Whose products we offer

We can introduce you to a panel of lenders and intermediaries with finance products to assist with your vehicle/asset purchase. We are not an independent financial advisor and no not made recommendations. However, we will provide you with information on products which may suit your requirements based on information you disclose to assist you in making an informed decision on your purchase. Please ask for a list of our funding partners. You may be able to obtain funding for your purchase from other providers and you are encouraged to seek alternative quotations.

As a credit broker with a limited panel of preferred credit providers from whom we receive commission Motion Finance is not impartial and is free to prefer its own interests. However, this will not impact the outcome we deliver to you from our limited panel and the commission we receive will never be the primary reason for the decision on which lender to place you with.

Commission arrangements and interest rates

Rates will either be fixed or based on your credit score depending on the dealer/supplier you are purchasing from. Fixed rates are determined by our contractual agreement with the dealer/supplier and they cannot change this rate. Credit score-based rates are pre-agreed with each dealer/supplier and are linked to your individual credit rating along with other parameters including the amount borrowed, asset age, loan to value and mileage of the asset, and the lender who provides the finance. Typically, the higher your credit score, the lower the APR you will receive from a credit provider.

We will receive payment from the credit provider for introducing you to them and we will share that commission amount with the dealer or asset supplier. Different lenders or intermediaries pay different amounts for such introductions.

We have different commission models depending on the arrangements that we have agreed with each lender we deal with and in turn agreed with our dealers or other asset suppliers. The commission received is either a fixed fee or a percentage of the amount you borrow, which means the payment we receive may vary depending on the finance product, the amount you borrow and the term the loan is borrowed over. This may also mean that the more you borrow the more the dealer/supplier is paid.

The amount of commission that we receive from a lender is pre-determined. The percentage of commission that we pay to the dealer/supplier is within a 30-60% range. It is not fixed, but the dealer/supplier cannot influence the amount. The rate you pay is pre-determined and it cannot be changed based on the commission paid. We will confirm the likely amount of commission both we and the dealer/supplier will receive for arranging your finance agreement in good time before you sign the agreement documentation.

We do not charge you a fee for our services, but the commission we receive from the lender and pay to the dealer/supplier impacts the amount you pay.

As stated above, the amount of commission is predetermined by our commercial relationship with the lender and cannot be changed for your agreement.
