A nationwide leader in auto finance

As you can see in our About Us section, we are part of a nationwide network of Web sites, auto dealers and lenders. Our umbrella of companies has processed more than 3.7 million auto loan applications over the last 20 years. We are in good standing with the Better Business Bureau, and we protect all your confidential financial information with state-of-the-art computer security.

A simple, straightforward process

Once you click to apply, your secure, encrypted loan application is processed, screened and verified at our home office. It is then routed to a local loan officer in a dealership near you.

We work exclusively licensed, franchised auto dealers because that's how 80 percent of all the cars sold in America are financed, and that's where banks, credit unions and other lenders are most comfortable in working. Our dealers are electronically linked to more than 400 lenders, which gives them the ability to slot you to the best loan rate your credit score will allow.

Okay, then what?

You will be asked to make a personal appointment because that's the best way we can protect against identify crimes, and at that appointment you'll learn about loan rates and terms and available vehicles. And here's the best part. If you like what you hear, you drive away; if you don't, you walk away. There's absolutely no obligation and no fee to you for our services.

Sounds simple enough

So thanks for stopping by. Be sure to read our minimum credit requirements page before you click to apply. We also invite you to read about our poor credit history programs or to start researching the best cars for bad credit:
Under $4,000 • $4,000 to $6,000 • $6,000 to $8,000
$8,000 to $10,000 • $10,000 to $12,000
