COSTA MESA, Calif. and STAMFORD, Conn., Oct. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- CareCredit, a leading promotional financing solution for health, veterinary, and personal care, today announced it has signed a multi-year extension to its agreement with National Veterinary Associates (NVA), one of the largest owner and operators of veterinary hospitals in the United States. As part of the agreement, CareCredit, a Synchrony solution, will continue to serve as NVA's preferred customer financing partner, providing valuable payment options for pet parents throughout NVA's growing network of more than 700 hospitals.
"Our continued partnership with National Veterinary Associates demonstrates the power of CareCredit's unique customer financing solutions," said Jonathan Wainberg, SVP and GM CareCredit Pet. "We are excited to deepen our relationship with NVA by giving veterinarians the ability to offer comprehensive financial options and a seamless client experience."
The extended relationship with NVA is evidence of CareCredit's ongoing commitment to the rapidly growing pet and veterinary market, further delivering on its commitment to offer a Lifetime of Care for the pet and pet parent population. From planned visits to unexpected treatments to specialty care, CareCredit provides a continuum of payment options for pet owners to give their pets the care that is needed through every stage of life.
As the cost of pet and vet care increases, pet owners are seeking simple, flexible financial options for a lifetime of pet care. Overall pet spend is expected to reach $99 billion in 2020, with veterinary care projected to make up more than $30.2 billion, second only to pet food and treats (American Pet Products Association).
"Now more than ever, people are investing in their pets, and at CareCredit we truly understand that they are part of the family," said Wainberg. "We are making it easier than ever before for our clients to pay for their pet's care with digital contactless offerings designed to enhance both the application process and use of the CareCredit card. With digital tools like the QR code and mobile app, clients are given instant, seamless options to apply for, manage, and pay with their CareCredit card on their own."
