ONTARIO, Calif. – CU Direct announced two new features last week that will allow credit union members to apply for a loan or sell their car using an new iPhone app.
The two new features, “Apply for a Loan” and “Sell Your Ride,” have been added to the company’s AutoSMART iPhone App, which CUDL introduced to credit unions and their members last July.
The new Apply for a Loan feature provides credit unions with a mobile solution that helps retain member loan opportunities. Members can apply for an auto loan through their credit union “on the fly” from their iPhone, as well as through other popular Apple products, including the iPad, and iPod Touch.
The feature is an extension of CUDL’s SMART Approval solution, which enables credit unions to provide their members with a simple and convenient online pre-approval application and loan decision.
The new Sell Your Ride element of the AutoSMART App allows members to post their personal vehicles, including automobiles, motorcycles, boats and personal watercraft, and RVs for sale to their credit union’s AutoSMART website via their iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. With the Sell Your Ride feature, credit union members are able to upload and post their vehicle’s information, data and pictures to their credit union’s AutoSMART site’s “Private Party” vehicles section, using the site’s inventory program.
