ISGN’s BridgeLink eCommerce Network is an Electronic Partner Network (EPN) – a powerful transaction delivery and vendor management network for the mortgage industry. BridgeLink connects all parties – mortgage lenders, data sources, bureaus, service providers, GSEs, business partners and external systems – involved in the production and servicing of mortgage loans. Meaning, a system needs to connect only to BridgeLink to communicate with several others at the marketplace.
Integration with BridgeLink is made easy through the use of XML web services and other web methods, such as HTTP POST. The use of standardized XML documents makes integration possible with minimal development efforts. Additionally, the ability to work with standard MISMO schemas as well as client defined interfaces enables BridgeLink to easily support any interface requirements.
BridgeLink supports various transaction modes such as synchronous, asynchronous, pull-out and post-back modes. These various methods allow the user the flexibility to submit the transaction and continue working without needing to constantly check the status of the submission. Additionally, BridgeLink provides a rich web interface for members to monitor their transactions.
Our studies have shown that the average lender saves up to 40 minutes per loan when integrated with BridgeLink. Lenders could easily save thousands of dollars annually in time alone by utilizing BridgeLink services. This is in addition to savings from reduced operational costs such as phone time, fax time, manual reentry of data, paper and printing, and delivery of packages. The mortgage industry is racing toward the goal of a paperless, electronic mortgage process. As one of the driving forces toward paperless transactions, ISGN is helping to ensure that its partners will be among the first across the finish line to reap the benefits.
BridgeLink is not affiliated with any particular service provider and therefore acts as a neutral point of contact between clients and providers. BridgeLink is secure, optionally supports Public/Private key data encryptions for communication, and can accept any number of transactions in its load-balanced environment with an uptime of 99.99%. With a growing list of vendor relationships in most of the mortgage origination, default and servicing areas, BridgeLink provides a robust and flexible e-service platform for both lenders and service providers.
