Finastra integrates Optimal Blue live pricing into Fusion MortgagebotPOS
London, UK, and New York, US, June 11, 2018 – Finastra has integrated Optimal Blue into its Fusion MortgagebotPOS solution, enabling banks and credit unions to provide mortgage applicants with Optimal Blue’s live pricing searches, via any point-of-sale channel. The addition of Optimal Blue to MortgagebotPOS furthers Finastra’s relationship with the enterprise secondary marketing automation vendor, which already integrates with the Fusion MortgagebotLOS loan origination platform.
“Finastra is committed to developing an ecosystem of innovation, and working with companies like Optimal Blue helps us deliver the full value of our solutions to our clients,” said Mike Dionne, Senior Vice President, Community Markets, Finastra. “By expanding our relationship with Optimal Blue, we are giving mortgage lenders that use our point-of-sale platform seamless access to market-leading enterprise lending services, including product and pricing.”
As a leading provider of secondary marketing automation and services to the mortgage industry, Optimal Blue’s solutions enable thousands of lenders to easily implement, manage, and execute sophisticated product and pricing strategies focused on increasing competitiveness and creating new efficiencies. By directly embedding Optimal Blue’s broad portfolio of REST APIs into its mortgage origination solutions, Finastra is able to fully leverage the capabilities of Optimal Blue, providing joint clients real-time access to compliant product and pricing content throughout the Fusion Mortgagebot solutions.
“We are thrilled to mark a new chapter of collaboration with Finastra by extending the use of our APIs into the Fusion Mortgagebot platform,” explained Bob Brandt, Vice President of Marketing & Alliances at Optimal Blue. “This highly-anticipated integration vastly improves the user experience and uniquely positions our joint clients to create substantial new efficiencies throughout the entire loan life cycle.”
Fusion MortgagebotPOS is a web-based solution that allows lenders to receive accurate, qualified applications through every point-of-sale channel: consumer-direct via the internet, in the branch or call center, or through professional loan officers. As a cloud-based solution, borrowers have the option of completing an application in one channel or moving seamlessly between channels, depending on their needs and preferences. This web‐based technology allows users to explore rates, fees and products; complete an application in minutes; get instant approvals; and receive immediate online disclosures – anywhere they have internet access.
