One application reaches 18+ lenders and 25+ lending programs, and the pre-approval stays with the store the shopper chose.<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Charlottesville, VA, USA &#8211; November 13, 2026 &#8211;<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mylendpro.com\/\">LendPro<\/a>, the financing intelligence platform for retailers, today launched its ChatGPT plugin, now live in ChatGPT. Shoppers can ask ChatGPT where to finance a purchase, find a participating retailer nearby, and apply once to be considered by multiple lenders. When a shopper is pre-approved, LendPro notifies the store so its team can help complete the sale.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">LendPro is not a lender. It is the SaaS orchestration layer retailers use to route a single application across multiple lenders.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&#8220;Shoppers are already asking AI where to buy. The question for retailers is what happens next,&#8221; said Matthew Dishman, President and CEO of LendPro. &#8220;Our plugin connects that intent to a store and a pre-approval in one step. The shopper learns their buying power, and the store knows about it before they walk in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>How shoppers use the LendPro ChatGPT plugin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1. In ChatGPT, select LendPro from the available plugins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2. Include @LendPro and describe the purchase and location, for example:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"caps\">&#8220;@LendPro Where can I finance a sofa in Houston, Texas?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>&#8220;@LendPro Find a tire shop offering payment plans near ZIP code 77356.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>&#8220;@LendPro What financing programs does this store offer?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3. Choose a participating store and say &#8220;I want to apply&#8221; to receive a secure application link.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4. Complete the application on LendPro&#8217;s secure site. Personal information is entered there, not in the chat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5. Depending on the store&#8217;s lender lineup and each provider&#8217;s decision, one application can return multiple offers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>What participating retailers get<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>\n<p>Shoppers from AI discovery. Reach customers using ChatGPT to find a store that offers financing for a specific purchase and location.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>One application, multiple lenders. Every application is routed across the providers configured for that store, so fewer shoppers leave without an option.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Pre-approval alerts. The store is notified when a shopper is pre-approved, so associates can follow up while intent is high.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>One merchant portal. Application activity, financing status, and results in one place.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Every credit tier. Prime, Near Prime, and Subprime programs, including lease-to-own, based on the store&#8217;s lineup<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">To learn more, visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mylendpro.com\/\">https:\/\/www.mylendpro.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Inquiries can be sent to ceo@mylendpro.com or call (434) 202-0137.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>About LendPro<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">LendPro is the financing intelligence platform for retailers, founded in 2012 and based in Charlottesville, Virginia.
