NHAA & Gather Partner to Bring Hispanic Auto Dealers Identity & Insurance Verification Solutions

The National Hispanic Automotive Alliance (NHAA) and Gather are pleased to unveil their new partnership. This collaboration will introduce Gather's identity and car insurance verification solutions to NHAA dealer members at a special introductory price.

The NHAA is an organization dedicated to supporting both Hispanic car buyers and the 20,000 independent automotive dealers who cater to the Hispanic market. Their goal is to ensure that Hispanic car buyers receive the experience they rightfully deserve when purchasing a new vehicle. This includes fair trading in terms of financing, language and cultural understanding.
 
Gather is an insurtech company that makes it easy for auto dealers to protect their dealership from fraud all while streamlining their proof of car insurance process. With the scan of a QR code, the car buyer is prompted to take a photo of their driver’s license, themselves, and their car insurance card. The automated process takes less than 90 seconds and when complete, the auto dealer achieves the following:

• Verifies the consumer’s identity
• Verifies the customer is not a fraud risk
• Verifies the customer has active insurance coverage
• Notifies the car insurance carrier of the policy update
• Provides the car insurance documents needed to deliver the vehicle

For automotive retailers, the benefits are clear. “Gather’s system gives dealers the technology needed to fast-track the administrative hurdles of retail auto sales,” said Pedro Hernandez, President of the NHAA. “What traditionally required auto dealers to take multiple manual steps to ensure the consumer is who they represent themselves to be and to secure active car insurance coverage can now be accomplished in real time. This is a monumental improvement in process and efficiency that’s especially beneficial for smaller auto dealerships that make up the majority of our member base.”

Additionally, through the Gather process, auto buyers can take delivery of their vehicle sooner. Without having to wait for the manual process of tracking down an insurance agent to update their existing insurance coverage, delivery can happen directly–allowing the customer to enjoy their new vehicle sooner than ever before.

"We believe in the transformative power of technology to streamline processes and enhance customer experiences," stated Jim Maxfield, CEO of Gather. "Our partnership with NHAA exemplifies this vision, making the car buying experience smoother, faster, and more secure for both dealers and customers in the Hispanic market. We're thrilled to introduce our innovative solutions at a special rate to the NHAA members and look forward to a fruitful collaboration."

The NHAA has negotiated special pricing for the Gather technology, to include a free trial for the first full month of service for those who sign up before December 31, 2023.
