How to apply for a guarantor loan

Firstly, complete and e-signs our 5-minute application form. Once accepted, a link will be given to your guarantor, who will use it to complete and sign the guarantor section on the online application form.

What happens next?

Both the borrower and guarantor will also be required to fill in a simple, online form stating how much money they earn as well as monthly expenses made. It helps us to provide you with an affordable online loan that suits your financial needs.

24 hour loan transfers

After the above has been done, we will have a quick chat with both people to confirm the details and make sure they understand the terms and conditions of the guarantor loan. We always aim to pay out all loans within 24 hours of the guarantor being accepted.

What are the borrower requirements?

Our minimum requirements are that you must be a UK resident aged between 18 and 75. You should not be on an active bankruptcy, IVA or equivalent and you need to meet the affordability requirements for the loan amount you wish to apply for. Please note that a guarantor loan requires you to have a friend or family member who trusts you to be your guarantor.

Advantages of car finance with guarantor loans

If you are considering a guarantor loan rather than a traditional car financing, you might want to know what the advantages thereof would be.

  • No fees and no deposits on your car loan
  • CCJs and defaults are accepted
  • Fast loan transfers; you could receive your funds within 24 hours
  • Build your credit score steadily by making repayments on time
  • As with our personal loans, you can use your car loan for many purposes such as buying your car, your car insurance and your road tax, or any other extras like new tyres or a maintenance service.
