How New Technology is Reshaping Loans

Finance | 02/04/2022 23:00

Technology has changed so much of our daily lives. Even before the pandemic dictated that we do everything online – from meetings to school to buying groceries – our lives were quickly migrating away from face-to-face interactions.


And now, in a world where business has shifted almost entirely online, financial institutions are trying to figure out how to adapt to consumer needs. Advancements in technology, from cloud integration to artificial intelligence programs, have changed how loans – including auto refinancing – are created.


All of these changes have improved loan decision efficiency, consumer experience, and created consumer savings through competition. Let’s look at exactly how technology has reshaped loans.


Here’s how advancements in technology have changed loans and the auto refinancing industry.


Cloud Technology Makes Loan Origination Cheaper and More Efficient

Cloud technology has been a game changer for so many industries. The ability to store information remotely has reduced the need for on-premise infrastructure greatly. The IT equipment and operating expenses (including personnel and electricity) were very costly necessities in a world where data storage systems and dedicated server rooms were mandatory.

But then cloud technology came along and everything changed. Suddenly companies could migrate data from their onsite servers to remote locations and free up a ton of resources by doing so. A reduction in expenses was just one of the benefits of cloud technology.

Loan origination software (LOS) became widely available to lenders via the cloud, allowing financial institutions of all types – including auto refinancers – to have access to the latest artificial intelligence. This accessibility has many far reaching implications.


Quick Entry Into the Market

Cloud technology means that new lenders can enter the market faster. They don’t need to set up new software and data management systems – they can instead use existing cloud technology. This allows greater access for startups and creates more competition. And more competition often means more savings for you.


For example, if you were going to refinance your car in the past, you would have had only a few options of lenders. But now there are new lenders popping up all the time, keeping everyone on their toes. Rates and terms need to constantly be adjusted to stay competitive. 


Software Updates Improve Experiences

Bugs and software issues are inevitable with any form of technology. When data was stored and managed on premise, an issue could take weeks if not months to resolve depending on the size and IT management of the company. But cloud technology ensures that when there is an issue it is widely reported and quickly resolved. Regular software updates create an ease of use for lenders, making the loan industry faster and, again, creating more competition.


Scalability Helps Lenders Increase Their Reach

Cloud technology allows lenders to scale their companies up faster than ever. As conducting business online allows them to reach more people, they can easily expand their companies using the cloud. No need to bring in additional expensive IT – everything is remote and ready to accommodate lenders’ growing needs. 


An added advantage is the cloud’s constantly developing security. Advancements in technology routinely keep data more and more secure.


Automation Technology Makes Loan and Auto Refinancing Decisions Faster and More Accurate

Advancements in automation technology have also helped lenders to make faster and more accurate decisions regarding loans and auto refinancing.


Paper Applications are Replaced with Digital Forms

Traditionally, loan applications were a lengthy and tedious process for both the lender and the consumer. For the consumer, they would need to fill out paperwork by hand, often repeating the same information over and over again (even to just obtain a quote). They would then need to collect all necessary documents (bank statements, proof of address, pay stubs, etc) and physically deliver them to their bank. 


This was time consuming and often led to incomplete applications. Lenders estimate that 30% of applications that they used to receive were missing information. 


All of this took a lot of time for the lender as well. Some lenders estimate that a refinance application used to take about two hours to process. They would have to go over all of the application information, verify the documents, chase down incomplete information, and so on and so on. 


But now, this is all digital. Applications now have required fields and cannot be accepted as incomplete. And thanks to your personal computer, you can usually autofill all of this information instead of painstakingly typing and retyping.


So an application for auto refinancing that would have taken twenty minutes in the past can now be done in a matter of seconds. Applicants can easily get quotes and apply for refinancing faster than ever before. All of this increased competition leads to more – you guessed it – savings.


