LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) March 16, 2021
FinTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global FinTech market, today announced that Simplist, the digital mortgage marketplace of the future, has been selected as winner of the “Best Digital Mortgage Company” award in the fifth annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program.
Venture-backed fintech firm Simplist is delivering greater transparency and efficiency to the mortgage industry, combining proprietary technology, bank-level encryption and in-house expertise to help prospective and existing homeowners alike navigate the mortgage procurement process with speed, security and ease.

Currently, Simplist works with almost 30 lending partners, including national brands such as Quicken Loans and loanDepot, as well as regional powerhouses.
“During the ongoing pandemic, we've been able to close mortgage transactions in half the time of most traditional lenders,” said Anthony Sherman, CEO at Simplist. “With that said, our focus on technological ingenuity, efficiency and customer experience predates the pandemic and will remain a priority long after its threat has abated. We are thrilled to receive this recognition from FinTech Breakthrough as it is great to have our hard work acknowledged and validated.”
The FinTech Breakthrough Awards is the premier awards program founded to recognize the FinTech innovators, leaders and visionaries from around the world in a range of categories, including Digital Banking, Personal Finance, Lending, Payments, Investments, RegTech, InsurTech and many more. The 2021 FinTech Breakthrough Award program attracted more than 3,850 nominations from across the globe.
“The traditional process of getting a mortgage can be stress-inducing and many consumers often leave money on the table by only submitting an application with one or two lenders,” said James Johnson, Managing Director, FinTech Breakthrough. “From its inception, Simplist has been laser-focused on reinventing the mortgage journey and they have created a breakthrough mortgage experience that people actually want. We are thrilled to name Simplist as winner of our ‘Best Digital Mortgage Company’ designation for the 2021 FinTech Breakthrough Awards program.”
With Simplist, prospective borrowers submit just one streamlined application, and then the Company searches more than 50,000 options to identify the mortgage deals that best meet the individual’s unique needs. Simplist also serves as a single point of contact throughout the entire mortgage origination process. This means no bait-and-switch tactics or farming out of customers’ information to third parties. For most borrowers, Simplist's mortgage procurement process can be completed entirely online.
