Integrations

Enter it once. It flows everywhere.

Hoist sits at the centre of your workshop and talks to the tools you already run on - so a job gets typed in one time, then the rego, the invoice and the payment all sort themselves out.

Vehicle data

Type the plate, the whole vehicle fills itself in

Hoist’s Carjam integration pulls live New Zealand vehicle records straight from the plate - make, model, year, VIN and WoF status - so nobody’s squinting at a rego label.

  • Instant lookups from official NZ vehicle data
  • No typos, no re-keying VINs by hand
  • Vehicle history attaches to the job in one tap

Push the invoice total straight to your Verifone EFTPOS terminal. When the payment clears, Hoist marks the invoice paid for you - no keying amounts, no mismatches.

  • Invoice total sent to the terminal in one tap
  • Paid status flows back automatically
  • Fewer keying errors at the counter
