Teylor AG

Online SME lending and lending-tech SaaS

Overview

Teylor provides SME financing in Switzerland and Germany through an online platform that offers direct loans to small and medium-sized enterprises, including those underserved by traditional banks. In addition, it licenses its digital lending technology to banks and other financial institutions via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform, enabling these partners to automate and digitize their own SME lending processes. Revenue comes from interest and fees on its own loans as well as recurring SaaS licensing fees. Compared with competitors, Teylor combines direct lending with a licensed lending technology platform, targeting SMEs and offering a streamlined, digitized lending workflow for bank partners. The company aims to improve access to finance for SMEs and to reduce lending costs and inefficiencies for financial institutions by standardizing and automating the lending process.
