CVR partners with ATC to smooth out-of-state titling

The pandemic might have intensified a challenge that dealers could encounter more often if they retail a vehicle to a customer who resides somewhere else other than the state where the store operates.

Computerized Vehicle Registration (CVR) — a joint venture between CDK Global and Reynolds and Reynolds — recently announced a new partnership with Automotive Titling Corp. (ATC), a Colorado-based company that provides out-of-state title and registration services to dealers throughout the United States.

These two large brands in the electronic vehicle registration (EVR) space are combining forces to provide an enhanced and faster vehicle registration experience for car buyers in all 50 states.

“Our partnership with ATC will allow dealers nationwide to process in-state and out-of-state fees more accurately through on-demand fee quotes,” CVR senior director Monique Buduan said in a news release. “By automating fee quotes and documentation, we are creating a process that will enable car buyers to trust dealers to facilitate vehicle registration through an accurate, low-hassle experience.”

To further improve the experience, the companies indicated dealers will also have access to forms with auto-populated data tailored to each specific transaction, minimizing the risk of inaccurate documentation from the beginning.

“This partnership is the realization of a long-held vision to bring together the best EVR and out-of-state providers to create a seamless title process for our customers,” said Marcus Alley, vice president of strategic initiatives at ATC. “Title clerks will have the convenience of CVR’s EVR platform and expertise of ATC’s out-of-state solution to reduce unnecessary penalties for our customers.”

The companies added that EVR integrations for CVR and ATC will be rolled out on a state-by-state basis with integrations for select states made available by early this year. Currently, all CVR customers can leverage ATC services while integrations for their state are launched.
