Oportun and Sezzle announced a partnership that will provide consumers more choice when financing higher value purchases at many of Sezzle's 44,000 online merchant partners. Through the partnership, consumers choosing to purchase higher value items including electronics and other home goods, will have the option at checkout to finance their purchase through Oportun. Using machine learning and billions of proprietary data points, Oportun is able to score 100% of its loan applicants.

Historically, about half of Oportun borrowers had no credit score when they took out their first Oportun loan, and since 2006, the company has helped nearly 1 million American consumers to start building a credit score, while saving them more than $2 billion in interest and fees. Oportun noted that with the addition of Sezzle, their Lending-as-a-Service business now includes three strategic partners, with Sezzle being the first all-digital partner.
