Integration with Ituran

While most of innovation in the automotive industry today is sprouting from a redefinition of the “motor city” appealing to consumers seeking “national imports” and a progression towards plug-in vehicles, AutoStar and Ituran are creating real customer value through innovation and integration of risk reduction and inventory tracking tools for Buy Here, Pay Here dealers.

Trends such as a growing pool of credit-poor consumers coupled with an increase in used car sales and a reduction in dealer staff-time, revealed a need to reduce or manage risk more effectively and efficiently.

Integration with AccountMate

The success of AccountMate is built upon a very strong Reseller Channel and Vertical Solution Partners. These partners are a part of a very knowledgeable and dedicated group of AccountMate global resellers that work diligently to provide their clients with robust customizable accounting software and exceptional vertical add on solutions. Leading the BHPH industry is Vertical Solution Partner AutoStar Solutions, Inc., which specializes in business applications for automobile dealerships and finance companies. The functionality that the AccountMate software provides in conjunction with AutoStar is unrivaled in the auto industry. AccountMate and AutoStar have worked closely together to build real time integration between AutoStar Fusion and the AccountMate software. As a result, accounting entries flow electronically from Fusion to AccountMate’s general ledger module.

Integration with NetSpend

The NetSpend prepaid debit card is a perfect fit for the BHPH industry. Whenever cash, checks or money orders are used as the payment type, reloadable prepaid debit cards can make these payments safer and more convenient for both the customers and the BHPH dealer.

Prepaid debit cards provide your unbanked, underbanked, or unhappily banked cash-based customers with a more convenient way to manage their money, including making their car payments. Prepaid debit also allows for immediate access to funds, security and control; the customer can only spend what they load on the card and, therefore, avoid the temptation and risk of spending more than they have available.

Integration with AutoRaptor

Since partnering up, AutoRaptor CRM has created unique features to cater to the BHPH dealers.

AutoRaptor CRM partners with many businesses to help ensure our customers receive the most seamless lead management system. We are particularly excited about integrating with AutoStar because of our similar approaches to serving the automotive industry. Both of our companies are continually growing along with our clients, striving to be a vital part of their success. We also share a certain pride in our customer support and training services because they, quite frankly, stand out from the rest in this competitive marketplace.

Integrating with AutoStar has allowed AutoRaptor CRM to enter into a whole new pool of potential clients. Until our recent partnership with AutoStar, we did not have any features in place that would be particular to the Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) dealer. Since partnering up, AutoRaptor CRM has created some unique features to cater to the BHPH dealers, as a direct result of feedback from AutoStar dealers. In addition to features, AutoStar dealers will have access to their inventory and sales history in AutoRaptor CRM.

The AutoStar Integration Philosophy

Ben Newman

AutoStar is approached by many vendors, users, and prospective customers with ideas and proposals to integrate technologies and services. With all these suggestions, you might ask,

How do you qualify your integration partners?

Good Question.

AutoStar’s integration process starts with identifying a product, technology, or service that would benefit you, our customer. Many AutoStar employees are veterans of the BHPH industry contributing to our reputation of being a strong, professional technical organization. We also have a growing staff of implementation and training specialist that spend most of their days in the trenches with you. From this scholarly community, we identify many integration candidates. These candidates, with input from our executive team, business analysts, and President’s Advisory Council (PAC) members, are evaluated and ranked.
