FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. -

Late last week, RouteOne announced that C&F Finance Co. is now an available e-contracting finance source for dealers utilizing the RouteOne platform.

The move was made in an effort to augment the digital exchange of critical contract documents and data between dealers and finance sources to increase efficiency and reduce contracts in transit.

C&F Finance, headquartered in Richmond, Va., is a leader in indirect auto financing, providing vehicle finance in multiple states throughout the U.S. Officials highlighted C&F benefited from a streamlined technical implementation process due to the e-contracting certification that its loan origination system (LOS), defiSOLUTIONS, had previously undergone with RouteOne.

“We are excited about partnering with RouteOne and offering e-contracting to our dealers,” C&F Finance executive vice president and chief credit officer Shawn Moore said.

“Cutting down funding time and gaining efficiencies will greatly add value to our funding processes,” Moore continued. “We’re certain our best in class service will be further enhanced with this feature.”

RouteOne is one of the industry leaders in e-contracting, booking more than 10 million e-contracts to date. RouteOne has more than 7,200 active e-contracting dealers and more than 50 finance sources in its rapidly growing e-contracting customer base.

“We strive to continually deliver our customers solutions that streamline and solve challenges in the auto finance industry,”, RouteOne chief operating officer Brad Rogers said. “e-contracting is a solution that benefits all parties involved: dealer, finance source and consumer.

“C&F Finance is a welcome addition to our e-contracting platform, and we are pleased to offer their services to our dealer base,” Rogers went on to say.

Dealers interested in e-contracting should contact their RouteOne business development manager at (866) 768-8301 or www.routeone.com/salesteam.
