The AutoGravity platform is available across the United States. NMAC financing options are currently available on the AutoGravity app in California and will be available nationwide in mid-2018.
“NMAC wants to provide consumers the most seamless automotive financing process possible,” said NMAC President Kevin Cullum. “We use smartphones to manage many aspects of our lives, so it’s only natural for digital to be the next evolution in automotive financing.”
