customized program for Payless Dealers, quick decisions based on customer
credit applications are made in the dealership and they have a process for
fast and accurate funding. We are constantly striving to provide solutions to
help our Payless Dealers succeed, and OAG Indirect is a tremendous addition to
our array of value added products and services," said Rick Stevens, President
