Overview

There are 2 ways to set up Brokerage accounts in Loanapp.

1. Brokerages can be entered one at a time.

2. Brokerages can be entered in bulk using the template provided.

NB: Brokerages MUST be set up before Brokers. This allows you to link the Broker to the Brokerage afterwards.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Options 1 and 2 are covered separately here. If you have questions about the best solution for you, please contact support and we will be happy to help.
