Can anyone recommend a REST / SOAP Web Service for VIN Numbers?

Question

I'm developing a website for a small used car dealership with a need for VIN decoding. Given as much, I'm looking for maybe 1,000 - 1,500 requests for VINs per year. Does anyone have experience with a price-efficient web service to deliver such data?

Answer 1

try ask at Vin-info.com - there is vin decoder and I've heard, that they are preparing API

Answer 2

A couple other options are available as well.

• http://www.vinlink.com/
• http://www.vinquery.com/
  • Detailed API with a number of different options.
• http://vinapi.skizmo.com/
  • This option is pretty inexpensive if you just need basic information.

Answer 3

DataOne Software (the company I work for) has a REST web service for decoding VINs. Our data covers model years 1981-present. For the volume you're talking about pricing would be very inexpensive, and we offer a free trial.
