"We built it the right way - in a way where we can create a long-lasting, beloved consumer brand and help tens of millions of people improve their lives. We want to take it as far as it's going to go." In this month's episode, I sit down with Renaud Laplanche, Upgrade, Inc. Founder and Former LendingClub CEO. Upgrade is a fintech platform providing affordable and responsible credit, mobile banking, and payments products to over 6 million customers in the US and Canada. Upgrade has issued over $35Bn in credit since its founding in 2017 - $8Bn just in the past year. Renaud has been in fintech since before fintech was a real term and has all of the lessons and wisdom to prove it. In a challenging era for consumer fintech, Upgrade found a way to break the mold and continue growing, expanding products, making acquisitions, and more. Renaud and I discuss - The acquisition of his first company by Oracle and the idea for LendingClub - A deep dive on Upgrade's funding model and how it translates into savings for their customers (they work with over 250 loan buyers) - How founders should manage their first credit facilities and debt raises - Acquiring Flex Pay (formerly Uplift) and why lessons learned from prior acquisitions made this one work (especially in culture and integration) - Why second-time founders can make the best founders - How Upgrade is utilizing AI to transform the business - and much more Tune in at the link in the comments. #fintech #banking #payments #software
