This Stanford grad is taking on pawn shops with a new credit card startup

In recent years, there’s been no shortage of startups offering credit lines to the underbanked. Most talk about their mission to help people establish credit, which is noble, but they’re also extending credit because — let’s face it — lending out money is lucrative. Now, a startup founded by Stanford grad James Savoldelli has found a new wedge into the same industry, and it’s through pawn shops. Called Pesto, it’s a savvy idea. For those in dire financial straits, pawn shops are a bank of last resort. An individual doesn’t have to have a credit line or a bank account or even income. A customer with a government ID can simply leave behind something of value — jewelry, electronics — and receive a secured loan in return for a percentage of the value of that item, plus interest. If he or she pays off the loan, that person can retrieve the item; otherwise, it’s forfeited and sold.
