How to Close a DealNow Deal as a Seller

Once you have a DealNow deal set up with a buyer, you will do the following steps to close the deal as a seller:

1. You will confirm the following in step 2 of the deal:

   - the purchase price

   - the license plate

   - the state the vehicle is registered in

   - the odometer reading

   - who will be paying the closing fee

Once you have confirmed all of the steps above, you will click the "Yes, mark as confirmed" button. You (the seller) and the buyer both must confirm this info in order to move on to the next step.

2. If you are paying the closing fee, you will then need to click the "Add credit card" button to add your card. Note: you will only be charged the closing fee once the deal is complete and the buyer has transferred funds to your DealNow Pay account.

3. In step 3 you will confirm all of the information regarding the title of the vehicle. You will complete the ownership status, where the title is, upload a front and back image of the title, and add how you will transfer the title to the buyer. The buyer will need to confirm these steps within their account as well to move on to the next step.

4. In step 4, you have the option to purchase additional services to help with your car transaction. If you do not wish to take advantage of these additional services you will click the "No thanks, I don't need any services" button to move on to the next step.

5. After both you and the buyer have confirmed the deal information, title information, and reviewed the available service upgrades, you will review and sign the bill of sale as well as the title acknowledgment. Click the "Review and Sign" to pull up the bill of sale. The DealNow provided bill of sale can be e-signed from your phone or desktop. Most states will accept the DealNow provided bill of sale but be sure to check if your state will accept it.

Once you have reviewed the bill of sale, you will click "Sign Document":

From there, you will e-sign the document:

Then you will complete the title acknowledgment which acknowledges that you as the seller will need to sign and hand over the title to the buyer once the deal has been done.

Once you and the buyer have e-signed the bill of sale and completed the title acknowledgement, the buyer will then transfer the funds instantly to your DealNow Pay account:

When the buyer has transferred the funds, your DealNow Pay balance will be updated and you can then transfer the funds from your DealNow Pay account to your primary bank account. Click here to learn how to withdraw money from your account.
