Two service providers are working together to help credit union members find the used model they want or get more for the vehicle they want to sell.

Member Auto Center, a credit union-owned vehicle shopping program, recently partnered with E-Dealer Direct to offer FlipCar, a unique vehicle selling solution to Member Auto Center users.

Whether a member is trading in or just selling, the companies said FlipCar can pave the way for greater market opportunity on the sale of any vehicle.

Designed to work directly with members and their credit union, FlipCar’s technology and proprietary digital marketplace can provide members a competitive advantage when selling their vehicle. FlipCar offers are different because they are the result of buyers in different markets nationwide competing to purchase a member's vehicle — ensuring a member receives true market value for their vehicle and not just an offer based on value guides.

“In this tech-driven world, it’s more important than ever for credit unions and their members to take advantage of the benefits of powerful digital tools like FlipCar,” E-Dealer Direct chief executive officer Victor Valenzuela said in a new release.

“We believe the addition of FlipCar to Member Auto Center is a natural complement of capabilities that combine the power of a convenient car shopping experience with a superior trade-in tool with the collective goal of solving credit union member challenges,” Valenzuela continued.

CU Alliance executive vice president John Riley highlighted that the addition of FlipCar enhances the Member Auto Center toolkit and delivers a convenient and seamless vehicle shopping experience to all members.

“We are excited with the addition of FlipCar to the Member Auto Center program and anticipate great benefits and a better user experience for credit union members. Finally, Members do not have to settle for low trade-in offers.” Riley said in the news release.

“We are confident FlipCar will also help position credit union car loans in a better equity position, especially during this very unique auto market,” he went on to say.
