SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading used car ecommerce platform Shift (NASDAQ: SFT) has announced the launch of its second region in Texas. The company has brought its car-selling service to the San Antonio used car market. Consumers can now start selling select cars to Shift directly.

"We are thrilled to be in a position to double down our markets in Texas," commented Shift Co-CEO Toby Russell. "As with our other markets in California, Washington, and Oregon, each market brings its own unique opportunities, and we look forward to bringing our unparalleled service to the San Antonio area."

The service will be available to consumers within the greater San Antonio area. Those consumers can get online quotes for their cars through the shift.com website, generating an instant estimate. Those who wish to move forward with an evaluation can then book an appointment, and a Shift Concierge will come to their location to evaluate the car, and make a final offer. If they accept, they'll complete the entire transaction on the spot through an iPad, and receive payment digital within a few days. Appointments take approximately one hour.
