PayNearMe now enables more convenient ways for Emotive Software customers to pay at auto dealerships.
PayNearMe, a unified payment platform, has announced a new integration with Emotive Software, an AI-driven software provider for automotive finance, aiming to simplify payment processing for car dealers and lenders.
The collaboration embeds PayNearMe’s flexible payments platform into Emotive’s AI-powered Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, allowing users to manage payments directly within their existing workflows. The standout feature is PayNearMe’s Smart Link technology, which enables customers to make one-click payments without the need for passwords or app downloads. It will add payment automation and customer convenience to the Emotive platform, helping dealers improve on-time collections and reduce payment delays.
Automotive businesses often rely on fragmented systems to handle billing, payment collection, and customer engagement. By consolidating payment processing into a single interface, the integration reduces operational friction and enables dealers to offer customers a broader range of modern payment methods, including PayPal, Venmo, Cash App Pay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, cards, ACH, and cash at retail.
“Our goal is simple: enable dealers to get paid faster, at the lowest total cost of acceptance,” said Bruce Gaskill, Senior Director of Integration Partnerships at PayNearMe, adding that the integration will not just simplify payment processing for the auto finance providers but improve the whole end-to-end payment experience. Emotive CEO Allen Dobbins also noted that PayNearMe will give the firm’s clients a competitive edge “by enabling modern payment experiences within the Emotive platform.”
The integration expands PayNearMe’s presence from consumer lending, iGaming and online sports betting, property management, tolling and legal payments to the automotive finance industry, supporting its broader mission to streamline payments for both businesses and their customers.
