ATLANTA, Nov. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Purchasing Power recently added automotive care to the portfolio of products and services available through its employee purchase program. Offered as a voluntary benefit, Purchasing Power allows employees to purchase items through a disciplined payroll deduction option.
The new automotive offering gives customers the ability to purchase and have tires installed. Additionally, customers can buy automotive warranties available in three levels of service coverage, ranging from major component coverage to top-of-the-line coverage.
"Employees need to keep their cars running and safe, and all too often the cost of auto maintenance and new tires are a tough expense to cover when you are living paycheck- to-paycheck as many working Americans do," said Elizabeth Halkos, Chief Revenue Officer. "Being able to obtain these services through an employee purchase program, and pay it off over 6 or 12 months through payroll deduction without having to use alternative, more-expensive, financing options, is a real benefit for employees," she added.
The tire product line provides employees with the opportunity to obtain a set of two or four tires, including installation cost. After entering information about their car and their zip code, customers receive a list of tires available for purchase specific to their vehicle and a list of available installers in their area from which they can choose. Tires are shipped to the local installer that the customer has chosen.
Often referred to as an extended auto warranty, the new vehicle protection plans provide repair coverage after the manufacturer's warranty expires. When customers give the year, make and mileage of their car, they will be shown the different levels of coverage they qualify for:
To use the coverage, the customer works with their choice of state-licensed repair facilities and are responsible for their deductible.
"Purchasing Power is pleased to be able to offer yet another meaningful product to its employee purchase program portfolio of products that employers can offer in their benefits package. The program is being piloted with a number of companies now and will launch to all Purchasing Power clients in the next few months," Halkos concluded.
