What is the cost?
All these features are included in your booth price. For even more visibility, you can upgrade your package. Just ask your account executive for details.

Setup is quick and easy. Our onboarding wizard offers three options: Shopify integration, CSV upload, or assistance from our onboarding team.
What if I only want to list my products, not sell through the directory?
Selling is optional. You can list your products without enabling checkout, all managed directly in your dashboard.
What kind of buyers will see my products?
The online directory launches a few months before the 2026 show, giving dealership leaders access to your profile and products.
What is the sign-up process like?
Once your booth contract is complete, you’ll receive an email with onboarding instructions. Add your company details and products, save as you go, and launch your profile when you’re ready.
What type of data will be available in the mobile app?
Your profile will include your company description, images, booth number, products, categories, specials, brand values, and more.
Do I need to buy a device for lead capture?
