NewDay USA Wins “Digital Mortgage Innovation Award” in 2026 FinTech Breakthrough Awards Program
Prestigious Annual Awards Program Celebrates a Decade of Recognizing the World’s Most Innovative Financial Technology Companies
LOS ANGELES, April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NewDay USA has been named the winner of the “Digital Mortgage Innovation Award” in the 10th annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards. The recognition, presented by FinTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization, highlights NewDay USA’s innovation in mortgage lending for the veteran community.
NewDay USA is redefining how the mortgage industry supports America’s veterans, service members and their families. With NewDay Home, qualifying borrowers can secure a fully underwritten, credit- and income-approved mortgage with no money down at competitive rates. Veterans and service members who are unable or prefer not to erase their personal savings for closing costs can use NewDay Advantage for a combined loan structure that finances closing expenses over five years, with interest fully refunded if repaid within one year.
“A huge barrier to homeownership for veterans is saving enough to cover closing costs. Many have to drain their savings, which may be needed for emergencies and other priorities. As a result, many decide to stick to renting, even as rents rise,” said Steve Johansson, Managing Director, FinTech Breakthrough. “NewDay Home Advantage addresses a meaningful wealth-building gap, helping veterans keep their savings for furniture, moving expenses, or just peace of mind. This product makes homebuying easier and more accessible. We extend our sincere congratulations to NewDay USA on their well-deserved ‘Digital Mortgage Innovation Award’.”
The FinTech Breakthrough Awards is the premier awards program founded to recognize the FinTech innovators, leaders and visionaries from around the world in a wide range of categories, including Digital Banking, Personal Finance, Cryptocurrencies, Lending, Payments, Investments, RegTech, InsurTech and more. The 2026 program represents a milestone year, reflecting a decade of spotlighting the companies driving measurable innovation across the global financial technology ecosystem.
“Upfront closing costs are a real friction point for veterans and active-duty service members looking to buy a home. With this new homebuying solution, we're changing the way they can achieve homeownership, giving them greater flexibility and fewer financial hurdles at closing,” said Sean Reynolds, Executive Vice President of NewDay Home at NewDay USA. “We're grateful to FinTech Breakthrough for this recognition. Everything we do at NewDay USA is about supporting military families every step of the way toward financial security and homeownership.”
