In March, FlexPath DXP launched patent-pending technology to help users prequalify for real credit options by providing as little information as a phone number.

On Tuesday, the provider of financial and digital marketing solutions announced relationship with the Ohio Independent Automobile Dealers Association (OIADA) as a vendor partner.

FlexPath CEO Tarry Shebesta said this strategic alliance underscores the company’s commitment to supporting independent dealers by providing them with tailored financial products and digital marketing services designed to enhance their business operations and customer satisfaction while helping them be more competitive in the marketplace.

“We are thrilled to partner with OIADA and become a vendor partner for independent automobile dealers in Ohio,” Shebesta said in a news release. “Through this partnership, we look forward to contributing to the success of OIADA members and the broader automotive industry.”

As a vendor partner, FlexPath will offer OIADA members access to a range of financial products and digital marketing tools, including VeriQual, that patent-pending identity verification and credit prequalification tool that needs just a phone number to function within a web app.

Additionally, FlexPath will provide educational resources and training to help dealers navigate the complexities of automotive financing and digital marketing strategies.

OIADA aims to offer its members access to a wide range of resources, including advocacy, education and networking opportunities.

“We are excited to welcome FlexPath as a vendor partner of OIADA,” OIADA executive director Wendy Rinehart said in the news release. “Their expertise and dedication to the automotive industry make them an invaluable resource for our members. We believe this partnership will bring significant benefits to our dealer community, helping them to thrive in a competitive market.”
