COMMISSION DISCLOSURE
We provide our service free of charge to all customers. If you are completely satisfied with a loan offer and decide to proceed, we may receive a commission from the lender, the value of which is decided by the lender and may vary depending on factors such as; the loan size, the type of asset being financed, the type of finance product and your credit score. Typically we will be paid a percentage of the loan amount which you receive and if you wish to know how much this is you may write to us requesting that we inform you.
Private Individuals
The commission we earn will not affect the amount you have to repay under any agreement or the monthly repayment.
Business customers
Some lenders do give us the ability to increase or lower the interest charges in order to affect the amount of commission we may receive. This is always included in the monthly payment and total amount repayable.
