Lender Portal
Guide for lender partners — onboarding, webhook subscriptions, submission management, and notification preferences.
Overview
The LendWorks Lender Portal enables lending partners to receive and respond to broker submissions. Lenders can configure webhook subscriptions, notification preferences, and response workflows.
Onboarding Flow

Notification Preferences
Configure how you receive notifications for each event type:
| Channel | Description |
|---|---|
| Sent to your registered email address | |
| SMS | Text message notifications |
| In-App | Browser push notifications |
| Webhook | HTTP POST to your configured endpoint |
Multiple channels can be enabled simultaneously for each event type.
Response Workflows
When a submission is received, lenders can:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Approve | Accept the application with terms (amount, rate, term) |
| Decline | Reject with a reason code |
| Counter | Propose modified terms |
| Request Info | Ask the broker for additional documentation |
All responses are delivered back to the broker in real-time via the LendWorks platform and webhook notifications.
