Athena Home Loans launched in 2019 to help Aussie borrowers save money and pay down their home loans faster. Athena's digital mortgage platform radically simplifies the application process passing on the savings to customers at better rates. Customers switching to Athena are saving ~ $60,000 over the life of their loans.
Athena has built Australia's first cloud-native home loan platform, covering the full value chain to acquire, originate, service and fund residential mortgages. Fintechs targeting mortgages are typically only focusing on a narrow layer of the value chain (e.g. originations), then handing back to legacy bank systems. By tackling the full stack, Athena aims to cut the cost of running a mortgage business by 70% vs. legacy players, providing a sustainable advantage.
Athena has been recognised amongst multiple consumer lending and industry awards including Canstar Outstanding Value and Innovation Excellence awards, RateCity and Mozo awards, and Fintech Lender and Fintech CEO of the year.
