GPS-SID fees | — |  |  | 1.9 |  |  | 6.4 |
Other | 1.2 |  |  | 1.1 |  |  | 0.8 |
Total | $ | 49.6 |  |  | $ | 68.6 |  |  | $ | 62.4 |
Ancillary product profit sharing consists of payments received from Third Party Providers (“TPPs”) based upon the performance of vehicle service contracts and Guaranteed Asset Protection (“GAP”) contracts, and is recognized as income over the life of the vehicle service contracts and GAP contracts. Remarketing fees consist of fees retained from the sale of repossessed vehicles by Vehicle Remarketing Services, Inc. (“VRS”), our wholly-owned subsidiary that is responsible for remarketing vehicles for Credit Acceptance. VRS coordinates vehicle repossessions with a nationwide network of repossession contractors, the redemption of the vehicles by the consumers, and the sale of the vehicles through a nationwide network of vehicle auctions. VRS recognizes income from the retained fees at the time of the sale and does not retain a fee if a repossessed vehicle is redeemed by the consumer prior to the sale. Dealer enrollment fees include fees from Dealers that enrolled in our Portfolio Program prior to August 5, 2019. Depending on the enrollment option selected by the Dealer, Dealers may have enrolled by paying us an upfront, one-time fee, or by agreeing to allow us to retain 50% of their accelerated Dealer Holdback payment(s) on the first 100 Consumer Loan assignments. For additional information regarding program enrollment, see Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. A portion of the $9,850 upfront, one-time fee is considered to be Dealer support products and services revenue. The remaining portion of the $9,850 fee is considered to be a Dealer enrollment fee, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the Dealer relationship. The 50% portion of the accelerated Dealer Holdback payment(s) on the first 100 Consumer Loan assignments is also considered to be a Dealer enrollment fee. We do not recognize any of this Dealer enrollment fee until the Dealer has met the eligibility requirements to receive an accelerated Dealer Holdback payment and the amount of the first payment, if any, has been calculated. Once an accelerated Dealer Holdback payment has been calculated, we defer the 50% portion that we keep and recognize it on a straight-line basis over the remaining estimated life of the Dealer relationship. Beginning August 5, 2019, Dealers may enroll in our Portfolio Program without incurring an enrollment fee. Interest consists of income earned on cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and restricted securities available for sale. Interest income is generally recognized over time as it is earned. Interest income on restricted securities available for sale is recognized over the life of the underlying financial instruments using the interest method. Dealer support products and services consist of income earned from products and services provided to Dealers to assist with their operations, including sales and marketing, purchasing supplies and materials and acquiring vehicle inventory. Income is recognized in the period the product or service is provided. GPS-SID fees consist of fees we received from a TPP for providing Dealers in certain states the ability to purchase GPS Starter Interrupt Devices (“GPS-SID”). Through this program, Dealers could install GPS-SID on vehicles financed by us that can be activated if the consumer fails to make payments on their account, and can result in the prompt repossession of the vehicle. Dealers purchased GPS-SID directly from the TPP and the TPP paid us a vendor fee for each device sold. GPS-SID fee income was recognized when the units were sold. Effective during the second quarter of 2019, we no longer provide Dealers the ability to purchase GPS-SID through this program. We allowed Dealers to install previously purchased GPS-SID on vehicles financed by us until September 1, 2019. The following table disaggregates our other income by major source of income and timing of the revenue recognition:
