“Dealstruck got into the alternative lending industry because we saw a simple problem. Small businesses weren’t able to get quick, fair and transparent financing opportunities, so we set out to fix it, but needed a technology partner to make our vision a reality,” said Ethan Senturia, CEO of Dealstruck. “Cloud Lending helped us provide the solution needed to empower entrepreneurs to get their business off the ground quickly. As both our companies continue to grow and expand in the alternative financing market, we’re excited to see what features they continue to bring to their outstanding suite of applications.”
