WILKES-BARRE, Penn. – GWC Warranty, a provider of vehicle service contracts sold through independent dealers, is pleased to announce a newly launched integration with DealerCenter, a cloud-based dealer management system designed specifically for used car dealerships. Beginning in January 2020, DealerCenter's users will have one-click access to GWC’s F&I products within their existing sales workflow, eliminating the hassle of navigating separate systems for rates and approvals. 

"At GWC, our goal is to help dealers drive results from their used car operation."

“As one of the top-rated dealer management system platforms, DealerCenter’s mission is to provide outstanding service and functionality to our customers,” said Barry R. Lane, vice president of business development with DealerCenter. “Partnering with GWC, one of the top vehicle service providers in the nation, allows us another opportunity to do just that.”

Since 2002, DealerCenter has been committed to improving a dealer's ability to manage their business, control costs and maximize profits with industry-leading technology solutions designed to improve the car-buying process. This strategic partnership allows independent dealers to streamline the customer experience, delivering a more efficient and transparent way to write service contracts by processing loan originations and back-end products all in one place. 

"At GWC, our goal is to help dealers drive results from their used car operation.  Integrating with DealerCenter means our dealers can make faster decisions and close more deals in less time," said Wendy Pratt, area vice president of strategic alliances with GWC. "This partnership is another milestone in our mission to deliver a best-in-class experience. The level of efficiency that this integration brings to the purchase process means our dealers can offer their customers the right F&I products upfront and push transactions through more quickly, cutting down on vehicle delivery time. Everybody wins."
