Sesame Network launches partnership with Smartr365

Sesame Network has announced an exclusive partnership with mortgage and protection platform, Smartr365.

The network said the move is part of a wider technology strategy designed to help its member firms improve their customer experience.

Sesame has announced it will fully fund the cost of Smartr365’s platform for its network members. The solution supports advisers with the acquisition, verification, advice, processing, and retention of customers across mortgages, protection, and general insurance, as well as providing analytical tools.

Last month, PMS Mortgage Club, which is part of Sesame Bankhall Group, announced three new partnerships to give its directly authorised members access to an exclusive panel of customer relationship management systems on enhanced commercial terms. Smartr365 will also be part of this panel.

“Partnering with Smartr365 will not only provide our members with a huge range of features and digital capabilities, but also help to streamline the admin process, leaving more opportunities to spend valuable time with customers and offer an improved experience,” Sesame Bankhall Group chief operating officer, Richard Howells.

“Sesame Bankhall Group is getting on the front foot with technology. I am excited about this announcement and others in the pipeline.”

Smartr365 chief commercial officer, Billy Grimley, added: “We believe the future of mortgage tech is a fully connected eco-system that eliminates the friction and stress for brokers, consumers, introducers, networks, and lenders. We’re incredibly proud of the vote of confidence that Sesame partnering with us represents. It’s an exciting journey that we’ve begun, and together we’re going to make mortgages simple.”
