Finance Express to Release iPhone and Android Mobile Apps
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA — Finance Express, a provider of Web-based financial services for independent dealerships, announced yesterday that it is introducing iPhone and Android mobile applications.
The company says these will be the first mobile apps to be fully integrated into any dealer management system. The mobile apps will give dealers the ability to scan VIN's right at the auction, evaluate the car, review vehicle history reports, create auction run lists and most uniquely add the vehicle to their inventory before they even get back to the dealership, reported F&I and Showroom.
"We are very excited about the launch of our FEX mobile app. Being mobile is definitely where technology is headed and we are proud to be the first mobile app that is fully integrated with the FEX Dealer Management System." says Jeff McCurry, vice president of product development for Finance Express. "Integration is always a top priority, and we feel the addition of this app will bring useful tools to our dealers and allow them a real-time connection to their dealership."
"We think that dealers will be very happy with the new FEX mobile app. We realize there are many time consuming functions that a dealer must perform and often these tasks take the dealer offsite. We know we can't give the dealer more hours in the day but what we can provide them efficiencies to make their day to day tasks easier and less time consuming. This new mobile app does exactly that,” says Dave Huber, president of Finance Express.
Finance Express will be presenting the new mobile app at the National Alliance of Buy Here Pay Here Dealers convention this week and the mobile app will be available for download in early June from the iPhone and Android Market app stores.
