Beep FAQ
What can we help you with?
For vehicle owners pressed for time and on the go; schedule auto repair and service instantly, without the hassle of phoning and clicking around.
Choose from trusted and qualified service providers near you. Book services on your schedule, at fixed guaranteed prices through Beep today. The price you book is the price you pay.
Your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number or serial number) is a unique, information-rich code that references almost everything a service provider listed on the Beep marketplace needs to know about your vehicle. By scanning the VIN barcode on your vehicle (normally located inside the driver-side door), BEEP helps service providers ensure they’ve got the parts and tools they need for the job before you arrive.
No. It’s as simple as scanning your credit card with your iPhone’s camera, and you only need to do it once per card. After that, booking and payment is instant. What could be easier?
Absolutely not. Book with confidence today. Each service provider on the Beep marketplace available for direct booking, is warranty approved.
If additional services are recommended (which any good provider should do when appropriate in the interest of safety and reliability), it’s your choice to accept those recommendations or not. If you do, you pay the service provider directly. You are free to decline, to get a second opinion, or to purchase additional parts or services wherever you like.
No. Credit card information is stored encrypted within the app, and cannot be accessed by us, the service provider or anyone else. It can’t be used for a BEEP transaction without your permission as long as you keep your iPhone properly locked and passcode protected. (In which case not even the FBI or Apple can get into it!)
