Is a Nectar car loan right for you?

If you’re looking for 100% online and personalised car loans, then Nectar NZ can suit you best. They’ll make the loan application process simple for you so you can focus on buying your car instead. They also apply unique processes to make the profile assessment objective. Take note that they make use of various data sources. You should only proceed when you’re comfortable with an extensive profile check (includes checking bank statements).

Profile assessment through Credit Sense

Credit Sense is a programme during the application process where you’ll give Nectar a temporary read-only access (no need to provide the password) to your bank account so they can assess your creditworthiness. Alternatively, you can send bank statements instead if you’re uncomfortable about giving them access. However, this can delay the loan application.
