AUSTIN – SMART Payment Plan has transmitted more than $5 billion of consumer bill payments. SMART Payment Plan helps Americans match lower and easier automated loan and bill payments to their paydays. SMART provides point-of-sale technology that allows automotive dealers to offer lower, more affordable payments to their customers.
Our focus on making things simple and serving customers and dealers with exceptional service has delivered a win-win for car buyers and automotive dealers.
“Our lower, easier, and more affordable loan and bill payments that match American’s paydays are more popular than ever,” said CEO David Engelman. SMART’s lower and easier payments have been offered by over 3,300 automotive dealers nationwide to help car buyers more easily afford vehicles and ancillary products. “Our focus on making things simple and serving customers and dealers with exceptional service has delivered a win-win for car buyers and automotive dealers,” said Engelman.
SMART attributes it success to a large and expanding Agent base. “We currently have more than 40 agents and several Agencies that distribute SMART nationwide. Everybody wins when customers can afford more vehicles and ancillary products,” said Engelman.
Helping F&I customers understand complementary offerings is likely to lead to more sales, based on the success of a high-performing practitioner of the philosophy.
