Our lawyers asked nicely to share this with you. Here's everything you need to know in one place.
A note from our Credit team: When Carputty began, LIBOR was a leading benchmark base interest rate. As announced by the Federal Reserve in December 2022, LIBOR will be permanently be replaced by the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the standard benchmark for US loans. The deadline for this transition was set as June 30, 2023, so effective July 1, 2023 all subsequent Advances will utilize SOFR as the base rate.
For clarity, this change will have no impact on any active advances - the rate and payments on any vehicles currently financed through your Flexline will not change. It will only apply to new Advances taken against your Flexline.
Interest rates are variable and range based on the value of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) and creditworthiness criteria. Credit limits from a minimum of $25,000 up to $250,000 are available to qualified applicants. Standard underwriting guidelines and credit policies apply. Many factors affect credit scores and the interest rates approved applicants may receive. Not all rates and amounts are available in all states. Not all approved applicants will receive the lowest rates available. To qualify for the lowest rates available, borrowers must have a good credit history and satisfy other conditions.
To check the rates and terms you qualify for, Carputty will review your credit history in a way that will not affect your credit score. If you continue the process and submit your application, Carputty will request your full consumer report from one or more consumer reporting agencies. That “hard” credit pull may affect your credit score.
If you apply and are approved for a Carputty Credit Account, your actual rate will be within the range of rates listed above and will depend on a variety of factors, including your credit score and credit history, years of credit experience, income and other factors. Each time you use your Carputty Credit Account we fix the interest rate for the amount advanced based on the value of SOFR at that time.
Available interest rates and credit terms are subject to change at any time at the sole discretion of Carputty without notice. Approved borrowers will sign a credit agreement that describes the actual terms and conditions of the Carputty Credit Account.
You must be 18 years old or otherwise have the ability to legally contract for vehicle financing in your state of residence, and either a U.S. citizen or resident alien (permanent or non-permanent) with proof of status. You must be employed and live in a state where Carputty offers Credit Accounts.
The following types of vehicles are not eligible for financing with an advance from a Carputty credit account:

Terms and conditions apply to financing and vehicle eligibility. Available credit limits, interest rates and other terms may change from time to time at Carputty’s sole discretion.
Carputty works with vehicle sellers across the United States to assist our customers with the financing of their new and eligible used vehicles.

Carputty makes no warranties or representations with respect to the quality or condition of any vehicle Carputty customers buy and finance using a Carputty credit account.
