How does Interest Free Credit work?

V12 Finance

With V12 Finance Interest Free Credit you can pick any item(s) that meet the Interest Free Credit criteria. A finance calculator link can be found on all eligible product pages and this will show term options and confirm monthly payments. When you have finished shopping you can take your items through to your shopping basket and complete our checkout process either as a guest or by registering for an account. Select Apply for Finance (V12 Finance) as your payment option and Select Finance Period and confirm your deposit. Your deposit will not be taken until you have been approved for finance when you will have to pay a minimum of 10% deposit by any accepted payment method (you can change this up to a maximum of 50% as long as this does not take the loan agreement under £250.00).

Once you click Place Order & Pay you will then be taken to a secure site to complete the V12 Finance Interest Free Credit agreement and you will be told if you are successful at that stage.
