AmeriTrust Financial Technologies Inc. offers investors exposure to a scalable automotive finance platform with proprietary technology, targeting the underpenetrated used-vehicle leasing segment while generating revenue across origination, servicing and remarketing.
AmeriTrust Financial Technologies (TSXV:AMT,OTCQB:AMTFF,Frankfurt:1ZVA) is a publicly listed financial technology company operating in the US$1.6 trillion American automotive finance sector. The company has developed a proprietary, cloud-based platform that supports vehicle leasing and financing, asset servicing and remarketing. AmeriTrust’s technology connects dealers, consumers and funding partners through a streamlined digital workflow designed to automate underwriting, approvals, documentation and funding.
While AmeriTrust supports both loan and lease products, its strategic emphasis is on used-vehicle leasing, a segment that remains significantly underpenetrated in the US market. Leasing represents approximately 25 percent of new vehicle transactions, but only less than 2 percent of used vehicle sales, which are largely confined to OEM-certified programs.
AmeriTrust positions used-vehicle leasing as an affordability-focused alternative to traditional retail financing, offering lower monthly payments and reduced upfront costs for consumers, while creating incremental sales opportunities for dealers and attractive risk-adjusted returns for lending partners. The company’s integrated model allows it to generate revenue across the full asset lifecycle rather than relying on a single point of monetization.
AmeriTrust’s scalable model overview:
1) Dealers and Lenders submit customers to AmeriTrust.
2) AmeriTrust underwrites, approves, funds contract and retains servicing.
3) A-Trust (Bankruptcy remote) sells revenue to finance partners with servicing retained.
4) AmeriTrust Serves is a full servicing platform providing data and performance reporting.
5) AmeriTrust Auto is a remarketing platform focused on repossessions and lease returns offered at retail direct-to-consumer online versus traditional wholesale methods; 5a) Vehicles not sold through retail are liquidated wholesale at auction.
AmeriTrust Serves is the backbone of AmeriTrust’s servicing operation. It brings payments, customer support, portfolio monitoring, and analytics into a single unified system, delivering transparency, control, and performance insight for both AmeriTrust and its funding partners.
AmeriTrust Auto anchors AmeriTrust’s vehicle remarketing strategy, managing repossessions and lease-end inventory through a retail-first, direct-to-consumer approach. When retail isn’t viable, the focus can seamlessly shift to wholesale liquidation, maximizing asset value across the full loan and lease lifecycle.
