Pagaya Technologies Ltd. , a global AI-driven financial technology company, has entered into a forward flow agreement with Sound Point Capital Management, LP, a leading alternative credit manager with over $45 billion in assets under management. Under the agreement, Sound Point will purchase up to $720 million of point-of-sale (POS) loans originated through Pagaya’s platform. This marks Pagaya’s first forward flow transaction for its POS program and highlights strong institutional demand for its high-quality consumer credit assets.
This forward flow transaction represents a key step in scaling Pagaya’s rapidly growing POS business through efficient, repeatable capital solutions. By partnering with long-term institutional investors like Sound Point, Pagaya continues to build a diversified funding ecosystem that supports expansion across its core product verticals.
“Pagaya has built a differentiated, institutional-grade platform for accessing consumer credit. We’re excited to partner with Pagaya to support the continued growth of its point-of-sale strategy, while offering our investors consistent exposure to short-duration assets with highly attractive risk-adjusted returns and durable income,” said Philip Bartow, Head of Specialty Finance and Fintech Lending & Portfolio Manager at Sound Point.
Pagaya’s predictive AI technology enables responsible expansion of consumer credit by facilitating access to high-quality assets for its network of lending partners. The POS vertical, in particular, has seen strong demand from institutional investors seeking reliable, short-duration credit exposure.
“We are proud to partner with Sound Point on our inaugural point-of-sale forward flow transaction,” said Sanjiv Das, President and Co-founder of Pagaya. “Together, we’re connecting capital with the responsible expansion of consumer credit opportunities - through a product that resonates and is in strong demand by institutional investors. This agreement is an important milestone as we continue to efficiently scale our point-of-sale business.”
Pagaya complements its public ABS program with private capital partnerships to create a robust funding foundation. This approach ensures scalability, resilience, and efficient capital deployment across personal loans, auto loans, and point-of-sale products, positioning the company to meet growing demand in the consumer credit market.
