Earnnest, the leading digital earnest money platform in the U.S., is proud to announce an expanded partnership with Lone Wolf Technologies, the North American leader in residential real estate software. Building on their successful integration in zipForm since 2019, Earnnest will now be integrated across Lone Wolf’s full suite of transaction management tools, including TransactionDesk and Transact, later this year.

This expanded partnership brings secure, digital earnest money payments directly into the core workflows used by hundreds of thousands of real estate professionals. Agents using TransactionDesk and Transact will soon be able to request and receive earnest money electronically: streamlining transactions, improving security, and delivering a seamless experience for buyers.

“Real estate professionals deserve tools they can trust - especially when it comes to handling money,” said Chris Basinger, Senior Vice President of Growth at Earnnest. “This expanded partnership is a big step forward - not just for Earnnest and Lone Wolf, but for the entire real estate industry. We’re making digital earnest money a standard part of the transaction experience and continuing to eliminate the pain points that have held real estate back for too long.”

Since its original integration in zipForm in 2019, Earnnest has helped tens of thousands of agents eliminate the hassle of paper checks and wire fraud concerns. With these new integrations, Lone Wolf’s customers will now have a unified solution for managing earnest money deposits across all of their transaction platforms.

“We’re excited to continue making transaction management as smooth as possible for real estate professionals” said Aaron Kardell, General Manager of Innovation and Strategic Partnerships at Lone Wolf. “Our extended partnership with Earnnest allows us to simplify managing earnest money in a digital environment while streamlining the transaction and removing some of the long-felt pain points.”

The new integrations are expected to launch later this year, further reinforcing Lone Wolf and Earnnest’s shared commitment to modernizing the real estate experience from offer to close.
