Lendbuzz provides auto loans specifically designed for international students and professionals in the United States who may struggle to secure financing through traditional lenders. The company uses advanced data analytics and machine learning to evaluate the creditworthiness of borrowers, focusing on a wider range of financial and personal data rather than just credit scores. This allows Lendbuzz to cater to a niche market that is often overlooked by conventional financial institutions. The loan application process is simple and user-friendly, enabling borrowers to apply online, verify their information quickly, and sign documents digitally. Lendbuzz earns revenue by charging interest on loans, with rates tailored to each borrower's risk profile, and may also receive fees from car dealerships for facilitating loans. The goal of Lendbuzz is to make auto financing more accessible for individuals with limited credit history in the U.S.
