New North Carolina LAW-553 (Oct 2023 Revision)

A notice from Reynolds & Reynolds was sent to KGI in August making us aware of a new LAW 553® Retail Installment Sale Contract that would be released in October.

According to the email these new contracts will reflect the new late fee increases from $15 to $18.

This NC Bill goes in to effect on October 1st, 2019.

Our notice also included these other changes and updates on the contract :

As a result of user requests and in an effort to continually update and increase acceptance of our LAW 553 contracts, we have made the following changes to our 553 contract in North Carolina:

  • Added Cell and Email fields to the Buyer and Co-Buyer boxes
