For those struggling to make ends meet this holiday season, Zirtue is here to help.

As previously reported by AfroTech, the world’s leading relationship-based lending app has always aimed to drive financial inclusion, and today that mission remains the same. With the launch of their Alternative Payment Solution for businesses, companies will be able to utilize the platform as a payment option for customers allowing them to pay bills directly through the platform.

With a mission to drive financial inclusion, one relationship at a time, our vision at Zirtue is to prove that friends and family are the largest banks in the world,” said Dennis Cail, CEO and Co-founder of Zirtue, in an official email-exclusive with AfroTech. “Ultimately, we aim to be the modern-day solution for people to access needed funds through relationship-based loans, avoiding payment defaults and predatory lenders, while keeping their personal and creditor relationships intact. We believe this hand-up approach in lieu of a hand-out is the true essence of financial equity and inclusion.”

Zirtue has always simplified loans between friends, family, and trusted relationships by taking informal promises and transforming them into structured agreements while automating the repayment process.
