Bring Your Own Processor

Keep your processor. Lose the overhead. Unlock processing fee disclosure.

Your processor stays on your files.

Processing moves off your P&L.

You start disclosing the fee on the LE.

The Math Isn't Working

Your Processor Is Great. Your P&L Doesn't Care.

You're paying salary, benefits, taxes, and software licenses for a processor who handles maybe 15-20 files a month.

When volume dips, you're still writing that check. When volume spikes, one processor can't keep up anyway.

You can't disclose the processing fee on the LE because they're your employee — so the cost is invisible to borrowers and eats your margin.

You've thought about outsourcing, but you don't want to lose the person who already knows your files and your borrowers.

BYOP solves all of this. Your processor moves under Bright's umbrella. They keep working your files. You stop carrying the overhead. And you can now legally disclose the processing fee on the Loan Estimate.

How It Works

Same Processor. Zero Overhead. Three Steps.

1

Your Processor Joins Bright

Your current processor transitions to Bright Processing. We handle onboarding, contracts, payroll, insurance, and compliance. They keep working your files — nothing changes in how you operate day-to-day.

Seamless Transition
2

Processing Moves Off Your Books

No more salary, benefits, payroll taxes, or software licenses on your P&L. Your processor is now a Bright team member. You pay a flat per-file fee instead of carrying fixed overhead.

Fixed → Variable Cost
3

Disclose the Fee, Keep Your Margin

Because your processor is now with an independent processing company, you can legally disclose the processing fee on the Loan Estimate. The cost shifts from your margin to the transaction. Your borrower sees it. Your bottom line improves.

For You, The Broker

The Numbers Change Immediately

Processing Off Your P&L

Stop carrying fixed salary and benefits. Pay per file instead. When volume is low, your costs are low. When volume is high, the cost per file stays flat.

Disclose on the LE

Legally shift the processing cost from your margin to the Loan Estimate. Your borrower sees a transparent fee. Your profit per file goes up.

Keep Your Workflow

Same processor, same communication, same file handling. The only thing that changes is who signs their paycheck and where the overhead lives.

Set Your Own Pricing

You control what the processing fee is. You control what your processor earns. Bright charges a flat platform fee — the rest is between you and your processor.
