NetSol Technologies Announces Partnership With Australian Motor Finance Pty., Ltd.
Potential Multi-Million Dollar Revenue-Sharing Agreement for New Point-of-Sale Software Solution
NetSol Technologies, Inc. , a
developer of proprietary software applications and provider of information
technology (IT) services, today announced NetSol-Abraxas, its wholly-owned
subsidiary, has formed a strategic partnership with Australian Motor
Finance Pty., Ltd. (AMF), one of Australia's largest automotive lenders.
Under terms of the potentially multi-million dollar partnership agreement,
which provides for transaction-based revenue-sharing, NetSol will design
and implement a customized point-of-sale (POS) system for AMF's wholesale
funding initiatives.
NetSol will receive a payment for every deal accepted by AMF via its new
NetSol point-of-sales system, in lieu of its standard license fee. The
product launch will begin with the more than 100 dealers in New South
Wales. This will be followed by roll-outs in Victoria, South Australia,
Northern Australia, Queensland, and Western Australia. The initial target
market exceeds 400 dealers with main lender systems already in place which
are compatible with NetSol's new solution. The company then anticipates
launching a version for the motorcycle, golf buggy, and boat finance
markets.
"We are pleased to announce this significant new partnership with AMF,
which provides for a recurring revenue stream with tremendous upside
potential that could exceed $2 million within two years," said Fred Firth,
Managing Director of NetSol-Abraxas, Australia. "In addition to being a
unique partnership, the deliverable will be a more robust,
technologically-advanced variant of the typical NetSol-Abraxas dealer
system, OASYS, which already dominates the Australian car finance market."
The new AMF OASYS system will streamline what is already a popular
alternative for car dealers who have had a finance deal declined by their
primary finance source. The new system will enable dealers to re-submit
the declined deals to AMF and process them automatically, as opposed to
today's standard time consuming method of manual entry.
"Our research indicates that auto dealers in Australia are losing more than
10 percent of sales due to a lack of suitable finance products tailored to
'first chance' borrowers or those with a negative credit history," said Ian
Brindley, Executive Director of Melbourne's Australian Motor Finance. "The
big players in the auto finance market are often constrained by the sheer
volume of deals processed daily, which limits the risk flexibility of their
credit assessments. With the cutting-edge system from NetSol-Abraxas we
can automatically capture and process these declined deals while the
customer is still in the car dealership, thus exponentially increasing the
number of applications we can process."
About Australian Motor Finance
Australian Motor Finance was formed in 1999 to commercialize an innovative
motor vehicle lending product for the non-conforming market. It will allow
the large and growing number of consumers who do not meet increasingly
automated and "templated" financing requirements to purchase better quality
motor vehicles. These customers can be defined as First Chance Borrowers
-- traditionally the young or those without a finance history -- and Second
Chance Borrowers -- people often with very minor credit defaults.
Australian Motor Finance couples sophisticated account monitoring and
collections platforms and policies with active account management,
including face-to-face interviews, designed to reduce the risk of default.
Flexible payment options, including timing of payments to coincide with
payment of salaries and credit card payments, also reduce the risk of
default.
