LendingTree, established in 1996 and headquartered in Charlotte, NC, is a prominent U.S. online lending marketplace that connects business owners with a wide network of financing partners. It simplifies borrowing by offering a single secure form that triggers matching with multiple lenders who then provide personalized offers, such as rates, terms, and required documentation. Although LendingTree itself does not fund loans, its platform allows borrowers to compare options, including term loans, SBA loans, lines of credit, equipment financing, merchant cash advances, invoice factoring, and more. Users retain full choice and are under no obligation to accept any offers.
