Dealer Merchant Services (DMS), powered by Priority, will exhibit at the upcoming National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show in Las Vegas from February 3-6, 2026. At booth 6112N, the DMS team will meet with dealers and industry partners to share its perspective on the future of automotive commerce, including discussions around payment processing, cost recovery, and regulatory compliance.

Why it matters

As dealers face intense margin pressure, many are exploring surcharging as a way to manage rising payment costs. However, implementing surcharging in a way that protects the customer experience and complies with varying state regulations can be challenging. DMS aims to provide practical guidance on navigating these issues at the NADA Show.

The details

At the NADA Show, the DMS team will demonstrate its approach to compliant credit card surcharging and discuss how dealerships can recover processing costs while maintaining transparency and customer satisfaction. The booth will also highlight how DMS's integration with Priority's broader commerce platform supports dealership operations from point of sale through back-office processing, with improved visibility into cash flow and payment activity across the business.
