Applying for a dealer account
Who can apply, what the application asks for, and how review works.
A dealer account is for businesses that sell cars. It gives you a public showroom page, stock management, CSV import, a leads CRM and the features of your plan. You apply from your normal Cars61 account; there is no separate sign-up.
Open the application
Sign in, then choose Dealer application in the account menu, or Upgrade to a dealer account on My Cars61. You can also start from a plan on the Pricing page.
