Private Label Partnership Drives More Sales Through Fast, Easy Financing and Branded, Lifecycle Marketing
NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Octane® (Octane Lending, Inc.®), the fintech revolutionizing the buying experience for major recreational purchases, and RideNow, a RumbleOn company and the largest powersports retailer in North America, announced a partnership to launch branded finance in RideNow's 56 retail stores under the RideNow Finance brand.
Effective immediately, RideNow Powersports customers can purchase over 18,000 new and pre-owned vehicles from a large selection of manufacturers using RideNow Finance. The new private label partnership allows RideNow Powersports dealerships to leverage Octane's digital tools and fast, easy, full-spectrum financing experience under its own name. Additionally, this partnership will help drive higher quality leads by giving RideNow Powersports dealerships the ability to run their own branded financing promotions, integrate branded financing messaging into their marketing initiatives, and reach customers throughout the lifecycle of their loan.
At the same time, RideNow Finance customers will benefit from broad credit coverage and a seamless, end-to-end financing experience that make it faster and easier to get outdoors on their dream vehicle.
This partnership is the only private label branded financing for a dealership group in the nearly $30 billion powersports market, which includes motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), utility vehicles (UTVs), and personal watercraft, and builds on the longstanding relationship between two leaders in the space; Octane has been one of RideNow's preferred lenders since 2017.
"Our dealerships are laser focused on providing a great buying experience for our customers," said RumbleOn CEO Mike Kennedy. "The opportunity to ease the financing process through RideNow Finance is exactly how we will take the experience to the next level."
