The Prodigy Finance Story
Prodigy Finance is founded on the philosophy that funding shouldn’t be a barrier to education.
It’s a new approach that’s led to us starting a lot of conversations and winning awards, including "Best Overall Peer-to-Peer Lending Platform" from the FinTech Breakthrough Awards.
