BMW Toronto Extends Their Kimoby Platform to Every Payment Type
BMW Toronto was already running their service department through Kimoby: campaigns, automated communications, videos and mobile payment requests sent by text. When they added a Kimoby Pay In-Person terminal, the last gap closed. Now every payment, whether a customer taps a link from their phone or hands over their card at the desk, flows through the same system and provides a single experience for the customer and for the team
Results
Two payment channels, one reconciliation
Digital and in-person payments now live in the same place meaning everything the service department collects, by text link or by card, closes out in one place.
A team already built on the platform
BMW Toronto had over 40 active Kimoby users before the terminal arrived. Adding in-person payments extended what the team already knew, rather than introducing something new to learn.
The same customer experience
Some customers settle by text link before they walk in the door. Others prefer to pay at the desk. BMW Toronto now handles both without a break in workflow, and the customer experience is consistent either way.

“We trusted Kimoby for everything else in the service lane. Extending that to in-person payments wasn't a complicated decision.”

The Challenge
BMW Toronto had built their service department around Kimoby. They used it for marketing campaigns, service automations, video to customer, and mobile payment requests sent by text. But when a customer chose to pay in person, that transaction went through a separate provider entirely. Digital and in-person payments reconciled in different systems, advisors stepped outside of Kimoby at checkout, and the experience at the end of the visit didn't match the connected journey that preceded it.
The Solution
One provider for every payment type
BMW Toronto added a Kimoby Pay In-Person terminal connected directly to their existing account. The wireless terminal sits at the advisor's desk, so customers never need to make a separate trip to a cashier. Because digital and in-person payments now run through the same platform, there is no separate login, no separate reconciliation, and no context switch when a customer decides to pay by card instead of by link. The checkout process stays inside Kimoby, and the previous terminal provider came off the vendor list.
A consistent close, every time
The customer experience was already shaped by Kimoby from the first automated message through the repair process. With in-person payments now part of that same system, BMW Toronto can bring that consistency all the way to checkout. Whether a customer taps a link from their couch or taps a card at the service desk, the experience holds. In a premium dealership environment, that continuity is part of the product.
“The experience at the end of the visit matters just as much as the experience at the beginning. With Kimoby handling in-person payments now, the whole journey feels like it belongs to the same system. ”
