The Problem

Service merchants lose customers at the financing step.

01

Fragmented lender integrations

Each lender requires a separate integration, contract, and operational workflow — creating brittle point-to-point connections that break under scale.

02

No audit trail

When a consumer is declined, there is no record of which lenders were queried, in what order, at what latency, or why routing stopped — making compliance and optimization impossible.

03

Lost approvals

Without intelligent sequencing, merchants query lenders in the wrong order — burning applications against the wrong risk appetite and missing approvals that were available downstream.

Architecture

Routing is deterministic. Every decision is logged.

A single application enters the Cascade layer. The routing engine sequences lenders by priority, exits on the first approval, and produces a complete audit record — regardless of outcome.

Example — audit log for one application

Lender Status Result Latency
#1
Routed
Approval returned — routing complete
420 ms
#2
Declined
Lender returned a decline
880 ms
#3
Skipped
Not queried — earlier approval ended routing
#4
Skipped
Not queried — earlier approval ended routing

Every routed application produces a deterministic log: priority sequence, lender response, latency, decision, disbursement path. Routing logic is reviewable.

Who It's For

Built for service businesses where financing decides revenue.

Consumer-facing merchants with financing at the point of sale — where approval rates and time-to-decision directly affect close rates and revenue.

Cascade is in private pilot with a limited number of merchants per market. Verticals are considered on a case-by-case basis, based on regulatory and operational fit.
