Frequently asked questions

Ask another question

You earn a share of the commission LendNav receives on every referral that funds, across business loans, real estate financing, and merchant processing. You also earn recurring revenue as long as they stay a LendNav customer. Your exact commission rates are listed in the partner agreement you review before signing.

Commissions are paid by ACH within 30 days after LendNav receives its payment from the lender or processor. You'll get an email confirmation with each payment.

A business owner you introduce who submits a signed application and their recent business bank statements (three months, or four months for businesses in New York and California). Each referral is protected for 21 days from submission.

Every time a client you referred comes back for more funding, or keeps processing payments with us, you earn again, for as long as they remain a customer. To stay eligible, your partnership needs to be in good standing and you need to have submitted at least one new referral in the past 12 months.

Commissions go to the first partner who submits a client. We can't pay a commission on businesses that are already in our system or in an active conversation with our team.

No. Becoming a LendNav partner is free, and there are no quotas or minimums.

Just your contact and business information and an e-signed partner agreement, which takes about 5 minutes online. No documents are needed to sign up. Once we countersign, we'll email you a link to complete your W-9 online, and then to upload your driver's license and a voided check or bank letter so we can pay your commissions.

Commissions are calculated as a percentage of the compensation LendNav LLC actually receives and are subject to the terms of the LendNav Referral Partner Agreement, including eligibility, duplicate-referral, clawback, and compliance provisions. Partner applications are subject to review and approval, and the agreement takes effect only upon countersignature by LendNav. Partners are independent contractors, not employees or agents of LendNav. Referring a client does not guarantee approval or funding. LendNav LLC is a lending marketplace and does not itself extend credit.
