has joined its credit union platform.
AppOne helps Pelican State Credit Union connect with auto, marine and RV dealerships

credit unions to expedite the loan process and help ensure that the dealerships

that automates the indirect lending process, helping us serve existing and potential

to gain access to more financing options for their customers, which can ultimately
help them sell more cars, RVs and boats.”