Increased Consumer Data Makes Artificial Intelligence Decisions More Accurate

Decisions on these applications can now be made more accurately as well. With the growth of consumer data, artificial intelligence can look at trended data to make more informed lending decisions. And since so much data is now stored and shared online, lenders have more information to look at when making their decisions. Payment histories and accounts that were never factored into decisions before can now be easily found and considered in conjunction with an application. Lenders can now compare a much more well-rounded applicant to a much more accurate predictive data segment to decide on loan and auto refinancing approval. 


Data thresholds can quickly eliminate unqualified applicants. Establishing a baseline credit score that is needed can ensure that lenders are only looking at qualified applicants. But they can also filter certain applicants that are questionable into an application pool that requires further consideration. 


If you were applying to refinance your car and the lender required a 600 credit score to refinance, but your credit score was only 500, you would immediately be disqualified. But if your credit score was a 580, your application might be filtered to a lending expert who could better assess your situation. This makes the best of both worlds – drastically under-qualified applicants do not slow down other application reviews, while people who may be deemed as credit-worthy can still be considered.


All of this is calculated automatically, making both quotes and approvals so much faster.


Faster Decisions Means More Savings

With all of this work now automated, there is much more room for savings. By eliminating so much extra work, money and resources are now free to create more competitive loan and refinancing offers.


Automation Creates More Time for Customer Interaction with Loan and Auto Refinancing Applicants 

Application reviews that used to take days can now be done in minutes thanks to improvements in automation. This frees up employees to take more time fostering consumer relationships. These relationships can greatly impact consumer decisions and referrals (just take a look on TrustPilot to see how important these interactions are to consumers).


Consumers want a positive experience all around. While they definitely want to save money when they take out an initial loan or decide to refinance an existing loan (after all, that’s the whole point of refinancing) money is not all that matters to them. In fact consumers rank the following as being integrally important to their lending decisions:


  • Transparent processes, terms, and conditions

  • Employee interaction and helpfulness

  • Support with application issues

  • Flexible repayment terms


All of these things are important to consumers and can be improved as a result of automation. With more free time, employees can guide applicants on the terms and conditions and make sure there is a full understanding of the loan structure. They can offer personalized advice when consumers are unsure of repayment options or other conditions. 


Having close contact with customers can help improve the overall experience. If there are problems with any online procedures, from filling out the application to document uploading to esignatures, employees have more time to help them navigate. Employees can also take a more active role in suggesting improvements to the application process.


We know when it comes to refinancing your car, guidance with a personal touch can make all of the difference. 


Those are some of the ways that technology is reshaping loans and auto refinancing.

Technology has changed our lives in so many ways, and many would argue that it’s for the best. The way the auto refinancing and loan origination is conducted is a prime example of how technology can create healthy competition, save consumers money, and create a better consumer experience overall. 

At Auto Approve, we know that a great overall customer experience is of the highest importance. Because if you’re not happy, we’re not happy. But don’t just take our word for it: listen to our customers and let them tell you about their experiences.

