Acorn Kia Crewe named Dealership of the Month
We’re excited to announce the Dealership of the Month for February is Acorn Kia Crewe.
The Crewe-based site had a fantastic start to the year and has continued its upward trajectory into February.
One of the longer-standing Bumper partners, Acorn Motor Group adopted PayLater into their aftersales departments back in 2017 and have now gone live with PayNow, processing customers’ one-off payments in just a few taps, and Pay By Bank, an instant account-to-account payment method.
The team also make use of Bumper integrations through popular automotive systems Keyloop and CitNOW, creating a seamless customer experience for drivers.
Their world-class customer experience has impacted their Trustpilot reviews, of which there are plenty!
One customer said, “Seamless, straightforward process, very well explained by Matt. Nothing was too much trouble.” Another stated, “Jay did an amazing check on my car for [my] MOT... great detail on the inspection video”.
Others described Kia Crewe as, “Very helpful”, “Quick”, and “First class”.
Bumper’s Chris Booth (Business Development Team Lead – North) and Islay Horton (Business Development Consultant) visited the site to hand over the award.

Islay said, “Congratulations to Acorn Kia Crewe on their win. They’ve had an outstanding start to 2024 with Bumper, really embedding PayLater into their aftersales process.
“Having recently taken over the site, it’s been a pleasure to meet with the team here in Crewe today and I’m looking forward to seeing how we can utilise PayLater even further to create an incredible aftersales experience.”
Congratulations to Amy, Rebecca, Chloe, Matt and the whole team at Acorn Kia Crewe.
