Argyle wins 2025 Game Changer award for redefining how lenders verify income and employment

PRESS RELEASE

Recognition from PROGRESS in Lending celebrates Argyle’s impact on lender efficiency, data accuracy and the borrower experience

NEW YORK CITY, July 9, 2025Argyle, a service provider automating income, employment and asset verifications for some of the largest lenders in the United States, has been honored with PROGRESS in Lending’s inaugural Game Changer award. The recognition celebrates technology providers whose products solve real industry challenges and improve the mortgage lending process.

PROGRESS in Lending has been highlighting breakthrough achievements in housing finance technology since 2011. New this year, the association’s first annual Game Changer award spotlights 17 of the most innovative solutions that are changing the mortgage process for the better.

Argyle was recognized for replacing the mortgage industry’s long-standing reliance on manual, outdated income and employment verification methods with a real-time, consumer-permissioned experience. Unlike legacy solutions that depend on static databases and manual paperwork, Argyle gives lenders direct, digital access to payroll and employer systems with borrower consent—eliminating delays, reducing costs and enhancing transparency. The platform integrates directly into lenders’ existing workflows, from point-of-sale and loan origination systems to automated underwriting systems.

Argyle recently expanded its platform to include verification of assets powered by Mastercard’s open banking technology, broadening its support for lenders with a single, consumer-permissioned platform for income, employment and asset verification.

“This award affirms Argyle’s commitment to transforming the mortgage lending process,” said Shmulik Fishman, CEO at Argyle. “We’ve eliminated outdated verification methods that create delays and costs and replaced them with an efficient, embedded experience that works seamlessly within the tools lenders already use.”

Lenders that leverage Argyle’s flexible verification platform reduce verification costs by up to 80%, reduce loan processing timelines by as much as a week and boost application pull-through. The platform delivers complete, refreshable data that supports rep and warrant relief, helping lenders minimize defects, enhance salability and reduce secondary market risk. Borrowers, meanwhile, benefit from a faster, easier loan experience that puts them in control of their own financial data—no uploading documents, no repeated requests.
