See how DealNow works

Know the car, know the seller and know your exit, before the seller is paid.

How it works

Three steps, two platforms.

Turn handles the appraisal and the offer. DealNow handles the purchase.

  1. 01Turn

    Your customer appraises the vehicle

    Send an Off-Site Appraisal™ from your Turn dashboard. Turn texts your customer a secure link, and they complete a guided appraisal from their driveway on their own time.

    Turn makes a guaranteed offer

    TurnVision AI™ guides damage detection during the appraisal, and Turn gives your store a guaranteed offer, valid for 4 days.

Retail it

Keep the car for your lot. You bought it direct from the customer, at a price you set.

Wholesale it

Accept Turn's guaranteed offer instead. It's there for 4 days, so the decision is yours.

Why it matters

More cars from your own customers, with a way out on every one.

Lock in the car before competitors

Your customer appraises from home and gets an answer from your store, so the trade or purchase stays with you instead of going out for other bids.

A guaranteed exit on every car

Turn's offer is guaranteed for 4 days, so every car you buy through DealNow can be retailed or wholesaled. You're never stuck with it.

Buy beyond your market

Appraisal happens in the driveway and the purchase closes remotely, so distance and store hours stop deciding which cars you can buy.

Questions

What dealers ask about Turn and DealNow.

What is the DealNow and Turn Automotive partnership?

Turn and DealNow cover the two halves of buying a car from a consumer. Turn handles the appraisal and gives your store a guaranteed offer. DealNow handles the purchase: verifying the customer, the title and payoff, signatures and funding.

What does my customer have to do?

Tap the secure link Turn texts to their phone and complete a guided appraisal from their driveway, on their own time. TurnVision AI™ assists with damage detection throughout.

How long is Turn's offer good for?

Turn's offer is guaranteed for 4 days, which gives you time to close the purchase in DealNow and decide whether to retail or wholesale the car.

Do I have to sell the car to Turn?

No. Once you've bought the car through DealNow, you can keep it for your retail lot, or accept Turn's offer if you'd rather wholesale it.

Do I need accounts with both?

Yes. Off-Site Appraisal™ is sent from your Turn dashboard, and the purchase runs in your DealNow account.

Where is it available?

Turn operates nationwide, including Alaska and Hawaii, and every step of a DealNow purchase happens remotely, so the car doesn't need to come to your lot.

How is it billed?

Each platform bills separately. See our pricing page for DealNow, and ask Turn for its current fees.
