More Embedded Lending, Less Deals for Brokers? [Video]

I couldn’t even finish posting a video about embedded lending before two more partnerships popped up on my radar.
LendingFront + Priority Commerce are embedding MCAs, term loans, and sales-based financing directly inside the MX Merchant dashboard. No separate application. No external portal. Capital shows up where the merchant already works.
Then today, NewtekOne (NASDAQ: NEWT) and Payroc announced a strategic alliance embedding banking, lending, insurance, and payroll into Payroc’s platform. That’s 190,000+ merchants processing $125 billion in card volume getting access to loans from $5K to $15M with 10–25 year amortization. Inside the same dashboard they already use for payments.
This is the trend we’ve been covering. The platforms aren’t adding lending as a feature. They’re making it the reason merchants don’t leave - stickiness, switching costs.
Embedded lending isn’t coming. It’s here. And it’s moving faster than anyone can keep up with. Including me.
