Address Verification

Ensure all new loans are entered with a valid address. A search is performed against a North American US based address database which will notify of a discrepancy or alert that the address cannot be verified/found.

OFAC Verification

The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) name verification is available in Unity. A search is performed against the “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List” database to ensure the name of your client is not found at loan origination.

Credit Bureau Inquiry

Unity eliminates the need for duplicate entry with our integration into Credit Bureau.
Enter information in the appropriate area and:

  • Credit report is displayed on the screen for viewing/printing
  • Application fields are populated with creditor information
  • All credit reports are saved for future viewing
Document Approval

Integrated Document approval allows all authorized employees to have instant online access to any origination documents thus eliminating copies being mailed or transported to main office.

This option includes electronically mandating scanning of mandatory documents

Document Imaging

Document Imaging is integrated with the Unity system. Scanned documents replace copied images on file reducing storage space. Save time by enabling employees to quickly & easily view or print documents at the press of a button. Documents are readily available while approving a loan, taking payment or handling collections. Documents are indexed by social security number. Images can be created from a flatbed or multi-page scanner.

Auto Value Inquiry

Credex has integrated Black Book into Unity to give our clients the convenience of easily establishing “Auto Value” without leaving the system. Black Book is widely known and highly respected in the industry for offering timely, independent and accurate used car values.

Payment Processing & Collections

ACH

Loan payments can be automatically drafted from customer checking/savings account with Unity’s ACH module.

Debit Card Processing

Built into our loan software is the ability to post a payment with your customer’s card. You have the option to manually key the card in or use a swipe machine tied into our system. We do an immediate authorization from our software and if the money is available, post the payment! The funds are deposited into your bank account. No need for a separate card system.

Check by Phone

Your customers can make payments by phone. They provide you with their checking or savings account information and our software provides the electronic interface to debit their bank account and places the money into your bank.

Centralized Collections

Unity allows staff at a central location to place collection calls for all branches, update comments, promise dates and much more. Reports are available which allow you to measure performance on each collector.
