Background:

In September 2013, TXDMV created a Web-Dealer program. Web-Dealer is an electronic title and registration system that processes title/registration applications from any internet-connected computer. Dealers will be able to process registration and title transactions electronically; they will no longer have to bring their transactions to the Tax office. The web-dealer program will create e-titles that lead to reducing title fraud. It will support electronic storage of all title information (e-titles), and read hard stops.

The agreement will provide the following benefits:

•Convenience (improve dealer and customer service)

•Helps TAC provide title and registration needs to the public.

•Fee’s paid thru ACH method, allows TAC confirmation of fees.

•Transactions are not lost.

•Dealer knows status of transaction.

•No manual handling of title transactions by TAC.

Fiscal Impact:None
