Notifications
Email and SMS alerts should be permission-based
The handoff requires explicit consent for SMS alerts and email preferences. No SMS checkbox should be pre-checked, and all communications need unsubscribe/opt-out paths.
This template represents the preference flow visually; the actual form logic, email verification, Klaviyo/Twilio integrations, and compliance language should be implemented in the signup flow.
Lender discovery
How lender matching should feel
Transparent filters
Users should filter by loan type, amount, credit score, funding speed, and state availability.
Verified profiles
Lender cards should show AI-verified status, product tags, range, rate indicators, and apply/profile CTAs.
Featured disclosure
Paid placements can appear prominently, but the disclosure should be tasteful and visible.
No pressure path
Users can browse resources and compare options before applying or requesting offers.
