Why Mast?

At Mast, we understand the challenges lenders face in today’s fast-paced market. Our loan origination platform is designed to help you overcome these challenges by providing the speed, flexibility, and support you need to succeed.

Engineering & Product expertise

Our Product and Management teams have experience in Digital Banking, Consumer Finance, Mortgage Lending, Commercial Banking, and Capital Markets. Our engineers have previously worked for industry-leading fintechs and cloud computing companies. They have a wide range of skills that allow us to build slick, stable and secure technology.

Invested in your growth

We work with clients as partners. Our revenue model is directly tied to your performance, meaning we share both the upside and the downside with you. We also work collaboratively with our clients and maintain an open dialogue about your requirements. You win, we win.

Fast implementation timeline

We build and iterate quickly, using extensive automated testing to prevent defects, regularly pushing to production, and offering a multi-tenant SaaS product instead of deploying 'on-prem'.

Customer experience

Our spotlight on customer feedback at every level of the organisations we work with, ensures we’re as efficient as possible in delivering a great product

Self-Awareness

We are all humans, nobody knows everything – and that should never be a limiting factor. It's okay to make mistakes, as long as you ask for help and want to learn.

Reliability

We invest heavily in infrastructure, design and great service. Trust and reputation is a pillar of our identity.

Honesty & Transparency

We provide a safe and open environment. We rely on truthful and transparent communication to ensure that the best ideas win.

Pursuit of Excellence

Everything we do, we do well or we don’t do at all, even the things that we don’t see at the surface. Excellence is in the process and in the details, the rest will take care of itself.
