Is your Dealership ESG Safe? Automotive, truck, RV and other dealers needed to rapidly transform in 2020 in response to the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic. Suddenly, cleanliness and contactless checkout became more critical than ever. Some dealers were well into advance servicing with technology, and those that lagged are still playing catch up. ESG Safe has the solutions needed to transform or update your dealership while also maximizing profits.

What is contactless checkout for service department? Communicate with the customer with their preferred means and empower them to choose their preferred checkout method.

  • Communicate via phone, text, email
  • Check out in-store, via text or from email
