Summary

This article explains which websites are populated by Catalyst FindIt, and what requirements are necessary to have your vehicles upload to the website.

More Information

For your Used Vehicles to appear on Visordown, Bennetts Classifieds, MotorcycleSuperMarket and Auto Trader websites, your vehicles will need at least the following information filled in :

• Manufacturer
• Description
• Engine Size
• Colour
• Reg. Date
• Mileage
• Price
• Used only

Your vehicles MUST have the Catalyst FindIt tick, and the tick for the third party website, enabled in the Web Publishing Tab on the vehicle record.

Adding Images to your vehicle stock not only lets the buyer see your vehicle at a glance but it will increase the likely chance of having someone contact you about the vehicle - would you buy without seeing the vehicle? Neither will your customers.
