LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM: 21 April 2026

Sandstone Technology, a global leader in digital banking, loan and savings origination solutions, today announced that Market Harborough Building Society, has extended its partnership with Sandstone Technology for a further six years.

This renewal marks over a decade of continuous collaboration, reaffirming their shared commitment to digital transformation, innovation and customer-centric banking, and underscores the deep trust and strategic alignment that has developed between the two organisations.

Since partnering in 2015, Sandstone Technology has worked alongside MHBS to modernise its digital banking capabilities, streamline customer onboarding and reduce manual processing enabling customers to bank anytime, anywhere, while accelerating application timelines. Together, these initiatives have materially strengthened the society's digital proposition, improved operational efficiency, and positioned it to respond swiftly to regulatory change and evolving member expectations. The Society has a rating of 4.8/5 on Trustpilot and was awarded the Best Building Society Savings Provider by the MoneyComms in 2024.

"Over the past ten years, we have not simply provided a platform, we have become a genuine partner invested in the building society’s success. This extended partnership is a powerful testament to the trust we have earned and the outcomes we have consistently delivered together.

We are proud of what we have achieved with Market Harborough Building Society and we are equally excited about what lies ahead. This renewal signals our shared ambition to continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible in digital banking, delivering real value for the society’s members for many years to come,” said Jennifer Harris, Chief Customer Officer, Sandstone Technology.

Annie Cossar, Chief Customer Officer, Market Harborough Building Society, shared “Over the course of our partnership with Sandstone Technology, they have demonstrated a genuine understanding of our business, our members and the challenges we face. They are not just a technology vendor, they are a strategic partner that has walked alongside us through significant transformation. 

The work we have done together on our digital platform has fundamentally changed how we serve members, making the experience faster, simpler and more accessible. We have great confidence in Sandstone’s commitment to our growth. We look forward to continuing to build something exceptional together.”

Under the extended agreement, Sandstone Technology and Market Harborough Building Society will continue to deepen their collaboration with a focus on next-generation digital experiences including business accounts applications for the society, continued platform modernisation and supporting MHBS's strategic objectives around growth, efficiency and member retention.
