Under AB 1215 (2011), all new car dealers must enroll. New and used car sales by these dealers must be processed through BPA unless the transaction isn’t allowed. Provider fees can be passed through to consumers. There are three types of Business Partners  First Line Business Partner - receives information from DMV and uses it for that partner’s business.  First Line Service Provider - receives information from DMV and transmits it to another for processing.  Second Line Business Partner - receives information from a first line provider and must be a registration service, vehicle dealer or leasing company, salvage pool, dismantler, or rental car company. First Line Business Partners and Service Providers are responsible for all fees due to DMV and pay via an Electronic Fund Transfer. Second Line Business Partners remit fees to the service provider.
