With Näktergal, it seems like they’ve found the answer.
Reloan’s goal is clear – they needed a core system provider that understands the market to flawlessly power their innovative credit offering.

People have struggled with debt collection, expensive loans, and a history of payment remarks. We want to help them find a way back to a functioning private economy. To do this, we review our customers’ current situation, pay off the debts where we can offer better terms, and make a plan for the future.”
