Bumper and Keyloop integrate further with full payment types, automatic reconciliation

Bumper and Keyloop have advanced their partnership by launching a new phase of integration that now includes all payment types for automotive dealers, along with automatic payment reconciliation.

This enhanced integration incorporates Bumper's full suite of digital payment solutions.

Dealers can now offer a range of flexible payment options, including Pay by Link, which allows customers to pay via SMS or email; Pay by Bank, an open banking payment method; PayLater, which offers interest-free monthly payments; and PayPads, an all-in-one mobile terminal for point-of-sale transactions.

These expanded payment options are designed to improve customer satisfaction and retention.

A survey of Bumper users revealed that 90% would return to the same workshop because Bumper was offered as a payment option, and 89% reported feeling less stressed by the payment process.

The integration is specifically tailored for Keyloop’s Rev8 and Drive dealer management systems, providing seamless payment reconciliation across all areas of the business—from workshop advisors to back-office accounting. With payments automatically reconciled across systems, the need for platform-switching is eliminated, reducing the risk of errors and boosting efficiency.

Initially available in the UK, this new solution will soon be extended to Spain, Germany, and the Netherlands.

Jack Allman, co-founder and CCO of Bumper, commented: "This integration marks a major milestone in our mission to simplify and enhance the payment process for automotive retailers. We're excited to bring these advanced capabilities to Keyloop's network, driving greater efficiency and customer satisfaction."

Sebastien Fabri, partner director at Keyloop, added: “The new enhancement to the Bumper-Keyloop integration marks a significant step towards full digitalisation of payments and reconciliation in the automotive space.

“Consumers today demand flexible options at the checkout, and Bumper provides this, whether it’s Buy Now Pay Later, remote payments via link, open banking, or in-store on the PayPad. This integration is an essential tool for any customer-centric dealer.”
