Xtime, CenPOS Offer Streamlined Service Checkout
Xtime announced the integration of CenPOS’s payment solution with Xtime’s Spectrum platform, offering a new payment option to dealership service customers.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — Dealers using Xtime can now leverage the payment processing capabilities of CenPOS (div. Elavon) to customers creating an enhanced vehicle ownership experience through quicker online and in-lane payment options, the companies announced.
Executives said the CenPOS payment solution has been integrated into Xtime’s Spectrum platform, making it easier to capture and report customer payments efficiently, either in the service lane from a tablet device or any service department workstation.
