Finance Options Available

Ideal4Finance

At Carr Bank Garden Centre we understand that some customers prefer to spread the cost of larger purchases. That’s why we’ve partnered with established credit brokers Ideal4Finance to make flexible monthly payments available on selected products including pergolas, garden buildings, hot tubs and more.

Spread the cost with finance

The following options are available, always subject to the lender’s assessment:

  • 0% APR finance for 12 months
  • 12.9% APR finance for 36, 48, 60 and 120 months

A deposit might be payable, and we will agree this with you before you begin your application.

Important — before you apply

There are risks involved in taking out a loan and you should ensure you can make all payments on time and in full; failure to do so can lead to financial difficulties and have a negative impact on your credit score.

Frequently asked questions

Will applying affect my credit score?

The application process involves a credit check carried out by the lender. The exact impact on your credit file depends on the lender and the type of search. If you have questions about how a particular search may affect your credit file, the Ideal4Finance team can talk you through this before you apply.

Can I use finance on any product?

Finance is available on selected products including pergolas, garden buildings, hot tubs and other higher-value items. If you’re not sure whether finance is available on the product you’re interested in, just get in touch and we’ll be happy to confirm.

How long does it take to get a decision?

Decisions are often returned instantly through the Ideal4Finance application process, although in some cases additional checks may be required. If your application needs further review, the Ideal4Finance team will be in touch directly.

What if I’m declined?

If your application isn’t approved, you’re still very welcome to purchase using any of our other payment methods. The Ideal4Finance team can also discuss the reason for the decision with you directly.

Can I pay my finance off early?

The terms around early repayment depend on the specific lender and agreement you take out. Full details will be provided in your finance documentation before you sign anything, so you can review the terms in full.