Are Seat Belts Really That Important? Here’s What The Science Says

You probably wear one every time you’re in a car, but how much do you really know about seat belts?The very first safety belt was invented in the 1800s, but seat belts weren’t a required accessory in cars until the late 1960s, and laws mandating seat belt usage didn't arrive for another 20 years. And they weren’t exactly popular. In fact, regulations that required the automotive industry to provide seat belts were initially fought by the Reagan administration! Today, however, seat belt usage in the United States is around 92% and seatbelts are believed to save around 15,000 American lives per year.In this article, we’ll take a look at the humble seat belt: how seat belts work, seat belt history, and the safety statistics for seat belt usage today.(And yes, according to AP Style, it’s “seat belt” – two words!)Your Complete Guide to Seat BeltsSeat belts are everywhere. But why do we have to wear them, how do they work, and where did they come from? Read on to learn more about this life-saving device.Seat Belts: Essential FactsLet’s start with the basics. Seat belts are usually made up of:Anchors, the places where the seat belt is securely attached to the carWebbing, the actual fabric belt itself (or belts), usually made from a strong and elastic tightly woven polyesterBuckle(s), the socket and tongue system that secure the webbing around the seat occupantRetractor(s), the mechanism that controls the amount of webbing in use and its fit, sometimes equipped with a pre-tensioner that reacts to sudden pulls and locks the belt in place for safetyGenerally, seat belts are classed by “points” – meaning anchors, the places where the belt is attached to the vehicle. You may have seen a few different kinds of seat belts around. The seatbelts on planes are typically two-point lap belts, variations of which are also sometimes still seen in the rear seats of older vehicle models. These seat belts are attached to the vehicle at two points, one on either side of your hips, thus the name.The most ubiquitous seatbelts in the United States, however, are what are called three point seat belts – think car seat belts with both a lap and shoulder (sash) strap, meeting together at one point with a buckle. These three-point belts – first invented by engineer Nils Bohlin for Volvo in the 1950s – are legally mandated by the U.S., U.K., and Canada, among others, for their improved safety.That said, seat belt types don’t end at three points! If you’ve ever watched NASCAR or fastened a child’s car seat, you might be familiar with 4, 5, and 6-point belts, and some aerial artists even use a 7-point system to make sure they’re protected from falls.How Seat Belts WorkThinking back to physics class, you might remember that an object in motion tends to stay in motion. In an accident, if your car hits something and suddenly stops, your body – if not attached to the car – will continue moving forward. Many of the worst injuries and fatalities on the road come when a person is ejected from the vehicle or hits the dashboard or vehicle ceiling. While seat belts might not be perfect at preventing all injuries, they significantly reduce the risk of serious injury or death by holding a person in place.Interestingly, Nils Bohlin, the Volvo engineer who invented the 3 point seat belt, had previously been employed in aviation as an engineer working on systems for safely ejecting from fighter jets. He applied many of the same principles of motion when he was charged with making vehicles safer.You may be overpaying on your auto loanCar dealerships mark up their prices, leaving you paying more than you need to be.

