Warranty Solutions partners with Bumper on interest-free payment

Warranty Solutions Group (WSG) is to partner with interest-free car payment solution provider Bumper to support motorists managing repair costs and extended warranties, while offering dealerships profitable upsell opportunities.

The partnership enables customers to split repair and warranty costs into manageable, interest-free payments through Bumper’s PayLater platform. Over recent months, WSG has piloted the service for warranty renewals, with 76% of customers opting for the flexible payment option.

Now extended to a range of value-added products, dealers can offer up to 10 payments for extended warranties, paint protection packages, and more. This flexibility gives customers financial peace of mind and simplifies car ownership.

The collaboration integrates Bumper’s platform directly into WSG’s Dealer Dashboard. Customers can access the system effortlessly, undergo a quick soft credit check, and receive near-instant approval. Approved customers receive a tailored payment plan via email.

For dealers, this streamlined integration removes the need for double-entry, saving time and effort. Payments flow directly from Bumper to WSG, eliminating financial risks for dealerships, as Bumper assumes liability for any defaults.

Phil Miskelly, head of business development at WSG, said: “Bumper is a leader in providing tailored payment solutions for the automotive industry. Their seamless systems create a hassle-free experience for both dealers and customers. At WSG, our mission is to put motorists back in the driving seat. With Bumper, customers can split the cost of extended warranties into 10 interest-free payments, reducing financial strain while enhancing satisfaction and loyalty.”

Jack Allman, chief commercial officer at Bumper, added: “This partnership between WSG and Bumper redefines how dealers and motorists approach vehicle warranties and maintenance. It ensures affordability, convenience, and value for all parties involved. Dealerships with in-house workshops can also partner with us directly, gaining visibility through a featured listing on our website.”
