Service Stamp

Most people don't realise there's a gap in vehicle checks. You can find out if a car's been written off or has finance on it - but the actual service history? That's patchy at best. We built Service Stamp from the ground up - brand identity, product design, and full platform development. It connects directly to the same manufacturer systems that franchised dealers use, pulling verified service records for 39 brands going back to 2012. The information was always there; we just made it accessible - and made it look good doing it.

Service Stamp helped me recover my car's full dealer service history when I'd lost the service book. The report added genuine value when selling and gave the buyer complete confidence in the car's maintenance history.