All it takes is a few clicks – no commitment required. Better safe than sorry, right?Get a free quote to see how much you could save.Seat Belt History The First Seat BeltsAs mentioned above, the very first safety belt was arguably invented in the early 1800s. Sir George Cayley, an English aerial pioneer who designed the first successful glider to carry a human being, included a rudimentary harness on the glider. The line, however, from that harness to today’s ubiquitous seat belts is not a straight one. While Cayley may have been the first to think strapping in made safety sense as new vehicles developed, his idea didn’t catch on like wildfire. Seat belts don’t appear again until, separately, a New Yorker named Edward J. Claghorn patented an idea for a harness for taxi passengers in 1885, and it wasn’t until the 1920s that similar devices came into the public consciousness when race car pioneer Barney Oldfield commissioned a parachute manufacturer to create a system to strap him into his vehicle for the Indy 500.Even then, seatbelts remained deeply unpopular. According to AAA, there was a belief at the time that it was safer to be ejected from the vehicle, and car manufacturers worried that too many safety features would imply that their vehicles weren’t safe to drive.For those reasons, it wasn’t until Nils Bohlin invented the three-point belt – much as we know it today, with one continuous belt to protect both the upper and lower body, attached by a single buckle – that seat belts really took off.Seat Belts As We Know ThemBohlin’s three-point belts improved vehicle safety greatly and started to become commonplace in some parts of the world. This expansion was greatly aided by the fact that Bohlin and Volvo decided to give the design for the seat belt away for free, making it available to all vehicle manufacturers in the late 1950s.In 1961, Wisconsin became the first U.S. state to require seat belts be installed in the front seats of cars, and in 1968, some sort of belt in the front seat was a federal requirement. But that’s not the end of the story, by far! It might be strange now to think of, but as recently as the 1970s and ‘80s, seat belts were controversial and faced legal challenges in the United States. The Reagan administration tried to turn the tide on regulations requiring manufacturers to include seat belts, revoking the existing regulations. In an unexpected twist, it was insurers who sued to get the seat belt requirements reinstated in the interest of passenger safety. They won their case in the Supreme Court, and seat belts became a required part of each new vehicle produced or sold in the United States.From there, states began rolling out different regulations requiring drivers and passengers to wear their seat belts, starting with New York mandating those in the front seat of a vehicle wear a seat belt or face a fine. These laws were seen by some as government overreach and an infringement on personal freedoms, but as study after study showed that belts reduced the risk of fatalities, head injury, and other serious injuries, public opinion came around.Today, every state except New Hampshire has some sort of law on the books requiring seat belt usage, though details, enforcement, and possible consequences vary.Seat Belt Safety StatisticsFor many people, the biggest question is. Do seat belts actually make you safer? And the answer is a resounding yes.According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, part of the US Department of Transportation, in 2017 alone, seat belts saved 14,955 lives and could have saved 2,549 more.Here are a few more key facts from the NHTSA:Being ejected from a car in a crash is almost always fatal.If you’re not buckled up, air bags not only won’t be enough to protect you, but can do serious injury. Air bags are designed to be used in conjunction with seat belts – not instead of them.Improper seat belt use – using only one part of the belt or placing it under your arm – is less effective and can be dangerous.Most importantly, correctly wearing your three-point seat belt when in a passenger car reduces your risk of fatal injury by 45% and of moderate or critical injury by 50%. These numbers are even higher for light truck drivers and passengers (60% and 65%, respectively).In Short, Seat Belts Make Riding In A Car SaferNow you know so much more about the what, how, and why of seat belt safety! Make sure you buckle up on your next ride, whether it’s a quick trip to the grocery store or an epic road trip, and encourage your loved ones to do the same.Put more money in your pocket for the things that matterFind out how much you can save by refinancing your vehicle with Auto Approve.

