Company Description

Tembo is making the dream of ownership possible for a new generation of home buyers. We are a disruptive, award winning savings and mortgage platform powered by a proprietary technology platform - with the result of enabling buyers to buy their home years ahead of the alternative.


We recently acquired a savings company to help us capture customers earlier in their home buying journey, nurture them through saving for a deposit and ultimately to match them with the best mortgage product to get them onto the ladder more quickly. Our savings business is growing very rapidly and we've recently launched a Cash ISA to complement our existing Lifetime ISA products. We have huge plans for new products and innovation in the future.
