CarWoo! Users Can Now Calculate Payments and Apply For Financing With Dealertrack's PaymentDriver and FinanceDriver
BURLINGAME, Calif. and ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- CarWoo! today announced that integration of Dealertrack's PaymentDriver and FinanceDriver tools into their online marketplace is complete. These tools are now generally available for dealers signed up for CarWoo!'s Dealer Plus program and who are Dealertrack partners. Consumers using CarWoo! can see monthly payments in addition to the total purchase price. They can also qualify for financing on a specific vehicle.
"After an extensive period of successful testing, we are pleased to make Dealertrack's PaymentDriver and FinanceDriver available to all of our qualifying Dealer Plus dealers," said Tommy McClung, CarWoo!'s CEO. "By continuing to extend CarWoo!'s online marketplace with more tools and services for deep funnel buyers, we enhance the ability of the dealership to conclude online transactions more efficiently and profitably."
Using a built-in payment calculator, PaymentDriver uses the consumer's self-declared credit score and trade-in value, along with dealer configured current rates, residuals and terms to deliver the range of payments they can expect. With FinanceDriver, the customer can be fully qualified based on a credit application that is filled out online.
"We are delighted that our FinanceDriver and PaymentDriver tools are now generally available to qualified dealers in the CarWoo! MarketPlace," said Amit Maheshwari, General Manager, Digital Retailing Solutions, Dealertrack. "Our digital retailing solutions and tools help streamline the online buying process for consumers while integrating closely with dealers' in-store practices.
