What is a car finance credit check?
A car finance credit check is used to see where you fall on the credit scale. even if you have a low credit score or good credit, our car finance check is really straightforward and removes any second-guessing with no credit report codes and fancy jargon. We take the information you give us to perform a soft search credit check, (this doesn’t harm your credit file in any way), and from that score, we show you how likely you are to be approved for car finance and at what rate based on customers who applied with a similar credit file to yours. Please note our car finance credit checker is designed as a guide only.
Unlike some other car finance companies, our free car finance checker is just that, a checker. We do not consider this an application and there is no obligation to proceed.

What is a soft search?
When you apply for any type of finance or credit, lenders will check your credit file to see what sort of credit position you’re in and how likely you are to be accepted by them. This is what’s known as a hard search, which can affect your credit score and potentially decrease it.

It also means that your result is only visible to you and us! When you make a soft search application with us, we are able to match you up with the most suitable lenders and make sure you get the best deal possible. Your credit score will only be visible to any third parties when your deal is being finalised. Find out more about our soft credit check car finance deals.
