How Does the TNFR Mobile App Work With Optimus?
The New Flat Rate works with OPTIMUS by making it easier for your technicians to offer and manage financing options for your customers on the go. In a world of instant gratification, it’s a game changer when you can instantaneously provide the fix that helps your customer get their home fixed.
Here’s how it works:

- Techs presenting options: After the integration, your technicians can show customers a menu with financing options and monthly payments directly on the TNFR mobile app.
- Customer applications: Customers can apply for financing right from the app.
- Approval status: Your technicians can see whether the customer’s loan application was approved or denied in the TNFR invoice.
- Additional financing opportunities: If a customer is approved for more money than the cost of the service, your technicians can discuss with them about addressing other issues or upgrading their service choice.
