Frequently Asked Questions
Have Questions? We’ve got Answers.
How does Carketa know my inventory?
Carketa pulls your inventory by integrating with your dealership’s Dealer Management System (DMS). This allows Carketa to sync data from your DMS, including information about each vehicle in your inventory such as make, model, year, mileage, and VIN. Carketa can also pull data related to vehicle history reports and vehicle pricing.
How can I start using Carketa?

Is Carketa a dealer management system?
No, Carketa sits on top of your dealer management system, helping you manage the work your current DMS does not. Carketa’s data and features may overlap with some DMS systems, but it is not meant to replace your DMS. Carketa integrates with over 30 dealer management systems.

You will not be charged for your Carketa account until your free trial expires. We collect a credit card upon signup, but will remind you about your free trial’s expiration before charging your card.
