About Mission Lane:

Founded in December 2018 Mission Lane is a purpose-driven fintech company based in the U.S. with headquarters in Richmond Virginia.

It all started with a realization: nearly fifty percent of the adult population in the U.S. doesnt have access to a clear line of credit. Most traditional credit card companies either overlook or overcharge this group because they have less-than-perfect credit scores or no scores at all. We decided this just wouldnt do.

In partnership with our sponsor banks we offer credit cards under the Mission Lane brand name with better clearer terms and a more refined customer experience than the alternatives available to people working hard to improve their credit.

To date over four million consumers have chosen Mission Lane earning high customer ratings on Credit Karma for its market segment and industry leading Net Promoter scores.

Mission Lane has cumulatively raised over $600 million of equity from leading investors including Invus Opportunities QED Investors LL Funds funds affiliated with Oaktree Capital Management and other leading investors.
