The industry’s growth also comes amidst changing consumer behaviour, as more customers switch to newer buying models, like[subscription services](https://www.pwc.co.uk/press-room/press-releases/research-commentary/2024/car-subscription-poised-to-increase-as-research-shows-strong-con.html). In fact, the way people are looking to buy their next car is also changing. More than 50% of the customers would consider buying their next car online, and [86% would think of taking a hybrid approach](https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/business-retail-and-finance/car-buying-2025-5-key-stats-sales-success). When customers walk into a dealership or begin a buying journey online, they expect an experience that’s seamless, secure, and satisfying right through to the final click or signature.   Yet, the ‘last mile’ of automotive transactions continues to be a friction point. ### The key challenges faced by automotive businesses in completing a transaction are: 1. [Customer onboarding](https://oneid.uk/onboarding) delays 2. Inefficient identity and payment verification processes 3. Friction in the [agreement signing](https://oneid.uk/esigning) process 4. A growing risk of fraud, especially in online or remote scenarios These aren’t just operational bottlenecks; they’re brand risks. They lead to abandoned purchases, frustrated customers, and in worst-case scenarios, financial and reputational damage. ## **Bringing Scandinavian seamlessness to the UK automotive sector** Having pioneered the use of eSign and digital identity in Nordics, a market where bank-verified identity is the standard, Scrive is now helping UK businesses replicate this successful model and is already helping major automotive finance businesses with financing agreements in the UK. *![Catch the Red Flag - Blog Banners Thin (5)](https://oneid.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Catch%20the%20Red%20Flag%20-%20Blog%20Banners%20Thin%20(5).png?width=945&height=236&name=Catch%20the%20Red%20Flag%20-%20Blog%20Banners%20Thin%20(5).png)* Scrive’s platform is widely used across Europe to simplify agreements while embedding high-trust identity verification as part of the workflow. In recent years, Scrive has been bringing this same trusted, digital model to UK dealerships, with an average of 120,000 to 150,000 signed documents per month in the UK. By partnering with OneID®, Scrive takes an important step towards creating seamless, trusted, and secure processes and protecting everyone involved. ## **Verified identity, stronger contracts, reduced fraud with OneID®** The Scrive-OneID® partnership gives automotive businesses the ability to: - Instantly verify a buyer or lessee’s identity using bank-verified data - [Sign agreements](https://oneid.uk/esigning) digitally and securely with a verified identity embedded - Eliminate the risk of payment fraud, false identities, and impersonation - Strengthen legal evidence of who actually collected or leased the vehicle ## **![OneID and Scrive partner to streamline auto finance agreements. ](https://oneid.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Catch%20the%20Red%20Flag%20-%20Blog%20Banners%20Thin%20(6).png?width=1000&height=250&name=Catch%20the%20Red%20Flag%20-%20Blog%20Banners%20Thin%20(6).png)** ## **How OneID® and Scrive could have prevented £6.5 million worth of fraud** [The Times recently reported](https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/supercars-stolen-to-order-and-shipped-to-thailand-g3sz6376h) that criminals used fake identities and payment details to steal luxury cars worth £6.5 million from dealerships and financing companies. These fraudsters used forged driving licences and account information to obtain high-value vehicles. The incident underscores the increasing sophistication of identity fraud and the importance of robust, real-time identity verification. The Scrive and OneID® solution automatically populates the real identity and verified bank account details of the person present, ensuring that only the legitimate individual, with matching identity and account credentials, can complete the transaction. The process is completed in seconds, is entirely digital, and requires no app downloads or document uploads, making it both fraud-proof and friction-free.
