Press Release
The AutoVerify team is excited to announce its new arrangement with Kijiji Canada and TD Auto Finance. Today, AutoVerify tools will be integrated into online vehicle listings on Kijiji as part of the Kijiji Lead Driver Bundle, helping provide car shoppers easy access to trade-in values and to potential loan pre-qualifications.
We are thrilled to work with Kijiji Canada and TD Auto Finance to provide convenient access to the information car buyers want most," said Keith Murray, CEO of AutoVerify. "Our tools empower dealers to connect with shoppers in near-real-time and provide potential personalized loan pre-qualifications from TD Auto Finance based on their credit quality and trade-in information. We believe this will revolutionize the way Canadians buy and sell cars online.
The enthusiasm is shared by Kijiji Canada. "We are always looking for ways to enhance our platform and provide the best possible experience for our users," said Leanne Kripp, Head of Autos at Kijiji Canada. "AutoVerify tools align with our goal of delivering value for our dealer partners, including high quality leads and sales growth. We are excited to see the positive impact this engagement will have on our dealer partners and the automotive industry as a whole."
According to recent studies, Canadian vehicle shoppers currently face uncertainty around trade-in value and affordability which impacts their level of comfort in the car buying process.
"This program will deliver the information consumers are looking for in a simple and convenient way, helping position dealers as key players in the car-buying journey. TD Auto Finance is very pleased to participate in this enhancement to the Canadian car-buying process,” said Gino Caputo, Senior Vice President and Head of TD Auto Finance.
By embedding AutoVerify solutions into Kijiji listings, dealers will be empowered to provide better customer service, improved efficiency, and a competitive edge in the marketplace. At the same time, consumers will be given access to information about their trade-in value and if they apply, their loan pre-qualification status, allowing them to navigate the car-buying process with greater confidence.
