Glovebox

The customer side of the ownership journey.

Glovebox is where customers book, share vehicle information, follow service activity, see evidence, authorise work, pay and manage ownership — one connected digital experience, built on the exsto platform.

The ownership journey

One place for the customer, from first booking to the next visit.

J. Carter doesn't move between unrelated websites and tools. Each moment happens in Glovebox, while the right part of exsto handles it behind the scenes.

Book and prepare

The visit starts digitally — and the information follows.

Glovebox is the customer experience. exsto.Service is the operational workflow. What the customer shares when they book and check in is there for the service team.

Booking, vehicle, work and concern are available to the service team for the visit — not re-keyed from a separate system.

Understand and authorise

Evidence the customer can understand. A decision they can make.

The technician records the VHC and VIDEO1st in exsto.Service. Glovebox presents that evidence to the customer, and their response goes straight back into the job.

Pay and manage

Payment and plans, without leaving the experience.

Glovebox connects into exsto.Commerce. The customer pays through exstoPay — by Pay by Link or Open Banking — and the transaction is recorded. Afterwards, the same customer can see and manage their plan.

Ownership record

Useful between visits, not only during them.

Vehicle information, service and MOT history, documents, plans and recalls stay with the customer — one record of their vehicle that keeps growing with every interaction.

Ongoing interaction

The relationship continues beyond the transaction.

Surveys, enquiries and recall information reach the customer through Glovebox. exsto.CRM is where the retailer manages that engagement — two sides of the same relationship.

Connected platform

The customer-facing part of a connected platform — not a stand-alone portal.

Glovebox shares the same customer and vehicle record with the rest of exsto. Different moments draw on different parts of the platform.

Customer experience + operations

The customer's action becomes the retailer's activity.

Each digital action in Glovebox arrives as operational activity in exsto — without being re-keyed into a separate, disconnected system.
