Filling Dealerships Lots with Turn Automotive and Mobile VIN Scanning
Turn Automotive is a digital dealer-to-dealer marketplace that helps to eliminate dealership wholesale losses by providing rapid and guaranteed offers for vehicles. “Turn App” works to connect buyers and sellers throughout the United States for fast, efficient, and safe transactions on the go.
The Vision
Turn Automotive wanted to improve user experience by reducing the time it takes to list a vehicle within the Turn App. The pre-Anyline process required users to manually enter the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) during the registration process, a slow and strenuous process that is error-prone and could cause significant delays for sellers to get their vehicles listed.
In order to create a more seamless process for Turn Automotive users, they wanted to find and integrate a mobile data capture solution that would automatically collect the VIN number from the vehicle, removing the need for manual data entry.
The Anyline Solution
Turn Automotive, after researching the best solutions available, turned to Anyline to help with their need for a mobile VIN number scanner. Once integrated, users were finally able to simply scan their VIN number directly from the Turn App, instantly kickstarting the vehicle registration processes and removing the need to painstakingly enter the 17-character number by hand. Furthermore, thanks to the accuracy provided by Anyline’s VIN scanner, listing errors and user mistakes – and the customer service it demanded – has been significantly reduced.
To date, nearly 30,000 VIN numbers have been scanned using the Anyline VIN scanning solution, connecting thousands of sellers to buyers around the United States. This has helped vehicle dealerships fill their lots and reduce wholesale losses.
Turn Automotive Cofounder, Marc Steiner shared his thoughts on integrating with Anyline:
“Having the support from Anyline VIN Scanning has been an extremely valuable addition to our mobile application, enabling customers to list their vehicles in a fraction of the time. The speed and accuracy of the scanning itself continue to impress us and our users as we work with automotive dealerships across the country.”
Anyline CEO, Lukas Kinigadner, applauded Turn Automotive for being an innovation leader in the automotive market:
“Seeing our VIN Scanning Solution being used in the American market with such scale and effectiveness is a fantastic result. This is exactly what we intended to see when we brought the solution to the market. Having partners like Turn Automotive, who embrace innovation, has been great and we look forward to continued success in the coming years.”
