Business Car Loan

FAQs on financing vehicles for business use.
How do business car loans work?

A business car loan provides you with a lump sum of money to buy a car for your business, with the cost being spread out over time. You'll own the vehicle from the get-go, but it serves as collateral for the loan. Once the loan is fully repaid, the car is fully yours, no strings attached.

What types of business vehicle loans can I access?

There are three main ways to finance business vehicles:
- Equipment loan: Your lender will provide you with funding to purchase a business vehicle (which you'll own from day one) and they’ll then use it as collateral in case you default on your loan.
- Hire-purchase agreement: Your lender will purchase a car on your behalf for you to borrow. They’ll own the vehicle until you pay it off in full—in which case you’ll own it outright.
- Term loan: Secured and unsecured term loans can be used for many business purposes, including investing in assets. Your lender will give you a lump sum and you’ll make regular repayments (usually monthly).
