VinHub is the most advanced floorplan collateral monitoring system ever created. It watches your dealers' inventory 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — detecting out-of-trust sales the day they happen and cross-referencing every funded VIN against live market data. Whether you floorplan 200 units or 200,000, VinHub gives floorplan providers of every size the same institutional-grade collateral protection that, until now, only the largest lenders could afford.
The True Cost of Floorplan Fraud
Floorplan fraud drains lender portfolios long before a physical audit would ever catch it. Here's what's at stake.
A distressed dealer uses the same VINs to secure duplicate loans from multiple lenders at once — often keeping two sets of books and physically shuffling cars between lots to dodge auditors.
Recent example
Stellantis Financial Services and Ford Credit uncovered a double-flooring scheme at an Iowa dealership group — $18.9M+ in combined lender lawsuits.
The most common floorplan fraud. A dealer sells a vehicle to a consumer, pockets the cash to cover operating costs or personal debt, and never repays the lender holding the title.
Why it's hard to catch
Trust-based reporting and 30–90 day audit cycles mean the vehicle is long gone — and the cash with it — before the lender ever notices.

$100M–$300M+
"Sold Out of Trust" (SOT) & Floorplan Fraud
SOT occurs when a dealer sells financed inventory but fails to remit the payoff to the lender. High-profile collapses (e.g., the $50M Reagor Dykes case and recent $20M+ multi-store defaults) skew individual years heavily — single dealership-group failures routinely wipe out $10M–$50M in lender exposure at once.

Total Industry Credit & Default Losses
Broader annualized credit write-offs and default losses on North American floorplan portfolios — varying with used-vehicle value cycles, interest-rate shifts, and dealer distress events.
< 10%
Recovery on Fraud Default
Standard repossessions yield moderate recovery, but fraudulent SOT cases yield near-zero recovery. Once a dealer misdirects floorplan proceeds, lenders absorb 90%+ of the remaining uncollateralized line.
0.05%–0.30%
Loss-to-Portfolio Ratio
Floorplan loans are among the highest-performing commercial asset classes — net loss rates historically stay under 30 basis points in normal markets, but spike during sudden used-car value drops or interest-rate shifts.

The "True Cost" Multiplier
Every $1.00 lost to lending fraud costs U.S. commercial lenders $5.38 — legal fees, recovery, forensic audits, and overhead. — LexisNexis Risk Solutions

Revenue Depletion
Organizations lose an average of 5% of annual revenue to undetected or unresolved operational fraud. — ACFE
Years
Recovery Delays
Once a dealer defaults into bankruptcy or seizure, lenders wait years to recover pennies on the dollar — while the physical collateral depreciates fast.
Proactive Mitigation
Catching dealer distress early with real-time VIN cross-referencing reduces floorplan loss rates by up to 35% — that's exactly what VINAFI AI Flooring delivers.
The Daily-Monitoring Upside
Today's 28–90 day audit cycles let vehicles and cash disappear before a lender notices. VinHub catches the out-of-trust sale the day it happens — so collateral can be recovered while it's still recoverable.

Detection vs. 28–90 Day Cycles
VinHub flags an out-of-trust sale the day it occurs — collapsing the blind spot that lets vehicles and proceeds vanish between physical audits.

The Problem We Solve
At $3.50+ per gallon and rising labor costs, driving auditors between dealers is expensive, slow, and leaves 28-day blind spots in your portfolio. VinHub replaces all of it with round-the-clock collateral surveillance that never sleeps.
How It Works
VinHub continuously scans every dealer partner's website and inventory channels — capturing a live snapshot of current stock, day and night.
Every change — vehicles added or removed — is instantly cross-referenced against your active floorplan records to flag what matters.
The moment a discrepancy is identified, your team receives an alert. Auditors are dispatched only when truly necessary.
Stop searching for the right lender contact. Vinafi's exclusive network already knows exactly who owns the lien and how to reach them. Because we hold and maintain deep lender intelligence in our system, our floorplan monitoring doesn't just identify an issue — it initiates the automated reconciliation process across our entire connected lender network, instantly. No more phone tag. No more guessing. Just immediate, verified communication the moment collateral risk is detected.
Lenders Connected
One proprietary, automated network — exclusive to Vinafi. Direct communication to thousands of financial institutions, with zero manual outreach.
State-Direct DMV Inquiry Network
For floorplan lenders, information latency is a financial risk. We've replaced reliance on fragmented commercial data aggregators with our own State-Direct Inquiry Network — a digital bridge directly to state-level DMV and title records across the U.S.
Access real-time vehicle title, lienholder, and ownership data across 44+ state DMVs and jurisdictions, including Washington, D.C.
Don't wait for a default or a failed audit to discover a problem. Our system pings 50 states plus D.C. to detect "Title Issued" events, ownership changes, and new lien filings the moment they occur.
Every query is performed within strict Driver's Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) guidelines. We provide a defensible, detailed audit trail for every portfolio inquiry your compliance team needs.
Our proprietary automation layer normalizes messy state records into clear, actionable lienholder data — so you can verify collateral status instantly instead of deciphering inconsistent state formats.
Coverage Map
Plus proactive title-change monitoring that pings all 50 states + D.C. the moment a record changes.

Stop grading dealers by gut feel. Vinafi's Dealer Scorecard analyzes inventory turnover, audit accuracy, and payment history to rank every dealership A–F in real time — turning thousands of VIN records into clear, actionable financial intelligence.
Inventory Turnover
Flags dealers moving inventory faster than repayment can keep up.
Audit Accuracy
Rewards clean, discrepancy-free audit histories.
Payment History
Weights on-time payoff and curtailment behavior heavily.
