Button makes financial
independence possible
About Us
We are a diverse team of problem-solvers who are committed to providing great financial products and customer experience. We bring together expertise in financial services, technology, engineering, operations, and law. We are designing elegant tech-enabled solutions to endemic financial problems.
Our goal is to deliver not just financial products but financial independence. By combining brilliant financial solutions with financial education we can propel Americans forward to achieve their goals and realize their dreams.
Americans have a debt problem. The problem is even worse for non-prime borrowers.
Button Finance helps individuals and families achieve financial independence. A borrower’s home is their largest asset. Today, there aren’t enough options to monetize that Home Equity. The lack of options is worse for non-prime borrowers, who have the greatest need.
US homeowners have nearly $16 Tn in Home Equity – the highest ever. Our loans give homeowners more disposable income through better access to capital and lower monthly payments.
