Here in New Zealand, 1.1 million used cars change hands every year, and finding your next car can feel like navigating a maze.
Fenda wants to put you in control of buying and selling your vehicle. Our online platform connects buyers and sellers directly so you can negotiate without pressure, strike a deal, and gain access to the best lending and insurance products in the market. All without having to go through a dealership.
With modern thinking, technology and transparency, combined with a can-do attitude, we’re making the private sale process for buyers and sellers safe, seamless and simple.
How we do things
Fenda helps reduce the risk for people buying cars privately. By providing a service to help negotiate, create an agreement, check out the vehicle and inspect the vehicle to make sure everything checks out ok.
If you use the Fenda service to buy a car and don’t need finance through us, the cost is $228.95. But if you take out a loan through Fenda the service is free. That’s because we make our money by introducing car buyers and sellers to our finance partners. These partners pay us with commission and referral fees for the products that buyers purchase. They also pay us in exchange for advertising their products and to be part of the Fenda platform.
While we’re 100% committed to making car buying and selling a seamless process, we’re not qualified financial advisors.
So we do recommend that you read about the loans and insurance we offer and then if you have any questions, please get advice from a qualified advisor to make sure that these products are right for your personal financial circumstances.
Cars bought using Fenda could be found on TradeMe, Facebook, Car Fairs, even the side of the road. It really doesn’t matter. We do have a free listing service for sellers to list their cars, but our main focus as a company is to look after the interests of car buyers.
