In this episode of Guts, Grit & FinTech, we explore the future of private lending with Steve Rabago and Ted Tekippe, Co-Founders of ZimpleMoney—a fintech platform making private loan management smarter, simpler, and fully automated. Hosted by Vasyl Soloshchuk, this conversation dives into how ZimpleMoney is changing the way individuals and institutions handle loans, leases, and custom repayment agreements.

Making Private Lending Frictionless

Whether it’s managing family loans, institutional lending, or buy-now-pay-later structures, the platform delivers structured automation where traditional solutions fall short.

Tailored Tools for Modern Loan Management

The platform offers custom features to support a range of financial contracts—from interest-only family loans to structured lease payments—turning complicated spreadsheets and disjointed tracking systems into a centralized, compliant solution. It’s built for flexibility but operates with the reliability of an enterprise platform.
