Lendistry Launches OrigenLink Lending-as-a-Service Platform for Banks
Lendistry on Oct 29, 2026, announced OrigenLink, a technology-enabled managed lending-as-a-service platform aimed at expanding small-business access to capital. CEO Everett K. Sands and CTO Robert Green presented a live demonstration to banking leaders at the American Banker Small Business Banking Conference on Oct 28, 2026, in Los Angeles.
OrigenLink lets financial institutions integrate small-business lending into their existing offerings rather than referring customers to outside lenders. The platform targets banks that want to serve small-business borrowers without building proprietary lending infrastructure. Lendistry, a Los Angeles-based lender, positions OrigenLink as a way to meet rising demand for responsible commercial lending.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
- OrigenLink expands the embedded-finance model beyond payments and accounts into small-business lending, a historically underserved BaaS vertical
- Banks adopting lending-as-a-service platforms like OrigenLink can retain SME customers and generate fee income without building proprietary lending stacks
