Integrated Payments
Following the shift to D2C vehicle sales model and the growing market for subscription-based services, OEMs need to offer payment methods to serve their customers. Seamlessly integrated payments across online store, infotainment and mobile app, ensure consistent customer experience.
Mobile Applications
Modern vehicles allow users to communicate and interact with them remotely. In order to do that, OEMs need to provide their clients with apps which improve the ownership experience by offering features like opening/closing the vehicle, controlling the AC, sending planned routes to infotainment or managing the charging schedule in case of EVs.
Subscription Based X
The ownership model is changing, moving away from owning vehicles and paying for features up front. Customers prefer to own products and use features when it’s convenient for them. So building solutions that enable the subscription-based ownership model is essential for OEMs.
Offer Management Configurators
Today’s vehicles are incredibly complex. There are hundreds of configuration options and features which differ between models, production year and markets. To efficently manage those, OEMs need modern solutions which also will be able to manage the configuration of after sales offers.
License Activation & Management
Many features on vehicles are now available as after sales purchases, be it adaptive headlights, heated steering wheel or hands-free driving. In order to activate these features in the vehicles, the OEMs need to build license avtivation & management systems.
Connected Store
Modern e-Commerce platforms need to be easy to navigate, fast and omnichannel. They also need to enable purchasing both physical products like floor carpets and on-demand services like enhanced navigation. To allow for that they need to be integrated with offer and license management systems and payment solutions.

Improving user experience by modernizing Connected Store
Connected Stores enable manufacturers to offer a wide range of options and features without physically modifying their vehicles. This provides greater flexibility to meet their customers’ evolving needs and preferences while also reducing the cost and time associated with physical upgrades.
Implementing integrated payments can further streamline purchasing physical products and on-demand services. Creating a contemporary e-commerce platform with a functional and user-friendly front-end is crucial to ensure the customer’s smooth and uninterrupted experience.
As a software development company specializing in the automotive industry, we offer a unique solution to enhance the user experience of vehicle owners by creating Connected Stores.
Integrating subscription-based offerings, payments, and interactive interfaces in the vehicle
Subscription-based everything within the automotive industry refers to the concept of offering software-based services and vehicle features on a subscription basis. This means that customers pay a recurring fee instead of purchasing a feature outright to access and use these features. For example, manufacturers can use a subscription-based model to offer connected car services, advanced safety features, and autonomous driving capabilities.
From a software point of view, this subscription-based model enables vehicle manufacturers to offer their customers a wider range of features and options while also providing a steady revenue stream. It also allows for more frequent and efficient software updates, enhancing the functionality and performance of existing features.
This can provide customers with a more cost-effective and flexible option rather than paying for services or features up-front. Moreover, the integration of payments across different channels ensures a consistent experience.
Configuring software features for different markets
By offering employees the ability to configure and manage software features based on market needs, manufacturers can provide a more customized and differentiated user experience for customers in different markets. Offer Management Configurators used for this purpose provide a user-friendly interface for configuring and managing a wide range of vehicle features and options.
Offer management configurators enable efficient management and configuration of vehicle software features, reducing errors and improving customer satisfaction. Manufacturers can tailor their product offerings to specific markets, increasing sales and customer satisfaction.
