How do I know what my interest rate will be?
Clutch works with many of Canada’s largest financial institutions to help customers get a loan at the best rate.
To find out your interest rate, you need to fill out a financing application, which you can begin by selecting ‘Financing’ as your preferred payment method during checkout.
You can fill out their quick pre-approval form here to get an estimate, even before deciding which car you want. Pre-approval takes less than a minute and shows you the estimated amount you can finance right away.
How does submitting an application work?
Once you complete your financing application, Clutch will send it to potential lenders for approval. If potential lenders require more information, they’ll reach out and ask you to provide it.
Payments are made via electronic funds transfer (EFT). Money will show up in your bank account 1-3 business days after the transaction is complete. EFT is the only payment method offered.
Clutch takes pride in delivering an incredible experience by paying customers the exact value they were quoted online.

How does my auto loan get paid off?
