SharperLending Solutions plans to assist you in providing as many valuable products and services as possible in your portfolio to deliver to your clients.

While the FICO® Mortgage Direct License Program announcement is still fresh in everyone’s minds (and could shake out in many different ways), our goal is to provide options for you to drive your revenues, deliver premium services, and generate cost savings to your clients. In other words, you can stay competitive during this time of change.

While more information is planned about the FICO Mortgage Direct License Program in the coming weeks and months, know that SharperLending will be working with FICO directly to deliver this new opportunity to all our CRAs.

What We Know

• FICO will be contracting directly with ‘tri-merge resellers,’ aka Credit Reporting Agencies like you, to deliver FICO scores directly to lenders.
• SharperLending will be expanding our existing relationship with FICO to facilitate score delivery. This will involve a new technology integration.
• All the FICO Classic scores will be able to be delivered on your credit report, direct from FICO.
• Your regular bureau connection with scores (both FICO and VantageScore) will continue to run as it does now.
• FICO is offering two different pricing options in the Direct License Program. Use the link below for complete information on that.
• Review and complete the form at the following URL to get started. FICO will be contracting directly with you to offer this out.

We realize this is very high-level information. As we learn more and work through this new opportunity, our team will keep you informed. Contact Matt Brannon with questions at Matt.Brannon@SharperLending.com.
