Expanding lending into new markets: The old way vs. The new way

For lenders, expanding into a new country has always been both exciting and daunting. The growth potential is huge, but so are the operational and regulatory challenges.
Traditionally, entering a new market meant:
- Endless integration projects with local vendors
- Complex compliance work with ever-changing regulations
- Painful, slow onboarding of external partners
This “old way” of expansion often consumed months (sometimes years) and significant budgets before a single loan was issued. It slowed down growth and increased operational risk – putting lenders at a disadvantage in competitive markets.
The new way: Expansion made simple
At inGain, we believe expanding your lending business into new markets shouldn’t be this difficult. That’s why we’ve built a ready-made loan management platform with everything lenders need to launch fast, stay compliant, and scale efficiently.
Across 10+ countries, inGain is already trusted by lenders who’ve proven that market expansion can be simpler, faster, and far less costly.
With inGain, the essentials are already in place:
- Proven workflows – tested with real lenders, designed to reduce manual work and errors
- Pre-built integrations – to KYC/AML providers, credit bureaus, payments, collections, and communication systems
- Built-in local compliance – processes and reporting aligned with market-specific regulations
Instead of building from scratch, lenders expand with momentum.
Why this matters for lenders
- Speed to market
Every month counts. With pre-built integrations and compliance processes, lenders can launch in weeks, not years. - Lower risk
By using workflows already tested in other markets, lenders avoid costly mistakes and compliance pitfalls. - Cost efficiency
No need to over-invest in custom IT projects or hire large teams just to maintain local compliance – inGain’s system takes care of it. - Scalability
Whether you’re expanding from one market to three, or from three to ten, the same platform scales with you.
A proven track record
inGain is already powering lenders across Poland, Spain, Denmark, Lithuania, Latvia, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Moldova, Cameroon and Jordan. Each expansion builds on an ecosystem of integrations and compliance knowledge we’ve already put in place – meaning every new client benefits from the experience of those before them.
Market expansion without the headaches
Expanding into new markets doesn’t have to mean endless IT builds, vendor negotiations, and regulatory uncertainty.
With inGain, lenders can focus on what matters most: growing their portfolio, serving new customers, and scaling with confidence.
The old way: complicated IT projects, compliance barriers, and painful onboarding.
The new way with inGain: proven workflows, pre-built integrations, and built-in compliance.
That’s how we make expanding lending into new markets simple.
