Synchrony, a financial services company, and Payzer, a WEX company that provides field service management software for residential contractors, have partnered to offer a comprehensive digital process designed to streamline sales and business transactions for contractors. This collaboration integrates Synchrony’s financing options directly into Payzer’s solution, making it easier for contractors to help customers fund their home improvement projects.
This collaboration offers advantages for contractors using Payzer’s field service management solution, made to streamline business operations, increase sales and help contractors collect payment quickly:
- All-in-one solution: Contractors can now manage key aspects of a sale, including financing, within a single platform.
- Enhanced sales process: The integration highlights financing opportunities during the estimation process, potentially increasing sales and customer satisfaction.
- Expanded network: The partnership leverages shared relationships with manufacturers and distributors, broadening the reach for both companies.
According to Synchrony’s most recent Major Purchase Study, 75 percent of the dealers surveyed reported that offering financing options from Synchrony increased their average sales. The report found that 45 percent of major purchase shoppers surveyed with a credit card issued by Synchrony tend to spend more than those paying with other tenders. By leveraging Payzer’s proposal comparison and integrated financing tools, adding Synchrony financing options becomes a seamless part of the process.
“By integrating our financing directly into Payzer’s solution, we’re not just simplifying processes; we’re enhancing the entire home improvement journey for both contractors and consumers,” said Curtis Howse, EVP and CEO of Synchrony Home and Auto. “This partnership represents a significant step in our strategy to be present at every crucial point of the sales cycle, ultimately delivering more value to our partners and their customers.”
The partnership between Synchrony and Payzer brings significant benefits to customers. Contractors can now access Synchrony’s financing options easily within Payzer’s platform, eliminating the need to switch between multiple systems. A full suite of 33 promotions is available to contractors, providing customers with flexible financing choices. The integration between Synchrony’s financing options and Payzer’s platform provides a smooth, digital application process, including pre-qualification and instant credit decisions.
“This collaboration with Synchrony aligns perfectly with our commitment to providing contractors with best-in-class tools and services,” said Dylan Jones, senior vice president and general manager, mobility growth, WEX. “By incorporating Synchrony’s financing options into our platforms, we’re giving our contractor network more choices and a competitive edge in the market.”
