FREQUENTLY ASKED

Questions

Is there a hard pull on the customer’s credit?

The prequalification is done using a soft credit pull. A hard pull (that may affect your customer's credit) will be done upon receipt of the completed credit application and signed financing documents (DOCSRCVD stage).

Is prequalification available using a custom credit app link?

Yes! Custom credit app links will automatically prequalify customers.

I don't use LaunchPAD. Can I use prequalification in DecisionLender?

No, prequalification is only available in the LaunchPAD portal or your custom credit app link. Contact us to get your LaunchPAD login info or your custom link today!

If I call an application in, can I prequalify my customer?

No. FFC cannot enter a prequalification on behalf of a dealer or customer.

What if my customer is not prequalified?

If your customer is not prequalified, LaunchPAD will display "no available offer found." You can add co-applicants via phone or by submitting another request in LaunchPAD for reconsideration.

Will the amount my customer is prequalified for be lower than if I use the full application process?

If your customer is not prequalified, the application will display "no available offer found." You can add co-applicants via phone or by submitting another application for reconsideration.
