        the latest enhancements to its Recovery
        Link feature. Using the feature, buy-here,
        pay-here (BHPH) dealers can automati-
        cally send locator links on lapsed vehicles
        to recovery agents via text or email in one
        simple step.


        With a mobile-responsive interface and
        real-time insights on location and vehicle
        status, GoldStar’s Recovery Link mini-
        mizes financial risk for dealers by reduc-
        ing the probability of vehicle damage,
        impoundment and other avoidable fees,
        according to company officials.


        “One of the biggest hurdles BHPH dealers
        face in recovering assets is the number of
        manual steps required to communicate
        with recovery agents, increasing the time
        and money spent on recovery,” said Sunil
        Marolia, vice president of product man-
        agement at Spireon. “Our latest Recovery
        Link feature streamlines the process and
        automates communication with agents.
        As we all know, time is money, which is
        why GoldStar is designed to help our cus-
        tomers be as efficient and productive as
        they possibly can.”
