Complete rebrand setting new industry standards

What started as Shermin Finance in the 1970s has evolved into something remarkable. When Homeserve acquired us in 2021, backed by Brookfield, it fueled a vision to reshape home improvement finance. The rebrand to Stax in 2024 marked our evolution from a finance broker to a technology platform that defines how modern lending operates.
By 2025, over 220,000 customers had chosen our platform, we had integrated 6 lending partners, and originated more than £750 million in loans. Every line of code, every integration, every user interaction is built on five decades of deep industry knowledge.
