Baton Rouge, La.—AppOne has formed a strategic alliance with First Advantage CREDCO, a provider of specialty credit reports to the mortgage, consumer finance and auto industries.

AppOne will provide First Advantage CREDCO’s products though the AppOne loan portal and its dealer management system, DMSOne. This will provide independent auto dealers with instant access to credit reports from all three of the national credit-reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

The alliance eliminates the need for independent dealers to use multiple systems to communicate with credit reporting agencies and makes the application process more efficient. Dealers can use the system to verify the buyer’s ID through a variety of products, helping to eliminate consumer fraud.
