Codeweavers, a product brand of Cox Automotive, has partnered with First Response Finance, one of the UK’s leading vehicle finance providers, to offer retailers a highly sought after finance option within its platform.  

In July, Codeweavers processed over 15 billion car finance calculations, highlighting strong consumer interest in vehicle purchasing solutions. To meet this demand, retailers need the ability to offer a variety of competitive lending options. Codeweavers’ new integration with First Response Finance is a key enhancement, giving customers access to an in-demand lender for their finance panels. 

The all-new API integration with First Response eliminates the need for double-keying individuals within a retailer’s customer management system. Instead, sales staff have one unified view of the customer, saving time and improving internal efficiencies.  

Joanne Cook, Sales Team Leader at First Response Finance, commented, “Codeweavers is a fantastic partner to work with, and we’re thrilled to be part of this integration. Their extensive network of retailers across the UK opens up exciting new opportunities for us to support more businesses with our tailored finance solutions. We look forward to seeing the positive impact this will have on both retailers and their customers.”  

Shannon Baker, Lead Partnership Manager at Codeweavers, said, “We pride ourselves on offering a solution to our customers that evolves alongside them, addressing new opportunities as they arise. Integration with First Response was highly requested by our customers and we wanted to make sure we met this demand as swiftly as possible. We’re excited to launch this integration today and support our customers in delivering a more competitive solution to consumers.”   

The Codeweavers Commerce platform creates a complete buying experience for retailers, connecting every step of the vehicle buying journey, including financing, while providing retailers a complete view of the consumer’s progression.  

This new functionality is available to integrate for all Codeweavers customers.
