Words: Mason Contractors

Loot, a fully automated platform that offers quick, flexible credit solutions for businesses, enters the Masonry Alliance Program at the Cornerstone Tier. Loot will receive incomparable access and exposure to the $33 billion industry through the MCAA’s relationships with well over 25,000 mason contracting companies.

“Loot is tremendously excited to announce our partnership with the MCAA, a collaboration that underscores our commitment to providing fast and easy working capital to the businesses that are so vital to our economy. We look forward to delivering our unique customer centric and rewards based lending approach to all MCAA members,” said John Cain, CEO and Co-Founder of Loot.

Availability for verbal commitments in the Masonry Alliance Program is now open to any interested company. The MCAA has recently launched a dedicated website, masonryalliances.com, with full details on the program. Starting in 2024, the MAP replaces Strategic and Corporate Partnerships as the only way for active suppliers to remain involved in the MCAA.

"Loot engaged in conversations with us and pretty quickly we realized there are a lot of synergies between our organizations. It's incredibly exciting for our eleventh Cornerstone commitment to be an innovative technology company whose focus is on helping contractors grow their business. We look forward to a long and collaborative relationship," said Dan Kamys, MCAA Director of Content. 

The Masonry Alliance Program’s four tiers each have a cap on the number of companies who can participate. A total cap of 70 companies will not be expanded, and we will plan on creating a waiting list. For more information, please visit masonryalliances.com or call Todd Fredrick at 800.536.2225.
