Answers at your fingertips

Is Aro a credit broker or a lender?

Aro is a credit broker, not a lender. This means that when you check your loan, credit card or car finance options through us, we use smart decisioning to quickly check your details against our lenders’ eligibility criteria and find you suitable borrowing options.

How many lenders do you have?

As a credit broker, currently we have over 50+ UK lenders, credit card providers, mortgages and specialist car finance brokers that we can check your eligibility against.

Does Aro’s smart search affect my credit score?

No, our smart search won’t impact your credit score. At Aro, we only use a soft credit check to match you with accurate borrowing options. This means that when you look for a loan, credit card or car finance through us, the search on your credit file won’t be visible to anyone but you.

If you do choose to proceed with a lender, the lender may run a hard credit check to make their final decision.

How much can I borrow?

Good question. Essentially, this all comes down to you and your situation. If you have a lower credit score or are already responsible for a number of credit repayments, you might find that the maximum amount you’re eligible to borrow is a bit less.

That said, typically personal loans range from £500 to £35,000 over terms of 1 to 7 years. If you’re a homeowner, you could also think about a homeowner loan. Homeowner loans tend to range from £5,000 to £500,000+ over terms of 1 to 30 years.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other debt secured on it.

For credit cards, all cards come with a minimum and maximum credit limit. The credit limit you’re offered will depend on your personal circumstances. If you’re not offered the maximum credit limit straight away, your credit card provider could increase your credit limit in the future.

If you’re searching for car finance, Aro can help you compare both hire purchase (HP) and personal contract purchase (PCP) agreements. Our car finance options could help you borrow up to £200,000 over terms of 1 to 6 years.

What rates can I get?

The rate or APR you’re offered by lenders on a loan will be based on both your credit history and personal circumstances.

At Aro, we precisely assess all of your borrowing needs. Then, we use your data to match you with the best products for you and your finances. We also clearly indicate when a rate is real (guaranteed) or representative (advertised).

This means you’re clear on what rate you can expect before you proceed with a lender.

Not clear on the difference between real and representative rates? Our guide to real rates explains all.
