LAS VEGAS — Finance Express announced during the National Alliance of Buy-Here, Pay-Here Dealers conference that it is launching an iPhone and Android mobile app.

When Ken Shilson, NABD founder, had the exhibitors line up for Dealer Academy attendees to introduce themselves and their companies, the Finance Express representative jumped on the chance to announce the new offering.

This will be one of the first mobile apps to be fully integrated into any dealer management system.

The new mobile app can give dealers the ability to scan a VIN right at the auction, evaluate the car, review vehicle history reports, create auction run lists and most uniquely, add the vehicle to their inventory before they even get back to the dealership, officials highlighted.

Finance Express is presenting the new mobile app during the NABD conference this week at the Venetian in Las Vegas. The mobile app will be available for download in early June from the phones' app stores.

"We are very excited about the launch of our FEX mobile app. Being mobile is definitely where technology is headed, and we are proud to be the first mobile app that is fully integrated with the FEX Dealer Management System." said Jeff McCurry, vice president of product development for Finance Express.

He went on to point out, "Integration is always a top priority, and we feel the addition of this app will bring useful tools to our dealers and allow them a real-time connection to their dealership."

Dave Huber, president of Finance Express, added, "The focus of our development team is always to bring smart solutions to our marketplace. We think that dealers will be very happy with the new FEX mobile app. We realize there are many time consuming functions that a dealer must perform and often these tasks take the dealer off-site. 

"We know we can't give the dealer more hours in the day but what we can provide them efficiencies to make their day-to-day tasks easier and less time consuming. This new mobile app does exactly that," he concluded.
