Teslar Software, a provider of lending technology for community financial institutions, today announced that its consumer loan origination system (LOS) is officially live, built to help community banks and credit unions more efficiently scale consumer lending and create more opportunities for deeper, long-term customer relationships.

Community financial institutions have a significant opportunity to grow future commercial relationships through consumer lending, but too many view consumer loans as difficult to scale efficiently. Teslar developed its Consumer LOS to address that challenge, giving lenders a more streamlined way to originate consumer loans without adding unnecessary operational burden.

The launch marks an important expansion of Teslar’s lending capabilities, giving financial institutions technology designed to simplify and modernize the consumer loan origination process. Teslar’s Consumer LOS brings the entire origination process into one experience. By reducing the need to move between systems and manually piece together each step, Teslar helps institutions originate consumer loans faster while maintaining the controls, compliance and internal policies they rely on.

By making consumer lending more efficient, Teslar aims to help financial institutions look beyond the economics of an individual consumer loan and toward the lifetime value of the relationship. A consumer borrower today could become a small business owner or commercial borrower tomorrow, giving institutions an opportunity to establish that relationship earlier and grow alongside their customers.

The solution was developed and refined alongside beta customers, whose real-world experience and feedback helped shape the platform ahead of its broader launch.

“Although we are still early in implementation, Teslar’s Consumer LOS has exceeded our expectations in time savings and reducing the number of employees needed to complete a consumer loan,” said Ragan Hayward, Chief Credit Officer at FNB Oxford Bank. “As a community bank, we are committed to our customers and our relationships. We strongly believe providing consumer loans through a streamlined LOS gives us a competitive advantage and the operational efficiency to grow our consumer base and strengthen those relationships.”

“Bringing our consumer LOS live is another step toward removing the operational hurdles that make consumer lending unnecessarily difficult for community financial institutions,” said Joe Ehrhardt, CEO of Teslar Software. “Our beta customers played an important role in getting us here. Their feedback helped us build and refine a solution grounded in how lenders actually work, and we’re excited to make it available to more institutions.”

With the consumer LOS now live, Teslar continues to expand its platform across the lending lifecycle, helping financial institutions improve efficiency, strengthen their lending operations and create better experiences for their customers.
