OneFamily Advice launched in May aimed at over-55s, offering financial advice for homeowners wishing to release equity from their home with a lifetime mortgage.
It is delivered through a combination of online (client portal), phone and video conferencing services.
Matthew Ellis, head of OneFamily Advice, said: “We selected now:advise because we wanted to create a bespoke customer journey and by working with Focus we were able to develop a proposition unique to us that suited our customers’ needs based on its out-of-the-box solution.
“Of particular attraction was the customer portal capability to enable document sharing and secure messaging.
“The solution could be used for advising on other product areas should we decide to expand the scope of our service in future.”
