Frequently asked questions
eContracting for CUDL seamlessly integrates with the CUDL platform, which handles the credit application and decision. The loan moves into eContracting to create and validate digital contracts, e-sign documents, and quickly submit contracts to lenders, ultimately allowing you to get funded faster.
Our solution will be available to all CUDL credit unions. However, dealers’ ability to use eContracting is dependent on credit union adoption.
No, eContracting is an evolution of the digital document experience and SmartFund remains an important solution to elevate that process, offering a different way for dealers to submit funding packages.
SmartFund digitizes documents for electronic submission, focusing on digital submission without managing the contract lifecycle. In contrast, eContracting digitalizes the entire contract process, ensuring accuracy and reducing errors or missing data that might require reworking contracts later.
Retail new and used vehicles only.
Currently, eContracting for CUDL does not support Spot Delivery, also known as “Spot Buy.” A spot buy is where a buyer takes possession of a vehicle before financing is finalized, placing applications in a “refer” status. We’re actively working on future enhancements to include support for Spot Delivery, so stay tuned for updates.
To enable this feature, dealers should reach out to their DMS provider for activation. Additional fees may apply. Below is a list of available DMS integration partners:
