Perhaps after their ability to maintain their monthly payments, the next most important characteristic independent and buy-here, pay-here dealers want to know about their customers is if they have valid car insurance.

On Tuesday, Modives announced a partnership to embed CheckMy Driver’s insurance verification and monitoring application into DealerCenter’s Dealer Management System (DMS), creating the opportunity for dealers nationwide using the platform to simplify their processes, save time, and create better customer experiences at delivery and for portfolio servicing.

With a focus on improving dealers’ ability to manage their business, control costs, and maximize profits, DealerCenter management said it saw a great fit in CheckMy Driver’s approach to making insurance verification and monitoring easy.

“We pride ourselves on being a dealer-driven platform, and we’ve heard loudly that this is what dealers want,” DealerCenter vice president of development Barry Lane said in a news release. “CheckMy Driver’s streamlined approach to not only verifying insurance, but also fixing problems when they arise, takes the burden off dealers. It’s exactly the kind of capability we love offering through our DMS.”

The CheckMy Driver platform can draw live coverage information directly from carriers and analyze data through its artificial intelligence-driven adequacy engine, delivering usable business insights, not more work.

Store managers and operators can now access CheckMy Driver directly through the DealerCenter DMS, sending verifications and populating the data right into current fields without the need for any manual entry.

Then dealer customers can log into their insurance carrier online to verify their coverage in seconds, proving with live information that their policy is active, accurate, and adequate.

Through regular monitoring, CheckMy Driver keeps an eye on those policies, working directly with policyholders to fix problems if they arise with embedded solutions to mitigate risk.

“This partnership with DealerCenter is such a natural fit because we’re both laser focused on the same thing — delivering best-in-class tools for dealers to simplify their processes,” Modives CEO Frederick Waite said.

“Helping dealers get rid of time-wasting actions like calling insurance carriers or the antiquated practice of ‘additional interest’ letters is why we’re here. Integrating technology into the process is such a no-brainer to fix what has traditionally been a broken system. CheckMy Driver and DealerCenter are here to help,” Waite went on to say.
