Payment Search goes LIVE

Payment Search finally went live today on the Yeomans website, provided by GForces

This is a big day for Codeweavers as the technical challenge has been significant.

So what makes Payment search so different?

1. “Real time” results

Each time “Search” is clicked, we calculate using up to the minute stock information. As Yeomans update their stock throughout the day, the results are near instantly reflected on Payment Search. So if a cash price of a vehicle is changed, they can be sure, that the payments displayed reflect this.

2. It’s fast

It really is fast. On Yeomans we can calculate 1200+ HP & PCP quotes on 600+ vehicles in around 0.5 of a second. Not bad when you think about what the service has to do for each one of those 600 vehicles.

  • Look up the dealer’s rates and terms
  • Look-up and extrapolate the correct residual value for the age/mileage/lender combination
  • Calculate the payments, and the rest of the figures required for compliant quotes
  • Check the dealer’s required sell-out rate for the vehicle (each one can be different)
  • Produce an APR for each quote
  • Calculate the Representative Example information
  • Validate product parameters such as deposit, term and commission caps
  • Validate the vehicle’s eligibility for the each finance product in terms of age and mileage
  • Order the results and send back the correct page of results
  • Store the quotes for reporting and to facilitate “Email-me this Quotation

3. It’s simple to implement

In order to get Payment Search all is needed is a link or form to be added to the main web site.
A little bit of branding and Bob’s your Uncle.

4. It’s FREE to our existing customers

Well that’s it, LIVE ready to go.  If you are an existing Codeweavers customer contact us to discuss getting Payment Search on your site.  If you are not a Codeweavers customer today don’t worry! Payment Search can be yours for less than you would think.

Happy searching…

New Feature: Tailor customer fields in ‘E-Mail me this Quotation’

by

We have released a new feature in our ‘E-Mail me this Quotation’ functionality.

Previously, the only information captured from a customer prior to e-mailing them their quotation was their e-mail address. We received feedback from our dealers asking if it was possible to add other fields if required, such as customer name or telephone number. Some of our dealers wanted the opportunity to capture more information at this stage of the sale.

We are pleased to announce that we have listened to this feedback and have introduced the ability for a dealer to request this additional information.

It’s simple to enable this change - your web development company can now create a custom “email me” enquiry form to capture any data you require, this information will automatically be passed onto you in your email notification from Codeweavers.

We do suggest keeping your enquiry forms as short as possible though, to encourage as much customer interaction as possible!

To find out more, just contact us at supportteam@codeweavers.net or on 0800 021 0888.

New Feature: Stock import into Payment Search

by

Codeweavers have made it even easier for our standalone ‘payment search‘ clients to supply us with vehicle stock information.

It is now possible for your web partner to import vehicle data directly into the payment search tool. This can easily be done using the same stock feed that your web partner would send on, your behalf, to Auto Trader or other such websites. A nightly submission of your stock is recommended, to ensure new stock is added to the payment search functionality as soon as possible.
