Behind both, the InstaParts team sees every request in one place and keeps it moving.

How a request moves.

Every request gets its own reference that stays with it from the first message to delivery. Here are the steps on each side.

If you buy parts

1

You send a request

A photo of the licence disc and what you need, on or in the portal. You get a reference straight away.

2

We source it

Merlin reads the vehicle from the disc and asks the suppliers most likely to have the part, all at once.

3

You choose

The best options arrive as one quote, on and in the portal. Pick the items and part types you want, then approve.

4

Pay and track it

Your invoice follows straight away. Upload proof of payment, or a purchase order on account, and follow the order to delivery.

If you supply parts

1

A request arrives

Requests that match what you stock reach you on or in the supplier portal, with the vehicle already identified.

2

You quote

Offer OEM, used OEM or aftermarket options for each part, or decline in one tap if you cannot help.

3

You get the order

When a customer approves your option, you supply InstaParts and get paid by one trusted buyer. Active and past requests sit in one list.

Try it as a buyer: approve only what you need.

You rarely want every item on a quote. Tick the items you want, pick the part type that suits the job, and approve.
