The story

LeftLane was founded in 2022 to replace legacy Buy Here Pay Here dealer management systems (Frazer, AutoAction, DealerCenter) with a modern cloud DMS that bundles inventory, deal structuring, OCCC-compliant contracts, collections automation, and payment processing. Its embedded-finance angle is narrow but real: LeftLane acts as the payment processor for subprime auto installment payments, letting dealers accept card and ACH payments by text link, and layers in credit integrations (700Credit) and QuickBooks accounting sync. The company remains a Texas-focused vertical SaaS play with roughly a dozen employees as of 2026.
