Dominion DMS and Gather Announce Integration to Enhance Auto Dealership Operations

BOCA RATON, Fla., May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominion DMS announces integration with Gather.

Dominion DMS, a leading provider of innovative solutions for franchised automotive dealers, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Gather, the auto industry's first and only identity and insurance verification and transfer solution. This collaboration integrates Gather's revolutionary technology with Dominion DMS's flagship product, VUE, a cloud-core dealer management system.

Gather's technology streamlines the identity and insurance verification process in the auto dealership, ensuring compliance with regulatory demands while minimizing fraud risks and eliminating the administrative burdens associated with insurance administration. With a consumer-friendly process that takes just 50 seconds, Gather goes to work to:

• Verify the consumer has active insurance coverage
• Verify the consumer's identity
• Verify the consumer is not a fraud risk
• Notify the auto insurance carrier of the policy update
• Provide the auto insurance documents needed to deliver the vehicle

Additionally, dealers interested in further expediting the delivery of the vehicle to the car-buying customer can take advantage of the Gather Guarantee™, which protects the dealer from loss should something happen to the vehicle for up to eight days from delivery or until the dealer receives payment on the finance contract; whichever occurs first.

"Gather is thrilled to collaborate with best-in-class technology providers, and Dominion DMS certainly meets these high standards. With our software natively integrated into Dominion DMS, dealers now have access to the industry's only car insurance and identity verification and transfer solution," said Ken Luna, Director of Partnerships at Gather. "We look forward to helping Dominion's auto dealer clients save time, reduce administrative burden, eliminate phone calls to insurance agents, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. The added bonus is that our solution helps prevent fraudsters from taking advantage of the dealer's showroom."

The integration of Gather's innovative technology with VUE by Dominion DMS represents a significant milestone in the automotive industry. Together, these solutions empower dealerships to enhance operational efficiency, streamline processes, and deliver an exceptional customer experience.

"Dominion DMS is delighted to integrate with Gather, as they fill a long-standing void in the dealer's administrative process while helping to deliver a better shopping experience for the customer." Arlene Clements, VP of Business Development, Dominion DMS.
