MortgageGym, a digital mortgage robo-advisory firm, has secured £2 million in seed funding ahead of its official launch this summer.
The FCA-authorised service will allow homebuyers to complete their mortgage application online in 15 minutes through a free advice website offering mortgage eligibility matching within 60 seconds, regulated robo-advice and access to live advisors.
Three FinTech investors took part in the funding round: Gaby Salem, China Pacific Capital and Trifecta Capital. Following the success of the funding round, the startup is expected to announce its strategic partnerships within the next three months.
John Ingram, CEO and founder of MortgageGym, said: “We are thrilled to have secured such a significant vote of confidence in MortgageGym’s proposition from well-respected investors.
“MortgageGym is committed to revolutionising the mortgage market through a whole-of-market, digital, free and accurate application process, which is the first of its kind. We will provide mortgage applicants with peace of mind by advising them on mortgages they can realistically attain based on the strict affordability grounds laid out in the FCA’s Mortgage Market Review.”
