FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Veratad Technologies,
LLC Partners with VisionMenu to
Provide a Seamless Integration of
Identity Verification and Red Flags
Rule Compliance
VisionMenu Automates
Identity Verification for Automotive
and Powersports Dealers
TEANECK, NEW
JERSEY March 31, 2011
– Veratad Technologies, LLC, a world
class provider of Identity
Verification and Compliance
Solutions, announced today that
Veratad’s Red Flags Rule and ID
Verification solutions will be
offered to all
VisionMenu, Inc., dealerships
nationwide.
VisionMenu, a high quality provider
of software selling solutions to
Automotive and Powersports
dealerships, selected Veratad to
provide a seamless solution that is
delivered to dealers directly within
the dealer’s menu services. This
online solution, which makes
verifying an identity a simple
matter of a few clicks, is designed
to protect dealerships against
losses due to fines for
non-compliance, as well as fraud and
identity theft.
“The
Red Flags Rule requires dealers to
detect, prevent and mitigate
identity theft. Dealers using
online ID verification are taking an
important step in meeting their
compliance requirements and assuring
the person presenting a verifying
document is in fact who they say
they are,” said John Ahrens,
Managing Director at Veratad. “In
addition to avoidance of fines for
non-compliance, use of online ID
verification is a way for dealers to
reduce their risk of fraud and
mitigate the reputational risk
associated with the theft of a
consumer’s identity.”
Finance professionals are in a
perfect position to assist their
dealerships with Red Flags Rule
compliance requirements by including
the identity verification with OFAC
just before vehicle delivery. This
approach not only protects
consumers, but also protects the
dealership from fraudulent
transactions without interrupting
the early stages of the sales cycle.
Ron
Martin, CEO of Vision Menu, said “We
selected Veratad because of their
industry leadership and experience.
We are always looking for
enhancements to our solutions that
will offer value to our dealership
customers, and while VisionMenu is
known for helping dealers sell more
units, increasing F&I product sales
and profitability analytics, the
addition of Veratad allows us to
offer our dealerships a powerful
tool that protects them from
fraudulent transactions and
potential fines for non-compliance.”
Veratad’s Red Flags Knowledge Based
Identity Verification tool is now
available in VisionMenu Pro. To
