That’s why we focus on clear guidance, fast turnaround times, and a service that’s built around you.

Our Story

Why FME Exists

FME was born from a simple yet powerful observation: vehicle finance in New Zealand was built to serve dealerships and lenders, not the people buying cars. Our founders, Brenden and Tyler, spent decades inside dealerships and lender systems.

They saw hardworking Kiwis confused by jargon, hidden fees and vague approval processes and decided there had to be a better way. They left the dealership world to build it.

OUR SERVICES

What We Finance

How it works

Getting finance doesn't need to be complicated

We’ve simplified the finance process so you always know what to expect – and what comes next.

Phone Application

Most of our applications are completed over the phone — it’s quick, simple and saves you time.

In around 10 minutes, we’ll gather a few key details and make sure everything lines up properly before moving forward. No complicated forms, no back-and-forth emails — just a straightforward conversation.

We’ll guide you through it step by step so you know exactly what happens next.

Conditional Approval

Once we’ve completed the phone application, we submit your details to the right lender for conditional approval.

Most clients come to us with a general idea of what they want to spend. However, we’ll often apply for a maximum lend so you understand the full amount you’re able to secure. This gives you clarity and broadens your options before you commit to a vehicle.

We’ll confirm what you’re approved for, outline any conditions required, and explain exactly what happens next.

Verifying the Loan

Once conditional approval is in place, we move to verification. This is where you’ll provide your driver’s licence, proof of address and proof of income.

In most cases it’s straightforward. If the financing entity requires additional information or your situation is slightly more complex, don’t worry — we’re experienced in guiding our customers through exactly what’s needed to keep things moving smoothly.

Finding a Vehicle

Now the fun part.

Loan approvals typically remain valid for 30 days, and with so many options available, we help make the decision easier. We can conduct a nationwide search to find a vehicle that fits your needs and budget.

We can also assist with securing a strong trade-in price for your current vehicle.

Answers to common
finance queries

How much can I get approved for?

Your approval amount depends on your income, expenses, credit history, and the type of loan you’re applying for.

At FME – Finance Made Easy, we work with multiple New Zealand lenders to find the best possible approval and structure for your situation — often within the same day.

Do I need a deposit to get finance?

Not always.

Some customers can be approved with no deposit, while others may need a small contribution depending on the lender, vehicle, or credit profile.

We’ll explain your options clearly and help you choose the most affordable structure, not just the fastest approval.

How long does the finance process take?

Most applications receive an initial decision within a few hours, and once documents are confirmed, funding can often happen within 24–48 hours, sometimes even quicker.

Our goal is to keep the process simple, fast, and stress-free from approval through to vehicle handover or funds paid out.
