You have two ways to apply for a finance plan.

You can visit one of our training providers and apply for a Snap Loan at the checkout where you have the option to Pay in 4. Alternatively, you can apply for a Snap Card, which allows you to spend your loan across multiple providers. After 30-days your Snap Card loan will close and you repayments will begin.

The application process is the same for both options. It only takes a few minutes to apply, with a decision provided in seconds. You can choose a repayment term that suits you and select a repayment date that aligns with your income schedule.

This varies by provider, but finance is commonly available on qualifications including NVQs, first aid, teaching assistant, project management, cyber security, digital marketing and food hygiene courses.

If you use Snap Finance directly with a provider you can choose any term from 18, 24, 36 or 48 months. You'll also have the option to Pay in 4 interest-free (0% APR*)

* If you take out a loan and can't keep up with the 4 instalments, your loan will revert to your chosen loan term at your agreed APR and therefore interest will be applied from the start of the loan.

No. Finance approval is subject to eligibility, affordability and Snap's assessment criteria.

All of them. We work with a wide range of training providers that offer flexible payment options, allowing you to spread the cost of your course through affordable monthly repayments. These include Learn Direct, Open Study College, Learning People, Teesside LGV Training, and many more.

Yes. Snap Finance is designed to help customers who may have been declined by mainstream lenders. We look beyond your credit score and carry out an affordability assessment to determine what you can comfortably repay. You can check your eligibility using a soft credit check, which has no impact on your credit file. Many customers with poor or limited credit history are approved through Snap Finance.

Yes. You can use your Snap Card to finance one or more training courses, as long as the total is £250 or more. There is no need to finance them separately. Simply use your Snap Card at any approved course provider, choose your training course/s, and spread the cost over a repayment term that suits you, with options of up to 48 months available.

At Snap we offer fast and flexible loan products to help you spread the cost of your next sofa.

Snap at Checkout
Visit any of our online furniture retailers where you can choose Snap at the checkout. Once you select Snap Finance as a payment option you'll be redirect to our application form.

The application process is simple and can be completed online, with your eligibility being determined in minutes. Our flexible repayment options allow you to choose the repayment plan that best fits your needs and budget. An initial “soft check” is performed so applying won’t hurt your credit score. Please note, a hard check is performed at the point you take the loan.

Snap Card
Snap Card enables you to apply for a loan and if approved add the funds to a virtual card which you can then use to spend all our retailers, whether in-store or online. You can add your Snap Card to Apple Pay or Google Pay. This loan lasts for 30-days, at which point we calculate what you have spent and therefore this becomes the amount you pay back over a term that works best for you. 

Snap Finance's "Pay in 4" feature allows you to split the amount of a purchase into four equal payments. This feature is only available through our retailers, and not Snap Card.

When you apply for a Snap Finance loan you can select our Pay in 4 feature which in essence cancels all interest payable on your loan providing you clear off the original balance of your purchases within that 4 month period.

If you select Pay in 4 and your circumstances change and you can’t pay the balance off in 4 months, your payments transform into an interest-bearing loan over the period you’ve selected which allows you to pay it off longer and reduces the immediate impact of paying things off with higher lump sums.

Overall, this feature simplifies financing and helps you manage your expenses more effectively.

Once approved, you’ll receive a Snap Card which you can access by downloading the Snap Wallet app. The loan applied to your Snap Card is only valid for 30-days. You can use it online or in stores by entering the 16-digit card number, expiry date, and security code. Alternatively you can add your Snap Card to Apple Pay or Google Pay to make paying that little bit easier.

After 30 days, whatever you’ve spent on your card becomes your loan which you repay on a monthly term that suits you. Your first payment is due on the selected day of the month, a minimum of 7 days after the spend window closes.

We're a responsible lender, meaning we never offer loans we don't think you could comfortably afford to pay back. To make sure we're getting this right, we'll initially run a soft credit check to assess your eligibility. This doesn't affect your credit score.

We also run checks to validate your income and ID, these do not impact your credit file score.

Before finalising your agreement, we will carry out a hard credit search with credit reference agencies, and identification verification checks. If the checks are not satisfactory, we may decline your application. If we decline your application, we will let you know via email.
