AUSTIN, Texas — A+ Federal Credit Union, one of the largest operations in the Texas state capital, recently broadened its relationship with Wolters Kluwer Financial Services.

A+FCU officials announced they're joining Wolters Kluwer's AppOne platform for indirect lending, credit approval and compliance processes.

The credit union noted that it's not new to the auto finance market, but up until recently it focused on loans with franchise dealerships. Because of the AppOne platform, the organization said it's looking to expand its services and help members fund loans through independent dealerships within their footprint in Texas.

A+ Federal Credit Union has more than 80,000 members and 12 locations in the Austin area.

"A+FCU's mission is to fulfill dreams through life-long financial partnerships," stressed Sharon Gaugler, vice president of lending at A+ Federal Credit Union. "And this enhanced partnership helps us expand our auto lending options helping our members achieve their dreams." 

Lee Domingue, chief executive officer of indirect lending at Wolters Kluwer Financial Services, added, "We are excited to offer independent auto dealerships in Texas access to a strong lender that has built a solid reputation in the indirect lending space,"
