MA Money, one of Australia’s fastest-growing non-bank mortgage lenders, has officially launched on NextGen’s ApplyOnline platform from July 1 – a move set to streamline submissions and eliminate key broker pain points.
National sales manager Tim Lemon (pictured left) said the decision follows “consistent broker feedback” and reflects the lender’s commitment to improving speed, ease, and confidence in the loan process.
“ApplyOnline has been one of the most requested tools from our broker network, and we’ve listened and delivered,” Lemon said.
ApplyOnline is Australia’s most widely used loan application platform. For brokers, it offers a unified digital hub with key features including:
Smart checklists and secure document capture
Digital signatures to reduce turnaround times
End-to-end paperless process
Seamless submission and loan management
“This is more than a platform integration,” Lemon said. “It’s about giving brokers what they need to work faster, with less friction and much more confidence. MA Money’s reputation has been built on service and support. ApplyOnline helps us extend that advantage even further.”
The integration also builds on NextGen’s ongoing enhancements to ApplyOnline. Since acquiring Frollo, NextGen has embedded open banking capabilities into the platform – now live across aggregators Connective, Finsure, and Mortgage Choice, as well as lenders including CBA and Westpac Group.
The launch comes as MA Money continues its strong growth trajectory, having:
completed a $1 billion RMBS transaction in May
Mike Ponsonby (pictured right), head of lender partnerships at NextGen., welcomed the move.
“We're thrilled to welcome MA Money to the ApplyOnline platform,” he said. “Their decision to introduce ApplyOnline during such a significant growth phase shows real confidence in digital transformation.
“We’re excited to support their continued product expansion through our platform, and we expect these future integrations will set a new benchmark for broker experience in the non-bank space.”
MA Money will expand its ApplyOnline offering later in 2025 to include:
commercial loans
SMSF commercial loans
Bridging loans
These products will join a service model designed for broker efficiency, including:
A 48-hour SLA to conditional approval
Direct access to credit assessors
A national team of knowledgeable BDMs
“Brokers can now lodge MA Money deals through ApplyOnline, making their day-to-day processes faster, simpler, and more aligned with the way they already work,” Lemon said.
