DealerCenter and Westlake Capital Finance Partner for Buy Here Pay Here Success

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (August 2023):

Los Angeles, CA. DealerCenter, the renowned automotive dealer management system, partners with Westlake Capital Finance (WCF), a commercial lending entity under Westlake Technology Holdings, to provide Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) dealers a line of credit to finance their customers directly.

BHPH allows customers to purchase a vehicle from the dealership and make loan payments directly to the dealership without the need of utilizing a finance company or Bank. This is an ideal option for those consumers who may not qualify for the traditional auto loan to free up customer’s cash and allow for financial flexibility.

DealerCenter, with access to an expansive portfolio of 3,000+ active BHPH dealers and counting, and an active balance of $750 million, dealers can explore a range of financing options to better support their customers’ automotive purchases and revolutionize the BHPH landscape. WCF offers lines of credit allowing BHPH dealers to save up to 50% on monthly credit line payments and gain immediate cash from their portfolio. This results in an improved cash flow, so dealers can free up more cash on hand, making it easier for them to finance customer car purchases, and alleviates the financial strain caused by outstanding balances resulting from installment payments.

“BHPH financing opens the door for comprehensive financing solutions for both dealerships and customers alike”, says Jay Kamdar, President of Nowcom. “It is our hope that through this partnership, dealers will increase their opportunities to serve a broader customer base.”

It is expected that this venture will result in an expanded customer base, optimized operations, and increased financial freedom for customers seeking quality vehicles. For more information about DealerCenter visit www.dealercenter.com.
