SAN DIEGO — Today, i3 Brands announced an integration deal that will have its PartProtection system, a point-of-sale platform that allows car dealers to offer service contracts on OEM parts, integrated into Snap-On Business Solution's electronic parts catalog.

The integration will allow for seamless look-up and immediate identification of extended warranty or service contract opportunities.
