Reviews Plugins:
Place one of our Reviews Plugins on your site and share your real customer reviews to show how great your shop is. This can be either a reviews header or can also include review text. Note: Reviews via the plugin are updated on a daily basis generally within 24 hours after they have been submitted.
Photo Estimate Plugins:
This plugin allows potential customers to submit requests for a repair cost estimate online. Customers can send damage photos to your shop from a mobile device. This can either be a button to submit the photo estimate request, or a hyperlink that leads to your Carwise™ page.
Appointment Plugins:
This plugin allows your customers to schedule appointments online directly from your website. This can be a simple button on your website, or a full feature widget embedded on your website.
Repair Status Plugins:
Keep your customers informed by providing them the ability to check their car's repair status. With this plugin your customers can check their repair status as well as view photos of their repair in progress. This can be just a link to an image, or can be interactive, allowing customers further detail after searching by their phone number.
Link to My Profile Plugins:
Place one of our Carwise™ logos on your site and link your customers to your Carwise.com profile page. This can be selected as just the icon, or the icon in addition to the Carwise™ logo.
