Mercedes-Benz Financial Services Australia has expanded its digital footprint with a new iPhone and iPad app.
All iPhone and iPad users can now locate the nearest Mercedes-Benz dealer, contact a customer service representative, determine a monthly payment amount on a vehicle of their choice, and see current promotions from Mercedes-Benz Financial.
“Designed to help customers in their purchasing processes, the app is a natural extension of our digital presence and a great step into the world of mobile technology,” says Steven Goodale, managing director and CEO of Mercedes-Benz Financial Services Australia. “The iPhone and iPad app brings our vehicles to the palm of the user.”
Mercedes-Benz is currently finalising an Android version of the app which will be soon available for download on the Google Play app store.
The key functions of the app are:
* Estimator – this feature allows the user to specify their own details (such as selection of vehicle, financial product, length of contract, etc…) and determine the monthly payment amount for the Mercedes-Benz product of their choice.
* Get quote – after determining the monthly payment value, the user can request a detailed vehicle quote from a local dealer by providing a few contact details and sending an email request for quotation.
* Promotions – this feature allows users to see what active promotions are available on Mercedes-Benz products.
* Dealer locator – allows customers to view available dealers in their area, searching by GPS or ‘current location’ or city. Once the results are displayed, the user can call or map the dealer location using the iPhone/iPad’s internal mapping client.
* Contact us – important contact information for MBFS is displayed in this section, allowing users with additional questions to reach out to us directly.
The app is compatible with devices running iOS 5.0 or later, including the new iPhone 5, and is a free download on the Apple app store.