How to Save Money on Groceries in 2025

Looking for ways to save money on groceries? You’re not alone. Lots of people are on the hunt for tricks to spend less this year.Grocery prices are up, and for a wide number of reasons – from supply chain challenges to corporations raising prices to changes in international trade. But the why doesn’t matter when you’re in the check out line – only how to lower your bill.Fortunately, there are many simple ways you can pay less for groceries in 2025, despite higher price tags on many essentials.In this article, we’ve gathered 8 simple tips and tricks you can apply right away to start reducing your grocery store costs.8 Tips For Saving Money at the Grocery StoreWhile not all of these ideas will work for everyone (and there will likely be some things here you’re already doing!), there should be something here for anyone wondering how to save money on groceries in 2025.1. Plan, Plan, PlanThe number one most important thing to do when trying to spend less at the grocery store is plan ahead. Planning allows you to create a budget and stick to it.Make a meal plan for the week and then a grocery list based on that meal plan. Doing this can help avoid unnecessary or splurge purchases and stay on track at the grocery store. Planning for several days in a row can also help ensure you’re getting enough variety, not planning too many expensive items in one week, and not overestimating how much cooking you can handle.Being realistic when planning can help you stay on track. If you know one day will be busy, plan a simple and quick recipe for that day. If you usually get take away several nights a week, choose one night to pick-up pre-made food, or include frozen meals in your planning. Yes, making food from scratch will generally cost less than pre-made or take away options, but you’re allowed to work up to it. It’s ok if you don’t turn into Julia Child overnight – the idea is to make small, sustainable steps toward spending less in the long term!Pro Tip: Finding that your meal plans are still leaving you over budget? The problem might be a too-expensive menu at the foundation. Consider adding more affordable dishes to your recipe rotation.2. Keep Track Of What You HaveBetween 30 and 40 percent of food in the US turns into food waste, including 31 percent at the customer and retail level. That means a lot of us are buying more food than we eat. Obviously, that means there’s room for improvement in how we collectively shop and use the food we buy.The first way to combat food waste is by making sure you know what’s already in your fridge and cabinets. If one dish will only use part of something perishable, make sure your menu for the week uses up the other half of it. If multiple people in the house buy groceries, keep a shared grocery list and update it regularly to avoid double buying. And, to save money, occasionally do an audit – of your fridge, freezer, and dry and canned goods – and make sure to work what you already have into your menu.You’ll pay less at the store, and you might find a new recipe or combination of things you like!3. Buy What You’ll UseOn a similar note, you can avoid food waste (and tossing hard-earned dollars in the trash!) by buying only what you need and know you will use. If you’re someone who (like your humble blog writer) can only really plan 3 or 4 days out before you start getting restless, don’t buy 7 days of groceries knowing you’ll likely deviate from your plans. Buy 3 or 4 days of ingredients and make another trip later in the week. If two smaller trips can work for your schedule, you’ll be more likely to use what you buy – and, as a bonus, your fruit, vegetables, dairy, and proteins will be fresher when you get to them.This also applies to buying in bulk or buying smaller containers of things. Buy what you’ll use. That means, if you know you use a lot of something and you can get it cheaper per unit by buying in bulk, do it! If you know you use only a little of something in the course of a year, buying a smaller package might make sense. While it’s true that buying in bulk usually saves money, when things are tight, if you almost never use balsamic vinegar and just ran out, it’s ok to pay $5 for a small bottle instead of $9 for one twice the size – sometimes holding onto $4 now is more precious than paying one less dollar in six months or a year.Buying 6 giant bottles of olive oil might mean paying less for olive oil by volume, but if it costs $70 that you can’t now use on other things, have you made the right choice for your budget?4. Look Out For DiscountsThis is a simple solution, but no less effective!There are tons of ways to get discounts on food. You can join store membership programs that allow you to collect points or qualify you for member prices. You can shop weekly sales and collect coupons. And you can join programs designed to combat food waste to connect you to stores with excess products or food they think will expire before it sells, like Olio, FlashFood, and Too Good To Go.Leaving a little flexibility or using weekly sale flyers to make your meal plan can help you pay less for your ingredients and meals.Looking for another way to put more money in your pocket?Consider refinancing your vehicle with Auto Approve. Many people are paying more than they need to on their monthly car payment, thanks to dealer markups and volatile interest rates. Discover how much you could save on your monthly car payment in just a few minutes.Get your free quote now.5. Don’t Be Afraid To Get GranularPrice comparing every item you shop might feel maddening at first, but if you’re not putting a lot of thought into the brands you choose or how much of something you buy, now’s a good time to start. While 70 cents here and 30 cents there might seem too small to be worth considering, you can shift your total costs for the year significantly by making those small choices over and over.Sure, sometimes the extra dollar comes with a huge jump in quality, but in many cases, store brands and generic brands are essentially identical to their pricier counterparts. If you have wiggle room, it’s generally best to pick your battles so you never feel like you’re depriving yourself. Financial psychologists suggest that using up too much self control on little things can make you more likely to splurge on something bigger over time.Pro tip: If you go looking, most grocery stores have a scale for customer use in the produce aisle, so if you want to get extra nitpicky, you can start weighing your fruits and vegetables to make sure you stay under budget.6. Branch Out From RoutineAnother way to save money at the grocery store is to look for lower cost options in new places. This can mean trying a vegetable or protein you haven’t made before from your regular store, or trying out new stores. Price comparing your favorite items at competitor stores can help you find deals – and so can branching out to specialty stores. Try visiting local markets that tailor to specific international or regional cuisines, retailers’ cooperatives, or small stores and markets that work directly with local producers. You might find that there are things that cost much less there, and you might find new affordable ingredients that excite you!7. Buy Local & SeasonalOn a similar note, while farmers’ markets have a reputation for organic produce and higher prices, you can sometimes find great deals on produce when dealing directly with the people that grow and harvest it. Keeping track of what’s in season and abundant can give you a clue as to what’s likely to be most affordable.Plus, with prices to import goods from other countries potentially fluctuating, you can avoid sticker shock by keeping track of what’s grown in your area and planning to buy and eat what’s readily available and unaffected by any potential shifts.8. Never Shop Hungry!Last but certainly not least, this is old wisdom, but it holds true. Don’t go to the grocery store hungry! Simply don’t do it! It’s a recipe for coming home with a pile of unplanned snacks and a half baked dinner plan.And Those Are The Best Ways To Save Money on GroceriesNow you know how to save money at the grocery store – all that’s left is to put these tips to work.

