FormFree was recognized for its innovative new solution, Residual Income Knowledge Index (RIKI).<\/p>\n<p>FormFree is transforming how consumers and their lenders understand their ability to pay with its RIKI. When paired with traditional credit scoring models, RIKI offers lenders a more complete understanding of consumers\u2019 creditworthiness and creates homeownership opportunities for those with little to no credit history.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ADVANCE Awards is the only program recognizing established companies that develop technology to improve our lives or create greater efficiencies through better fintech,\u201d said Scott Mills, president of William Mills Agency, and co-chair of the awards program. \u201cWe received incredible responses from applicants for this year, and the judges had a daunting task reviewing the nominations to select our 2024 finalists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>RIKI is one component of FormFree\u2019s Passport app, which provides a holistic picture of a consumer\u2019s ability to pay (ATP\u00ae&#xfe0f;). With Passport\u2019s instant, direct-source, consumer-permissioned data insights, financial institutions can identify qualified borrowers from the first sign of intent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s an honor to be recognized as one of the top fintech firms in Georgia,&#8221; said FormFree Founder and CEO Brent Chandler. \u201cSince the beginning, FormFree has strived to be a beacon of innovation and our flagship products, Passport and RIKI are certainly leading the way in lending technology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the ADVANCE Awards and see the full list of award finalists and winners, please visit www.fintechsouth.com.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About FormFree\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>FormFree empowers consumers to understand their ability to pay and share it with lenders like never before.
