New Marqeta research: How consumers are engaging with Lending 3.0

Last week during Money 20/20, we released our new report “Seeking out the alternatives: how consumers are engaging with the lending 3.0 landscape”, which details European consumer attitudes to and experiences of lending. We surveyed 2,000 European consumers, conducted in partnership with Propeller Insights, to learn about consumer preferences when it comes to lending.

Our report found that consumers are frustrated with the lending industry with 70% of consumers surveyed saying that the experience of getting a loan is a decade behind online banking. They also noted that they want more clarity from lenders, with 75% of respondents saying they “switch off” when prospective lenders use industry jargon and 80% believing that lenders try to obscure the final cost of a loan.

Interview with Anastasia Tenca, COO Noda Pay

Noda was launched in a private beta mode in Summer 2021. Company’s core area is Open Banking solutions for online services. Noda focuses on direct communication with online merchants, and instantly searches for new ways to apply Open Banking technologies in different fields to help e-commerce businesses grow and evolve. During the first year, we grew the team from 5 to 20 people, contracted with the first few merchants and polished the technologies and processes. As we see the increasing demand and specter of possible Open Banking applicability, we keep growing the muscles on product and sales expertise, with a high attention to both merchants and end-users online experience. For the moment, we quite fully covered our UK and European connections. So we are currently active in two areas:

Expanding the geography of connections – this year we plan to connect to the banks in Canada, Australia, and ASEAN countries. Next year, as soon as local banks are ready – USA, Latin America, Africa

Optimization of “Sign in via Bank” functionality – we are actively exploring technological and legal opportunities to increase the value of the service for merchants by providing them with the functions of benchmarking potential customers based on financial information. This will allow us to offer the most relevant products and services in the future, and optimize the Customer Experience for end-users.
