KAR Auction Services is responding to another request from its Canadian dealer customers who scour the salvage space.

On Thursday, Impact Auto Auctions and Automotive Finance Corp. (AFC) announced the launch of real-time, convenient, seamless financing and buying options for Impact Auto Auctions customers.

Impact Auto Auctions buyers can now view their available AFC credit in real time and floorplan their purchases upon checkout — allowing customers to buy and transport the same day, saving time and potential storage costs.

"Our Canadian customers have asked for more convenience, and we have answered their request with a fully integrated and streamlined purchasing process,” said Blair Earle, managing director for Impact Auto Auctions."

Providing customers with instant access to floorplan financing and giving them immediate snapshots of their available credit helps our customers make quicker buying decisions — generating additional buying opportunity and helping them successfully operate and grow their business.”

Impact Auto Auctions provides a marketplace for the sale and purchase of high-mileage, aged or damaged insurance, rental, fleet, lease, finance and manufacturer vehicles.

AFC financing is available to Impact Auto Auctions customers on their desktop, tablet or smartphone. Dealers can visit impactauto.ca for more information. 

Impact Auto Auctions website has updated look, new features

HOMEPAGE

Impact Auto Auctions has launched a revamped website featuring a new interface, an advanced search function and a streamlined registration process as well as two tools that are designed to make the bidding process easier for customers seeking salvage vehicles.

One of those tools, My Auction Center, is a personalized dashboard that enables registered customers to bid in real time, receive vehicle pick-up notifications, and view upcoming auctions and announcements on a single page. 

The other, Impact AuctionNow, builds on the company’s previous LiveBlock Hybrid Auction system to bring domestic and international buyers side-by-side with live bidders at IAA’s auctions.

Impact AuctionNow gives customers faster and easier access to Impact’s vehicle inventory. Buyers can now view and bid on multiple auction lanes or sales from one screen, track active bids across all auctions sites, pre-bid on a vehicle the moment it is posted until its auction date, and monitor upcoming buying opportunities via an automated Watch List.

 “We are delighted to launch our new online buyer portal, which not only simplifies the bidding process for our customers, but reinforces our commitment to investing in our diverse and growing buyer market,” said Terry Daniels, Impact’s managing director.

“Together these enhancements constitute one of our largest investments in our buyer base to-date and we are already getting great feedback from buyers.”
