One Mortgage System (OMS) has extended its application programming interface (API) integration with Tandem Bank to cover the lender’s second charge business and incorporate Tandem’s new broker origination system, Connect.
December 2020 saw OMS complete an initial API integration with Oplo. Oplo merged with Tandem Bank in 2022 and this partnership has been extended to incorporate all second charge activity across the business.
This enhanced integration will see OMS users benefit from direct access to Tandem Connect and its range of second charge mortgage solutions via a full two-way integration, providing the ability to generate fast lending decisions without the need to rekey any data.
Neal Jannels (pictured), OMS managing director, said: “Tandem continues to strengthen its presence within the specialist residential lending market and in supporting the intermediary community to deliver successful customer outcomes and help clients navigate the ongoing cost of living challenges.
“Tandem’s ethos around helping more people in the UK to make greener choices that benefit both their pocket, and the planet is a highly commendable one and I’m sure that this API integration will further enhance this growing reputation amongst our ever-growing user base.”
Nigel Brookes, head of second charge sales and distribution – mortgage division, added: “We have been on a journey to substantially enhance our loan origination system capabilities by creating Tandem Connect. This has been further enhanced by integrating with OMS where the experience has been excellent, thanks to seamless collaboration with Neal and the team.
“The integration with OMS and access to Tandem Connect will enable brokers to process applications at pace and scale, bringing significant time and cost savings, delivering more value to our brokers and their clients.”
