Unlock Lending Data: Securely Integrate Borrower & EMI Portfolios

Through authorized protocol analysis and OpenBanking principles, we enable you to extract and synchronize your Freebird (Loan Book & Interest Manager) data directly into your enterprise ERP, CRM, or accounting software. Turn manual ledger keeping into an automated data pipeline.

Borrower Profile Synchronization — Automatically pull complete borrower details, including KYC status, contact information, and historical credit risk assessments, allowing real-time synchronization with centralized CRM systems like Salesforce or Zoho.
EMI Schedule & Mandate Tracking — Access detailed repayment schedules, mandate payment markings, and loan settlement statuses programmatically. This ensures your accounting team always has the latest accrued interest figures.
Automated Collection Webhooks — Bridge Freebird's auto-reminders and field staff collection events with your own backend. Capture payment settlements instantly without manually exporting Excel or PDF reports.
Team & Multi-Business Management — Consolidate data across multiple lending businesses and field staff accounts. Aggregate ledger balances and outstanding arrears into a unified corporate dashboard for executive oversight.

Data Available for Integration (OpenData Inventory)

We implement highly structured OpenData pipelines that map Freebird's internal ledger formats into standardized JSON APIs. Below is the inventory of extractable endpoints:

Data Type Source / Module Granularity Typical Business Use
Borrower Profiles Customer Directory Per User (Name, Phone, ID) Central CRM syncing, automated credit scoring, and KYC compliance.
Loan Schedules & EMIs Active Loans Dashboard Per Installment (Principal, Interest, Due Date) Cash flow forecasting, arrears management, and automated accounting.
Payment Transactions Repayment Ledger Real-time (Amount, Date, Mandate Status) Reconciliation with bank statements and automated ledger updates.
Staff / Team Activity Field Staff Tracking Per Session / Action Auditing field collections, calculating commissions, and fraud prevention.
Device Lock Status EMI Management Per Device (Locked/Unlocked) Risk control and enforcing repayment policies automatically.

Typical Integration Scenarios

1. Automated ERP & Accounting Sync

Context: Lenders often struggle to manually type daily collections from Freebird into Tally or QuickBooks, leading to human errors and delayed financial reporting.

Integration: We establish a secure API bridge that automatically extracts closed transactions and loan settlements at the end of each business day. This OpenFinance pipeline maps Freebird payment IDs directly to your ERP's ledger entries.

2. Centralized Risk Control Dashboard

Context: NBFCs with multiple branches need a consolidated view of defaulters and outstanding balances across different Freebird team accounts.

Integration: By analyzing the app's protocol, we pull real-time arrears lists, calculate portfolio risk metrics, and feed this data into a centralized Business Intelligence (BI) dashboard like Tableau or PowerBI for management overview.

3. Omnichannel Collection Triggers

Context: While Freebird offers SMS/WhatsApp reminders, enterprise lenders often need to trigger advanced IVR (Interactive Voice Response) calls or third-party collection agency workflows when an account is severely past due.

Integration: Using a custom webhook implementation, our API detects when a borrower misses an EMI by 7 days, automatically pushing their profile and outstanding balance to an external collection CRM.

4. Automated Device Locking Integration

Context: Mobile phone retailers offering EMI plans use Freebird's device locking feature but want it tied directly to their central billing system.

Integration: We expose an endpoint that allows the central billing software to issue an "unlock" command automatically the moment a payment clears the bank, relaying the instruction through the Freebird protocol seamlessly.

Compliance, Privacy & Security

Financial data extraction requires strict adherence to regulatory standards. Our integration tools are designed to respect the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) in India, ensuring that borrower information is processed securely. We implement OAuth/Token-based authorization, encrypt data in transit via TLS 1.3, and never store your Freebird credentials. All data pipelines follow a strict zero-retention policy on our middleware servers, acting purely as a secure conduit between the app and your corporate infrastructure.

Architecture & Data Flow

  • Node 1: Target App Environment. The original Freebird mobile/web client instances holding the source ledger data.
  • Node 2: Authorized Protocol Bridge. Our custom middleware that authenticates using your provided credentials, simulating legitimate app traffic.
  • Node 3: Data Normalization Engine. Converts proprietary binary or unstructured responses into standardized JSON REST APIs.
  • Node 4: Client Destination. Your private server, ERP, or BI tool that ingests the clean OpenData feed via secure HTTPS endpoints.

Market Positioning & User Profile

Freebird (Loan Book & Interest Manager) operates primarily in the South Asian and emerging markets, serving as a critical infrastructure layer for Individual Money Lenders, Microfinance Institutions (MFIs), and Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs). Its ecosystem is closely related to digital ledger apps like Khatabook and OkCredit, but it specializes deeply in EMI calculations, device locking, and mandate settlements. Our API services bridge the gap for these mid-to-large scale lenders who outgrow manual PDF exports and require enterprise-grade automation across their Android and Web deployments.
