eAutoclaims Offers line of Credit Benefit to Their Network of Independent Body Shops

SANFORD, Fla., and PALM HARBOR, Fla. -- eAutoclaims, through its exclusive agreement with Parts.com, will now guarantee a line of credit to qualified network body shops that order online through Parts.com. The guarantee will be available on all eAutoclaims repair jobs. eAutoclaims has contracted over 2,700 network body shops that will be able to utilize Parts.com's 1,300 nationwide dealers network to procure OEM collision, mechanical, and accessory parts with localized delivery. Parts.com works exclusively through eAutoclaims to bring value to the insurance claims industry.

Eric Seidel, President and CEO of eAutoclaims, commented, "eAutoclaims is committed to offer meaningful benefits to our independent network of body shops. This program will help them maintain a competitive edge in a market of consolidation. With EACC handling the repair process and payment, we are able to guarantee this line of credit from Parts.com. Our shops will also enjoy a discount on OEM parts as part of this eAutoclaims Member Benefits Program. In most cases, these discounts will go beyond their current wholesale pricing and provide for local delivery."

The new program is expected to begin rollout in the state of California and will start in the coming weeks. EACC plans to roll the program out nationwide to all network member shops by the end of the year.
