This isn't rent-to-own

A real pathway to bank finance — not a rental trap.

Most "rent-to-own" programs leave you renting forever or locked into a single car. DepositBuilder graduates you off the program and into proper finance with a real lender.

Typical Rent-to-Own

Rent forever, then own that car

  • High total cost over the rental term
  • Locked into one vehicle for years
  • No credit profile improvement
  • No genuine cash deposit at the end
  • Often ABN-only

DepositBuilder

Drive, build, then finance the car you actually want

  • A portion of every payment becomes a real cash deposit
  • 12+ months of verifiable on-time payment history
  • Credit coaching to clean up and rebuild your profile
  • Human advocacy when applying to lenders
  • Choose any vehicle when you're finance-ready
