The Challenge.
Unplanned & Urgent Repairs
Auto repairs can't wait. When a transmission fails or brakes give out, customers need their car fixed now — but often can't pay in full.
Rising Repair Costs
Average repair costs have climbed to $1,500–$8,000+. Without financing, customers defer critical maintenance or abandon the repair entirely.
Credit-Challenged Customers
The customers who most need repair financing often have lower credit scores. Without a multi-lender waterfall, they're turned away.
Dealer Service Competition
Dealership service departments offer captive financing as standard. Independent shops need the same tools to keep customers from leaving.
