MeriCAR.com Partners With ValueFirst To Enable SMS For Car Servicing

MeriCAR.com, an online car servicing web portal, is now associated with ValueFirst for providing facilities to car owners to send enquiries using 'mobile messaging'. With MeriCAR.com, you can easily search for a dealer in your locality, register and send enquiries. MeriCAR.com will be using ValueFirst's application to then send SMSes to its customers. This ensures easy accessibility to car servicing solutions.

ValueFirst, a provider of enterprise mobile messaging services, proposed a solution based on API (Application Programming Interface). ValueFirst APIs would work with the MeriCAR application layer to send enquiries via SMS to car service dealers. Car dealers would be informed about car servicing enquiries through SMS and e-mail.

Mobile messaging for car servicing offered by MeriCAR will enable car owners to access dealers on the move with just an SMS.

"Mobile messaging would help car workshop dealers, who do not check e-mails regularly. It would be quick and easy for car owners to be in contact with car service dealers," says Rakesh K Sidana, CEO, Amoeba Webware.

"Large enterprises where the requirements are too complex and varied can incorporate the API function calls in their CRM/ ERP applications. This SMS gateway API will enable high performance of MeriCAR.com. This application is cost effective, using IP connectivity to reduce costs and dependence on any specific mobile network. It also enables high bandwidth connectivity and provides customers with high message security through the implementation of 128 bit algorithm based encryption for all traffic," said Vijay Shukla, co-founder and country head for India, ValueFirst.
