The story

Not only mainstream but alternative lenders are unable to figure out how to evaluate the risk profile of a borrower who lacks a credit score. Consequently, these individuals must turn to lenders with extremely high-interest rates and unrealistic payment terms. Most of these alternatives do not report customer accounts to credit bureaus, so these individuals are unable to establish credit history and eventually access traditional credit.

Tricolor uses advanced data analytics and technology to segment, or score, the Hispanic consumer and offer responsible, affordable, credit building loans on their purchase of a vehicle. It offers bilingual (English/Spanish) sales at nearly 30 locations in Texas and California and convenient payment processing via telephone, Web, mobile, or in-person.

Project’s highlights

Constant promotional campaigns
Used cars market is highly competitive, even though Tricolor specialises on loans with affordable monthly payments, extra incentive at the decision-making moment is needed to increase conversion. For example, referral bonus gives them a discount on their first payment and the one who referred also gets one for its next monthly bill.

Mobile and desktop landing pages
Responsiveness is a critical characteristic of Tricolor’s landing pages since most of its customer use mobile devices. Keeping meaningful information and using optimal layout, eases the customer’s decision making.

Content strategy
Since Tricolor’s target market are hispanic people with little to no credit score, the imagery and writing are casual and warm; usually presenting open-minded sales personnel. All this with the purpose to communicate empathy, trust and safety to the customers.

Repeat buyer program

A program meant for previous customers that finished paying a car loan with a good record overall. Offering a coupon to receive a special interest rate and loan conditions.

Referral program

Offering a reward to customers that are still paying for their loan and want to decrease their monthly payment. Also referrals benefit from that with extra services on confirmed purchase.

Auto Insurance website

A new website so customers could customize an insurance plan for their current car. Below screenshots are for the coming soon landing page.
