About Mission Lane:
Founded in December 2018, Mission Lane is based in the U.S., with headquarters in Richmond, Virginia.
It all started with a realization: nearly fifty percent of the adult population in the U.S. doesn’t have access to a clear line of credit. And by “clear” we mean credit without crazy fees that only increase debt. Most traditional credit card companies either overlook or overcharge this group because they have less-than-prime credit scores or no score at all. We decided this just wouldn’t do.
We leverage advanced technology, data analytics, and machine learning to provide a dignified customer experience. In the last five years, we’ve served over three million customers while becoming profitable and consistently earning industry-leading customer Net Promoter Scores and strong financial returns on capital.
We understand that everyone doesn’t have the same opportunities. We also know that everyone joins us at different stages of their financial journeys. We get it - life happens. That’s why Mission Lane is hard at work paving a better way forward.
