Dealerscope Warranty Roundup Standing Out
In 2018

• Sean Stapleton, president CEO of Warrantech,
  recently spoke with Dealerscope magazine as part
  of a discussion on upcoming company initiatives.
  The following is an excerpt, providing a brief
  glimpse of what Warrantech has in store for 2018
  to help CE and appliance dealers increase their
  extended service plan offerings and give
  customers the most value for their money and a
  worry-free shopping experience. 
• Warrantech is offering its retail partners a new
  smartphone app/platform. Developed by AmTrust
  Innovation with collaboration from Warrantech, it
  allows consumers to automatically add their
  connected devices to a dynamically priced service
  plan.

Using the app, customers can purchase protection
on a number of connected devices including smart
TVs, tablets, connected thermostats, smart
speakers, hubs and network routers against power
surge, mechanical breakdown and accidental
damage. Customers also have access to live
on-demand technical support and in-person
installation services from a nationwide
network. For participating partners who want to
offer the program, we offer a white-label version
of the app and other revenue-sharing
opportunities. This new technology lets their
customers identify devices in real time, catalog
them and customize the protection level that they
desire.
