Air Group, the later life services platform, has announced the launch of the Just API link on its Air Sourcing platform.
Air Group is the first launch partner to integrate the new link which will allow advisers to seamlessly and directly progress ‘Just For You’ Lifetime Mortgage applications through the Just Adviser Portal.
The new integration means that client data captured through the sourcing and KFI journey will be automatically transferred when advisers click through, eliminating the need to rekey any previously inputted data. It also provides a safer solution to sending applications via email or post.
The API link through to the Just Adviser Portal has been developed to make the application process easier and more efficient for advisers by providing a seamless connection to the portal. The aim is to reduce processing time for online applications by two days.
To access the new link, Air Sourcing members will need to check their account is linked to a Just Adviser portal account, or register for a new one.
Stuart Wilson (pictured), chief executive officer at Air Group, said: “At Air Group, we are constantly looking for ways to make the application process quicker and easier for advisers.
“This latest integration between Just and Air Sourcing will help to significantly reduce application processing time by removing the need to rekey data and provide a smoother journey for advisers and their clients.
“This update is part of our ongoing commitment to developing a new digital journey for lifetime mortgages that enables advisers to work the way they want. We are dedicated to delivering the best tools, support and technology available to our advisers.”
Jonathan McCaffrey, specialist account director at Just, added: “With a market that is constantly changing and evolving, we know that time is of the essence so we are delighted to be working with Air Sourcing to provide the first API link to our Just Adviser Portal.
