Turn Mitchell 1 shops into stickier payment relationships.

Give automotive merchants a connected path from their existing Mitchell 1 automotive workflow to payment—without asking them to replace the software they already use. Add more value, differentiate your sales team, and keep more eligible payment activity inside the processing relationship you manage.

Keep the merchant workflow Use enabled gateway options Build a repeatable sales motion
Why this matters to an ISO

Sell more than rates to automotive merchants.

Mitchell 1 already sits inside the merchant’s daily workflow. PayLync gives your organization a payments value-add that can complement that environment instead of forcing a rip-and-replace conversation.

↗

Win more auto shops

Lead with a workflow conversation around repair orders, invoices, remote payment requests, and customer experience—not only pricing.

◎

Protect payment volume

Where the supported workflow fits, keep more eligible payment activity closer to the processing relationship you already manage.

◇

Differentiate your agents

Give sales teams a software story they can use with Mitchell 1 merchants and similar prospects.

$

Add software economics

Create a path to partner software revenue alongside your existing processing economics, subject to your PayLync agreement.

Partner architecture

Your merchant. Their software. Your payment relationship.

PayLync sits between the automotive workflow and the enabled payment setup, giving the merchant a clearer path to payment while helping the ISO stay relevant in the operating workflow.

Give your agents a better pitch

Turn the integration into a repeatable ISO sales motion.

Help agents uncover a workflow problem first, then position PayLync around the way the merchant already operates.

01 · DISCOVER

Start with the merchant workflow.

Identify whether the prospect uses Mitchell 1 and where payment collection creates friction—before vehicle pickup, over the phone, remotely, or during invoice follow-up.

Agent opener: “How are you collecting payment today when a Mitchell 1 repair order is ready—do your advisors have to jump between systems?”
02 · POSITION

Sell the connection, not another app.

Explain that PayLync is designed to complement the supported Mitchell 1 workflow and the merchant’s enabled payment setup.

Agent pitch: “You can keep Mitchell 1. PayLync adds the supported payment step around the workflow your team already uses.”
03 · PROVE

Demo one representative transaction.

Use an actual merchant scenario to show the payment request, customer experience, transaction result, exceptions, and staff follow-up.

Demo focus: “Repair order → payment request → customer pays → transaction result → staff follow-up.”
04 · EXPAND

Repeat across similar merchants.

Once the workflow is validated, turn it into a repeatable playbook for additional eligible Mitchell 1 merchants in your portfolio.

Portfolio motion: “Segment Mitchell 1 merchants → qualify workflow → demo → onboard → measure adoption.”
Merchant deployment

From qualified lead to live payment workflow.

Keep implementation disciplined so your sales promise matches the merchant’s supported configuration.

Confirm Mitchell 1 usage, the payment problem, users or locations, and the business records needed for the intended workflow.

Review the setup

Review the Mitchell 1 records, permissions, locations, and users needed for the supported payment workflow.

Configure & test

Connect the merchant account, enable the approved payment methods, and run a representative transaction from start to finish.

A payments value-add for ISOs serving Mitchell 1 shops

PayLync gives ISOs and payment partners another way to support merchants already using Mitchell 1. Instead of asking the merchant to change its core software, you can add a payment experience around supported repair orders, customers, vehicles, invoices, or service records.

For the merchant, that means a more connected path from the existing repair-order workflow to payment. For your ISO, it creates another reason to stay involved in the merchant's workflow and helps protect the processing relationship.

The exact records, permissions, payment methods, and any updates back to Mitchell 1 depend on the supported connector and the merchant configuration approved during onboarding.

Use a representative merchant workflow to validate the connection before launch, including the payment request, customer experience, transaction result, exceptions, and staff follow-up.
