Overview

Glide supports extensive options for deep linking into specific loan flows and categories.

Note the URL path is shown below. Add this to the end of your root URL (e.g. FI-name.com) to create the full URL.

General Links

Onboarding Page and Recommended Offers

URL Path: /loans/apply

Example URL: FI-name.com/loans/apply

Use case: Share with applicants who would like to see what they are pre-qualified for, without a specific loan type in mind. They will be taken to the onboarding page where they will see pre-qualified recommended offers as well as the option to apply for any loan.

All Loans

URL Path: /loans/apply?page=all_loans

Example URL: FI-name.com/loans/apply?page=all_loans

Use case: Share with applicants who would like to apply for a loan but have not selected a loan type yet. After logging in, users will see a page where they can select a loan type to apply for.

Deep Links

Deep links are a way to direct a user to a specific category (e.g. Personal Loan -> Medical Expense) or sub-category (e.g. Vehicle Loan -> Boat -> Sailboat).

Commonly, deep links are used on lender websites where they list the various loan types they offer, each with its own deep link. Users who enter the application via deep link will not be asked for the category/sub-category of loan they are looking to apply for.

How to find your deep links

The specific deep links will differ depending on your categories/sub-categories and their names. To find your deep links:

  1. Open the Glide Dashboard and navigate to the Configure option in the sidebar

  2. Select Loan Types under Digital Loan Application

  3. Select the Loan Type you are interested in

  4. In the Categories table, you will see each category along with the deep link associated with it

  5. If you have sub-categories configured, you can

    1. Expand the row

    2. See the deep links for the sub-categories

Loan Category Statuses: Active vs. Active via Link vs. Hidden

Each loan category (and sub-category) has a status that controls how — and whether — members can reach it. There are three possible statuses:

  • Active: The category is fully publicly available. It appears in the standard member-facing loan application menu, and any member can browse to it and apply without needing a special link.

  • Active via Link: The category is live and accepting applications, but it is not listed in the standard member-facing menu. Members can only reach it if they are sent a direct deep link to that specific loan type. This is useful for targeted promotions, pilot programs, or niche products you do not want all members to see when browsing the application.

  • Hidden: The category is not accessible to members at all, regardless of whether they have a link.

Important: If every category within a loan type is set to Active via Link (with none set to Active), that loan type will not appear as a selectable option in the standard member application flow at all — members must use a deep link to reach it.
