Online Car Loans in San Francisco

 

Getting a car loan in San Francisco can seem hard, but we don't think it should be. With SF Fire Credit Union, you can easily get everything you need online.

Our relationship with a network of trusted dealerships makes the loan process seamless through the Credit Union Direct Lending program (CUDL).

 


 

How to start

If you're looking for that new car, you can start the pre-approval process through  QuickApply in Online Banking or the Mobile Banking app.

While you can complete the entire application process through a CUDL dealership, applying for pre-approval can be a real time-saver.

If you're not an SF Fire Credit Union member, you can still take advantage of CUDL's services by using one of the free programs listed below.

 


 

Buy a car without leaving home

You can also save time by using one of our free Auto Buying Services.

The CUDL program's AutoSmart website lets you search for local participating dealers, find your perfect car, and even apply for your loan from SF Fire Credit Union.

With Autoland, a consultant handles hunting for your perfect car, negotiating the best rates, helping you with the loan application, and can even arrange to have the car delivered right to your door.

 


 

Fast and convenient process

When you work with a participating CUDL dealership to buy your car, all the paperwork and loan details can be taken care of online. No more back-and-forth trips to bring us a bill of sale and pick up a check for the car.

One website, one easy car loan. If you're ready to get started, log in to Online Banking to start the pre-approval process. Or, if you're not a member, simply visit one of the websites listed above.

 


 

Still unsure?

If you're looking for a new or used car in the Bay Area, but aren't quite sure if you can afford the payments, we can help.

Our Financial Education Center has a variety of free resources that could help you decide if a new loan is right for you.

Or take advantage of our Car Loan Calculator to see how much you can afford to borrow.
