Company

Company overview

OppFi Inc.’s OppLoans platform helps employed U.S. consumers with bank accounts borrow when their credit scores may prevent them from getting traditional bank loans. Its loans are unsecured personal installment loans: borrowers need no collateral and repay over time. OppFi attracts applicants, assesses their ability to repay, and handles servicing and collections; partner banks provide the initial capital and originate the loans.

The banks retain some of the loans’ economic interests and sell participation rights to OppFi. These rights give OppFi a share of the loans’ economics, and borrowers’ interest payments supply most of its revenue—not fees for providing technology to banks. OppFi partly finances these purchases with borrowing secured by the loans or participation rights. It also earns smaller servicing and referral fees.

The business relies entirely on originations by FinWise Bank, First Electronic Bank and Capital Community Bank, while strategic marketing partners bring in most new loans. Its earnings depend on borrower repayments, credit-model accuracy and continued funding. The model also depends on partner banks being legally recognized as the lenders and being able to apply their home-state interest rates elsewhere; state lending restrictions and challenges to that status can limit where and on what terms the platform operates.

OppFi depends on underserved borrowers repaying and bank partners continuing to make loans, including Capital Community Bank and First Electronic Bank, which together originated about 69% of its 2025 platform loans.

  • Oportun Financial Corporation and OppFi both provide unsecured personal credit to borrowers traditional lenders often turn away, so demand and repayment performance matter to both. Oportun’s unsecured personal loans generate most of its revenue and profit, making that business’s repayment trends worth watching for clues to stress among OppFi’s borrowers.

  • OppFi relies on FinWise Bancorp Common’s FinWise Bank to fund and originate loans: the bank accounted for 31.3% of platform net originations in 2025 and pays OppFi for marketing, credit-assessment technology and servicing. Any reduction in FinWise’s lending through OppFi could cut OppFi’s loan volume and revenue.

  • Upstart Holdings, Inc. competes with OppFi to help lending partners assess personal-loan applicants using machine learning and originate loans. Upstart mainly collects fees from lending partners and institutional investors, while OppFi relies much more on interest from loans it retains, so Upstart’s fee revenue is a read on lending-service demand rather than a direct match for OppFi’s earnings.

  • Pagaya Technologies Ltd. competes with OppFi to help lenders assess credit with AI and serve additional personal-loan applicants, earning fees from lenders and institutional investors. Watch its personal-loan business for that overlap: Pagaya also serves auto loans and financing for purchases at checkout, so its wider business is not a pure comparison with OppFi.

  • Consumer Portfolio Services faces the same financial stress among U.S. borrowers with weak credit that drives losses on OppFi’s unsecured loans, but it finances cars by buying and servicing dealers’ loan contracts and collecting borrowers’ payments. Repayment performance on those car loans offers another view of these borrowers’ ability to keep up with debt payments.
