Erik Skinner — Modernizing Mortgage Payments

Forces in Fintech

Whether we’re buying something online or in-store, the number of payment options we now have at our disposal is enormous. With credit cards and debit cards in both our physical and digital wallets, we no longer need to rely solely on cash or check, and we can even complete transactions with our smartphones or watches.

No matter the purchase, we now have a plethora of ways to pay. But why can’t we have the same choice when it comes to our mortgage payments too?

In this episode of Forces in Fintech, we explore this very question and take a look at the solutions available for borrowers to pay off their mortgages using newer and more convenient means. We speak with REPAY’s Mortgage Vertical Executive, Erik Skinner, to understand the innovations transforming the mortgage payment space.
