How it helps dealerships

Why dealers run their floor on CarTrust

From auction bid to handover, the trust signal that turns browsers into buyers — and protects the margin on every unit.

Win the trust conversation before it starts

Modern buyers research a car for hours before they walk onto your floor. A CarTrust report attached to every listing answers the questions they were about to ask in WhatsApp, on Instagram and in your DMs — so the conversation that does happen is about price, finance and pickup date, not provenance.

  • Verified-history badge on every photo, story and ad creative
  • Branded PDF emailed automatically when a lead requests info
  • Standardised one-pager your sales team can talk through in 60 seconds

Buyer conversations move from provenance to price

Stop buying lemons at auction

Every unit you bring in carries the cost of the next one you cannot sell. A pre-bid CarTrust check surfaces accident clusters, mileage rollbacks, theft flags and export irregularities before the hammer drops — turning auction risk from gut feel into a checklist your buyer can run on a phone.

  • Pre-bid VIN lookups from the auction floor or sales office
  • Bulk pre-screen a whole catalogue overnight via CSV
  • Internal-only notes per VIN so your buyers share intel between branches

Auction risk priced before the bid, not after the sale

Move stock faster on every channel

Verified listings get more enquiries, more saves and more test drives — across your own site, Jiji, Cheki, Facebook Marketplace and Instagram. CarTrust gives you a single source of truth you can plug into every channel without re-keying data or paying per platform.

  • Drop-in badge artwork and copy for every major marketplace
  • Webhook updates when a status changes (recall, theft, write-off)
  • Inventory sync via CSV, Google Sheets or REST API

Documented stock consistently outperforms undocumented stock

Close cleanly, retain the customer

Most dealer disputes are about something the buyer feels they were not told. Handing over a branded CarTrust report on delivery creates a paper trail, satisfies finance and insurance partners in one click, and turns a one-off sale into a documented relationship you can market back to.

  • Attach the report to finance and insurance binders automatically
  • CRM-ready exports so your follow-up sequences write themselves
  • Aftercare reminders triggered by manufacturer recall notices

Fewer post-sale disputes, more repeat buyers

"We attach a CarTrust report to every listing. Buyer enquiries shifted from "is this clean?" to "when can I collect it?" — the trust conversation is over before it starts."
