Serving Qatar

Software for car dealers, service centres and parts sellers.

Vehicle stock online, service booking that reaches the workshop, and parts catalogues that find the right part for the car.

In short

We build dealer websites with live vehicle stock, service booking, parts e-commerce and workshop management tools for car dealers, used-car traders, service centres and parts distributors. Gulf first — Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Oman — in Arabic and English, connected to the dealer management system and accounting software you already use.

our approach

A practice, not a sales territory.

Automotive retail runs on stock that changes daily and data that lives in a dealer management system nobody wants to touch. A website showing a car that sold yesterday loses trust; a service booking that never reaches the workshop loses the customer. The work is mostly about getting stock, prices and bookings to flow between systems without someone re-typing them.

Parts are harder still. The same brake pad fits dozens of models across several years, and the customer knows their car, not the part number. A parts store has to search by make, model, year or VIN and show only parts that fit, or it fills up with returns and phone calls.

We have not built a dealer management system. What transfers is e-commerce — 18+ store builds, including inventory work for a Doha retailer whose stock had to stay true across physical shops and the website — plus a payment checkout in production for 4+ years and invoicing systems in Qatar. A parts catalogue is a large catalogue with a compatibility table; a vehicle listing is a high-value product with a deposit.

— problems we solve

Common engagements.

— 01

Vehicle stock on the website

Cars pulled from your DMS or stock sheet with photos, specs and price, updated when a car is reserved or sold. Search by make, model, year, budget and body type, and each car on its own page that search engines can index.

— 02

Online service booking

Customers pick a service, a branch and a slot that actually has a bay and a technician free, and the booking lands in the workshop system. Reminders and the car-is-ready message go out on WhatsApp.

— 03

Parts e-commerce with fitment

A parts store searchable by make, model, year or VIN, backed by a fitment table so a part is only shown for the cars it fits. Trade pricing for garages alongside retail prices for the public.

— 04

Workshop job cards

Job cards opened at reception, technician time and parts recorded against each job, estimates approved by the customer from a link, and the final invoice generated from the work actually done.

— 05

Reservations and deposits

A deposit paid online to hold a car or book a test drive, through a payment gateway available in your market, with the deposit matched to the sale in your accounts and the car taken off the website.

— 06

Lead handling

Enquiries from the website, classifieds, WhatsApp and showroom walk-ins in one list, assigned to a salesperson, with follow-up reminders and a record of which source actually sold cars.

— by market

What automotive businesses need in our markets.

Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman

Buyers research on a phone and then message on WhatsApp, so a listing without a WhatsApp button loses enquiries. Arabic and English listings are expected, and service centres compete with dealer workshops on convenience. Used-car margin VAT and Saudi e-invoicing both need to be right in the invoicing system from the start.

Spain, Italy, France

Independent garages and parts sellers compete with dealer networks, and EU rules require manufacturers to give independent repairers access to repair information. Parts stores need fitment data, catalogues in several languages, and invoicing through national systems such as SDI and VeriFactu.

Pakistan

Used cars and parts dominate, sold through classifieds, WhatsApp and parts markets. The need is a parts catalogue that works on a slow connection, cash on delivery and wallet payments, and stock that is honest about what is actually in the shop.

— when not to hire us

When not to hire us.

If your manufacturer requires a specific DMS or website platform, use theirs — franchise agreements often decide this, not you. If an established workshop or dealer system already fits, buy it and have us connect it. And we do not supply diagnostic equipment or telematics devices; we integrate with the data they produce.

— compliance

Built for regulated work.

Saudi ZATCA e-invoicing (FATOORA) for vehicle, parts and service invoices
UAE e-invoicing, as it is phased in for businesses
VAT profit-margin scheme for used vehicles where it applies (UAE, Saudi Arabia)
Consumer protection rules on displayed prices and warranty terms — Qatar Law No. 8 of 2008, UAE Federal Law No. 15 of 2020
Qatar PDPPL, Saudi PDPL, UAE PDPL and Oman PDPL for customer and vehicle data
Italy SDI and Spain VeriFactu for invoices issued in Europe
GDPR, treating vehicle and location data as personal data
PCI DSS scope kept small: card entry on the gateway's hosted fields, no card numbers stored

Tools we reach for first.

Frequently asked.

6 questions answered. Still have one? Reach out.

If it has an API or a scheduled export, yes. Many DMS products offer one; some share data only through the vendor, sometimes at extra cost. We find out what yours supports before scoping, and if it is export-only we design around that.
