Account Portal adds feature to handle non-auction purchases and financing
CARMEL, IN (March 19, 2018) – To streamline and speed up funding for eligible dealers purchasing vehicles through non-auction channels, NextGear Capital is announcing Rapid Pay—a feature within Account Portal, NextGear Capital’s account management platform.
For eligible dealers that want to floor plan non-auction inventory, such as dealer-to-dealer purchases or trade-ins, Rapid Pay expedites the process by accelerating funding, simplifying title management and giving dealers full visibility throughout the process – all within Account Portal.
With Rapid Pay, non-auction purchases are given priority for reviewing and processing funding requests. This means dealers receive their funding faster and can view the status of funding requests in real-time. Each non-auction unit floored through Rapid Pay is eligible for a pre-paid shipping waybill, allowing dealers to ship titles directly to NextGear Capital at no additional cost. Rapid Pay truly makes the funding process simpler and allows vehicle titles to quickly get where they need to go.
“Dealers shouldn’t be limited by a cumbersome process to fund non-auction purchases with their line of credit,” said Sarah Lutey, NextGear Capital Director of Product Strategy. “With Rapid Pay, we give dealers enhanced control of their floor plan and a simplified process to finance the inventory they need to grow their businesses.”
With Rapid Pay, dealers are getting improved functionality, visibility and control over funding of their non-auction purchases. Now equipped with the latest technology for inventory finance, Rapid Pay offers the best real-time information, so that dealers can make the most informed financing decisions to acquire needed inventory.
