Finance Gap

How it works

If your vehicle is stolen or written off as a result of an accident, fire or theft, most insurers will only pay out the market value for your vehicle, even if the claim was not your fault. Depending on the age and mileage of your vehicle at the time of loss, the market value may be substantially less than the outstanding finance owed on it.

Our Finance GAP Insurance covers the difference between the motor insurer’s write off settlement, and the outstanding payment to the end of your Contract Hire or Lease Agreement. Meaning, you can protect yourself against the risk of financial shortfall and make sure you will not be paying for a vehicle you cannot use.
