Ally Dash offers a variety of resources to help you retain customers, including lead lists that detail:
- When your lessee’s term will end
- How much your lessee may owe in remaining payments if they terminate early
- If your lessee’s vehicle has enough value to end their contract early without incurring an early end charge

Payoff quotes
There are three ways you can find the exact amount a lessee owes on their vehicle anytime throughout the term of their lease:
- Visit allyvehiclereturnmanager.com
- Scan the customer’s VIN with the Ally Vehicle Return Manager mobile app, which you can download from the app store on your device
- Log in to Ally Dash and select RouteOne
Return options
At any time during the lease, there are three ways you can proceed:
- Lessee return — after a third-party professional inspects the vehicle, Ally may offer it for sale through SmartAuction. It’ll remain on your lot until it’s sold and picked up by the purchaser, or until our transporter takes it away (if it’s unsold). To get vehicles off your lot sooner and expedite customer notifications, use our Ally Vehicle Return Manager application.
- Dealer purchase for inventory — quickly complete the process by initiating it through our Ally Vehicle Return Manager application.
- Dealer purchase for lessee — after you initiate this transaction through the Ally Vehicle Return Manager, we simply require the Dealer Confirmation of Vehicle Sale and the Bill of Sale as proof of resale to the lessee.
Our Ally Vehicle Return Manager self-service tool can help you enjoy a fast, simple process no matter which option you and your customer choose.
