How the partner onboarding process works

Becoming an approved partner with AutoMoney Trust involves a structured onboarding process so both sides understand how the relationship will work.

Initial conversation and partner questionnaire

The process starts with an initial conversation with our team. If we cannot answer everything immediately, we will arrange a guaranteed callback and make sure the right person follows up.

We will then ask you to complete a partner questionnaire so we can understand who you are, how your business operates, the type of customers you support, your sales process and your compliance setup.

Compliance review and sign-off

Our team will review the information provided and complete the required compliance checks. This helps make sure your business meets the standards expected of an AutoMoney Trust introducer.


Icon Number Three

Commission and contract discussion

Once the compliance checks are complete, we will discuss commission, contractual terms and how the working relationship will operate. We are committed to clear and transparent commission disclosure.

System and process training

We will support your team with system training, prompt guidance, documentation requirements and how to use our process effectively. This helps your agents submit cases clearly and understand what happens at each stage.


Vehicle criteria and application support

Vehicle criteria are an important part of responsible lending and agreement quality. Before finance is approved, the vehicle will need to meet our checks and requirements.

This may include reviewing the vehicle type, age, mileage, value, condition, dealer information and any other criteria needed to make sure the agreement is suitable. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is likely to meet the requirements, our team can help you check before the application progresses.

We also provide support around common vehicle-related questions, including financed vehicle ownership, insurance, modifications and what happens if a vehicle has existing finance. Useful customer-facing resources can be found in our guides

Can AutoMoney Trust support young drivers?

Supporting young drivers?

If you're wondering "can first-time drivers get car finance in the UK?", the answer is yes. While approval isn't guaranteed, many first-time drivers are able to access car finance by demonstrating that they can comfortably afford the repayments and meet the lender's requirements. If it's your first time financing a car, choosing the right finance option and understanding what's involved can help make the application process more straightforward. 

AutoMoney Trust can consider applications from young drivers aged 18 to 21 and understands that securing car finance can be more challenging if you have limited credit history or are applying for finance for the first time. If you're unsure how your credit profile could affect your application, our guide on credit score explains what lenders may consider.

Every application is assessed individually, taking into account your personal circumstances, income, employment details and ability to manage the monthly repayments. This means our decisions are not based solely on your age or credit history, but on whether the finance agreement is affordable and suitable for your financial situation.

AutoMoney Trust's hire purchase car finance options allow eligible customers to spread the cost of a vehicle through fixed monthly payments, subject to status and approval.

For more information about getting finance as a new driver, including what lenders may consider and tips for preparing your application, read our guide on Car Finance for New Drivers.

Can AutoMoney Trust support customers with adverse credit?

Supporting customers with adverse credit

Yes, you may still be able to get car finance if you have a poor credit history. AutoMoney Trust considers applications from customers with a wide range of credit profiles, including those with adverse credit, a low credit score or who have previously been refused car finance elsewhere. If you're looking for a secured loan with a poor credit history, having a less-than-perfect credit history does not automatically mean you cannot access car finance. Every application is assessed individually based on your current financial circumstances.

When assessing an application, we consider your overall financial situation rather than relying solely on your credit history. Factors such as affordability, income, employment status and your ability to manage monthly repayments are all taken into account to determine whether Hire Purchase car finance is suitable for you.

If you have experienced car finance refusal or struggled to get approved by other lenders, AutoMoney Trust may still be able to help. As a direct lender, we make responsible lending decisions based on your individual circumstances, rather than your credit score alone. This means customers searching for car finance or a secured loan with bad credit may still have options available, provided the finance is affordable.

Who can apply to become an AutoMoney Trust partner?

Being an AutoMoney Trust partner

Car finance brokers and motor dealerships can apply to become an AutoMoney Trust partner, provided they meet our onboarding, regulatory, and compliance requirements. We work with partners who share our commitment to responsible lending, fair customer outcomes, and high standards of service. 

To be considered, businesses must typically hold FCA authorisation, SAF accreditation, ICO registration, have the appropriate policies and procedures in place, and have been actively trading for at least two years. As part of the onboarding process, we also carry out due diligence to ensure prospective partners meet out operational and compliance standards. 

Once approved, partners gain access to our hire purchase car finance products, ongoing relationship management, application support, training, and dedicated partner services to help deliver a smooth experience for both businesses and customers. 

What documents do I need for a car finance application?

Documents you may be asked to provide

To apply for car finance with AutoMoney Trust, you'll usually need documents that help verify your identity, confirm your income and affordability, and validate your address. The exact documents we'll ask for will depend on your individual circumstances, but having the relevant information ready before you start your application can help make the process quicker, smoother and reduce the likelihood of delays.

You may need to provide proof of identity, such as a valid UK driving license or passport, along with proof of income such as recent payslips or bank statements. You may be asked for proof of address dated within the last three months, as well as details of the vehicle you are looking to finance if you have already chosen one. 

If you are self-employed and applying for car finance, you may need to provide additional information, such as SA302 forms, tax calculations, or business accounts, to help demonstrate your income and affordability. 

The documents required can vary depending on your individual circumstances and application. Providing accurate details and having your documents available in advance can help sped up the car finance application process and reduce the need for additional requests.
