Blanket VSI involves charging a small premium to the borrower at loan origination, which can be excluded from the APR in most states. The premium is then used to pay for collateral and skip losses that occur after repossession. Miniter group delivers our blanket VSI programs with a unique approach that ensures rate stability to the lender in both good and bad economic cycles.

Dealer GAP contracts are debt cancellation contracts, not insurance policies. When the lender agrees to accept these contracts as part of the vehicle financing, the lender is agreeing to cancel any GAP debt if the borrower’s car is a total loss. The lender must file a claim with the dealer’s GAP provider to be reimbursed for the debt that was forgiven.
Miniter Group has years of expertise working with hundreds of dealer GAP providers, which enables us to get the best possible settlement of your GAP claim.

When a lender receives a repossession condition report with physical damage, the loan servicing department may not have the tools to identify the borrower’s insurance company, or the expertise to maximize claims payments.
Insurance companies know that bankers are not insurance experts. In our experience, they tend to “deny first” once they know they are dealing with a banker. They will quote some detail of the borrower’s insurance policy that the lender has neither the time nor the expertise to research. Without the proper expertise to respond to the denial, a legitimate claim payment may be missed.
Outsourcing your Lien-Holder Claims to Miniter will put our insurance experts to work for you. We have tools to identify your borrower’s last known insurance provider, and we will work with these insurance companies to make sure they pay all legitimate lien-holder claims.
