FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. -

Auto Search Technologies’ transition to becoming VehiclesNETWORK continued on Wednesday as 700 Credit gained certified provider status from VehiclesNETWORK for its consumer pre-qualification (QuickQualify) and full credit application (QuickApplication) platforms.

Now dealers who use VehiclesNETWORK to build and manage their websites can elect to add these two solutions to increase the value of sales and finance leads.

QuickQualify can provide dealerships with a consumer’s current FICO score and full prequalification credit report to help in aligning consumers for the right auto loan without posting a hard credit inquiry. The simple data form supported by an informative video do not require the consumer’s Social Security Number or date of birth, which can help to engage more consumers and drive more valuable leads from a dealership’s website.

QuickApplication can replace traditional credit applications simplifying the process and allows for population of the application into AppOne, CUDL and RouteOne.

“We are very pleased that VehiclesNETWORK has certified our credit applications for their customers’ websites,” 700Credit managing director Ken Hill said.

“Empowering dealerships to capture more of their web site traffic and insight into their customers while enabling consumers to understand what type of vehicles and payments they qualify for without impacting their credit is a win-win for the dealership and the consumer,” Hill continued.