Nomadland (2020)Nomadland is a visually striking drama about a woman, played with depth and subtlety by Frances McDormand, who loses everything and moves into an RV. Based on a true story, it was a critical darling when it was released in 2020, and while the quiet pacing may not be for everyone, it’s a stunning portrait of a difficult life juxtaposed with incredible views of the American West.3. Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)This post-apocalyptic action movie may not exactly inspire your next road trip, but it’s certainly a thrilling and well-made action adventure.

Paper Moon (1973)With a 91% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes and 94% audience score, Paper Moon is a gem of a movie. It’s a crime comedy with a heart that was released in 1973 but shot in black and white and styled to look like an old Hollywood classic. It stars real life father and daughter Ryan O'Neal and Tatum O'Neal as a con-man tasked with bringing a little girl to relatives after the death of her mother, only to find that the little girl has a natural knack for confidence tricks.5. Smokey and The Bandit (1977)While perhaps less of a critical darling, no road trip movie list would be complete without Smokey and the Bandit. This classic action trucker comedy – which was a box office hit, to be clear, despite lukewarm reviews – follows notorious truckers Bandit and Snowman (played by Burt Reynolds and Jerry Reid) as they attempt to smuggle 400 cases of Coors beer from Texas to Atlanta.6. Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)Arguably the only major Thanksgiving movie, Planes, Trains and Automobiles is an annual rewatch for many. It’s a deeply goofy comedy with a heart of gold starring superstar funnymen Steve Martin and John Candy as two strangers who do everything to make it to Chicago for Thanksgiving.7. The Muppet Movie (1979)If you’ve ever heard Kermit the Frog sing about a rainbow connection, then you already know a little bit about The Muppet Movie. The first movie starring the iconic Muppet characters, this road trip movie takes Kermit and Fozzie across the U.S. (and perhaps briefly Canada) in search of fame and fortune in Hollywood. Along the way, they meet new friends, face dangers, and even, in the case of a particular lady pig, fall in love.8. Chef (2014)This uplifting dramedy was a passion project of Jon Favreau, who wrote, produced, directed and starred – quite the feat! Chef tells the story of a chef at a fine dining restaurant in Los Angeles who clashes with the restaurant’s owner, quits in spectacular fashion, and ends up traveling to Miami after a viral meltdown. There, he’s given a broken down old food truck, which he restores with the help of family and community, then sets out on the road to drive back to Los Angeles.9. Sideways (2004)Sideways is a critically acclaimed road trip film in the tradition of smart but depressing dramedies about midlife. It follows two men in their forties going on a two-man bachelor party weekend in California’s wine country. Thomas Haden Church stars as a washed up actor about to be married and Paul Giamatti plays his friend, a divorced teacher and unpublished author.10. Zombieland (2009)Last but certainly not least, Zombieland is a comedic horror movie set in a future where a zombie plague has taken hold, starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone, and Abigail Breslin. They play survivors of the plague who work together to drive to a rumored safe zone in California.Special MentionsThese are the 10 films we selected as the best road trip movies, but there are many more great movies (and a few beloved movies of dubious quality) that feature a road trip.
