Get a fairer deal, faster from a professional team that cares

Once you’ve completed an application with Loansmart, you can sit back and let us take care of the process for you. We keep you in the loop and work fast, so you get your loan approved sooner.

Secured Car Loans

  • Borrow more than $75,000*
  • Interest rates from 9.95%*

For loans exceeding $50,000, we’ll likely need to use your car as security. The process is a little more involved, but we move fast to get your loan approved ASAP.

As part of the Loansmart service, we will check the ownership of the vehicle for you and make sure there is no money owing on it (or stolen). We also ensure that the car loan proceeds go to the right person and that once they receive the funds the vehicle is transferred to your name.

Once you find the car you want we just need to check it is ‘suitable’ for security purposes first (online checks). Once we give the “ok” you can tell the seller your ready to buy it!

If you’re struggling to meet our lending criteria, then using your car as security may be the easiest way to get approval. One of our Personal Loan Consultants will assess your application and explain your options.

Car Loan FAqs

We treat your application confidentially and the only people who will see your application are Loansmart and any loan providers that we send it to.

Most definitely!  We thoroughly recommend getting pre-approved prior to purchasing your next vehicle. All pre-approvals last for 30 days giving you plenty of time to track down that bargain. If 30 days isn’t long enough we may just need a few things to renew your approval again.

We can normally assist if we know the circumstances. In most cases we can still help or we may require additional security. If you do not have the security required we may need to add a guarantor or joint borrower who can offer security for the loan. A guarantor will be responsible for the loan if you do not pay. A joint borrower would share the responsibility of repayments with you.

Yes we are able to finance vehicles bought privately, through Trademe, vehicle tender, auction or from a reputable vehicle dealer.

No. We are an independent financial services company who can arrange lending for customers using our loan providers. We have no association or interest in any motor vehicle dealers.

If the car is being used as security on the loan, then yes. You will need to have full/comprehensive insurance on the vehicle for as long as the car is securing the loan.
