NEW YORK, NY, Aug 05 (MARKET WIRE) --
Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (OTCBB: SRCO), a leading provider of
consumer finance solutions to the powersports industry, announced today
that its relationship with an aggregator partner of online consumer
credit applications for the acquisition of powersports vehicles has
resulted in a much higher than anticipated volume of consumer credit
applications being processed by its iPLUS(R) credit decisioning engine
during the last three months.
Anthony Havens, Sparta's CEO, stated, "The significant increase in online
consumer credit applications that Sparta is receiving through this
aggregator partner validates our investment over the last three years in
the development of our iPLUS(R) credit decisioning software. iPLUS(R)
allows us, on a scalable basis, to process increased volumes of
applications without a proportional increase in staffing levels and other
operating costs." Havens further stated, "This increased application flow
further reinforces the fact that despite the problems in other sectors of
the credit markets, consumer interest in acquiring powersports vehicles
continues to grow. We attribute this, at least in part, to the growing
number of people who are reacting to record high gas prices by choosing
motorcycles or scooters as a much more economical way to meet their
commuting and local travel needs."
Although most of the company's business is still generated through a
nationwide network of authorized retail powersports dealers, Havens
further commented that, "We're anticipating that the online portion of
our business will continue to contribute to the substantial increase in
the value of our overall portfolio."
