Once an appraisal is finalized, retail jewelry customers receive a no obligation insurance quote directly from BriteCo that enables them to get their purchase covered in under five minutes.
“A recent Jewelers Going Digital survey report showed that jewelers are eager for solutions to help them manage the digital transformation of their businesses,” said Dustin Lemick, founder and CEO of BriteCo. “Our partnership with Lightspeed is a perfect example of two innovators joining forces to leverage cloud-based retail technology that jewelers and their customers can use to make their lives easier, more productive and more affordable.”
Lightspeed jewelry retailers can access the BriteCo appraisal system right from the Lightspeed dashboard. Utilizing a database of more than 200,000 price points, jewelers can complete appraisals in as little as five minutes, making their final value determination with software guidance.
“Our research shows that more than one of three jewelers are still using outdated manual paper or word document systems to perform appraisals,” noted Lemick. “To compete effectively and deliver superior customer service, retail jewelers want technology that is fast, easy and a clear benefit to their customers. Best of all, our appraisal system is free!”
