Answers to common questions
From credit scores to interest rates, here are the answers to the questions we get asked every day.
No. Your initial pre-approval application uses a soft inquiry, which has no impact on your credit score. A hard inquiry is only run later — with your explicit consent — once you're matched with a lender.
There's no hard minimum. We work with Canadians across every credit range — including bruised credit, past collections, and limited credit history. The best way to find out is to apply; the form takes two minutes and costs you nothing.
Most applicants receive an initial response within one business day. Final approval and vehicle selection happens directly with the matched dealer — typically a few days to a week depending on the lender.
We serve drivers across Western Canada — Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan — with more communities coming soon.
Yes! Once your financing is approved and you've chosen your vehicle, we can arrange delivery straight to your door. We can even help set up your insurance before it arrives, so you're covered from the moment it pulls into your driveway.
No. We're a finance broker — we don't sell vehicles or hold inventory. We match you with dealer partners who can approve your financing profile. That means you step onto a lot already pre-approved, with real leverage.
Your next vehicle is closer than you think.
Apply from home, get matched with lenders, and have your new vehicle delivered to your door. It's that simple.
