Orrtax-Vertical Lend Strike Alliance

Melville, N.Y. and Bellevue, Wash. (Nov. 14, 2002) -- Tax software and electronic filing concern Orrtax has teamed with online lender Vertical Lend in a venture that will enable tax professionals to place residential, commercial and small-business loans online, directly from their IntelliTax launchpad.

IntelliTax users can access, complete and submit a simplified loan application to Vertical Lend from the product’s Outlook-style launch pad. Upon receipt of the loan application, a Vertical Lend representative will work with the tax professional to facilitate the process.

"Since the tax preparer will be compensated by Vertical Lend, this alliance provides an opportunity for IntelliTax users to create an additional revenue stream for themselves while offering an extra level of convenience and value-added service to their own client base," said Stacey Kapustka, TRE Orrtax Director of Marketing.
