allow online lenders to identify borrowers who are in-market for a loan and initiate multi-channel campaigns with tailored messaging to these audiences.

“As other pieces of the lending ecosystem have become more enabled and real-time, the process for customer identification and acquisition has the opportunity to become equally sophisticated,” said CEO Ian Rosen. “Through Even’s partner network, data tools and lender relationships, Even builds unique data about how to identify and engage with borrowers for each lender’s specific model. We now want to make those tools available to lenders directly.”

Even Programmatic Acquisition allows lenders to leverage Even’s proprietary data and its network of publishers and affiliates to build a list of borrowers who match their lending criteria. Lenders can then create campaigns to reach these borrowers using trigger-based direct mail, Facebook advertising, and sponsored listings on Even’s network of publishers and affiliates.

“These are powerful tools built to take advantage of our industry-specific data set; nowhere else can online lenders find marketing tools that enable them to reach exactly the right customers this quickly,” said Phillip Rosen, CTO and President.
