Sobre nosotros
We're making car ownership accessible for all people in South Africa and Mexico. Many banks don't offer finance, even to qualified professionals with steady jobs. But we do. Getting a car can change someone's life, so we have made it our mission to provide life-changing, easy access to mobility for individuals in emerging markets through our rent-to-buy subscription model, with an option to buy outright at any point.

Our investment consists of R50 million in equity and a R250 million credit facility, a testament to our commitment to partnering with high-growth businesses that are solving complex problems in South Africa.
