CloseSimple Integrates Payments Solution in Platform
November 6, 2025
CloseSimple launched a new, fully integrated payments functionality within its signature platform. The addition allows homebuyers to securely and easily pay earnest money deposits and cash to close via good funds directly through the CloseSimple portal.
The closing process is highly vulnerable to wire fraud, where bad actors intercept communication to reroute funds. CloseSimple said its new feature directly combats this. By embedding the payment process within the title company's existing branded portal, it eliminates the need for relying on vulnerable emailed wire instructions or antiquated paper checks.
“For the past several years, we’ve been building the CloseSimple portal into the most trusted, highest–engagement experience in the industry, with customers regularly seeing 80–90% of eligible buyers actively interacting with their portal.” said Nate Niemi, CTO and head of product at CloseSimple. “By adding payments directly into that same secure, branded experience, we’re extending what already works. Instead of asking customers to jump to a new tool or trust a risky email, they can make their down payment in a place they know and trust. This is part of our long-term product strategy: eliminate fragmented workflows, reduce the surface area for fraud, and deliver a closing experience that is seamless for consumers and operationally superior for title companies.”
