About MPOWER Financing

MPOWER Financing is a fintech startup that specializes in providing loans and financing options to international students studying in the U.S. or Canada. The company's primary market is international students who often face difficulties in securing loans due to lack of credit history or cosigners. MPOWER's business model is unique as it does not require a cosigner or collateral for its loans. Instead, it assesses a student's future potential to determine loan eligibility.
