You might have a bad credit score or declared bankruptcy. If so, you may have been refused a bank loan. We can help in this kind of situation. Our options cover all kinds of credit circumstances. Go Mazda's Finance team will get you a solution that's affordable and fits your budget.
New to Canada?

An existing loan with a high rate
Paying high interest rates on your existing loan can really impact your budget, and we can help. Our parent company, Go Auto, can buy out your existing loan and get you a better finance rate to lower your payments.
Finance vs. lease?
When deciding on financing versus leasing, what's right for one person can be totally wrong for another.
Employment & income
You need to meet two criteria to qualify for a loan. Firstly, you need to be employed at your current job for a minimum of three months. Secondly, your monthly earnings should be at least $1,800. It's worth noting that alternative sources of income such as government assistance or a pension will be considered.
Down payment
While it is possible to go without a down payment, a payment towards your new or pre-used Mazda definitely helps. The larger the down payment, the less you will need to finance and the greater the likelihood a lender will approve a loan.
Driver’s license
To be eligible, you must have a valid driver's license and have reached the age of majority in the province of your residence.
Current address
To complete your loan documents, you will need to provide the lender with your current address details. You will also need to include your monthly rent or mortgage payments and how long you’ve lived there.
Bank account
Lenders will need you to set up a recurring monthly payment, which will be automatically withdrawn from your account. To get started, you will need to provide them with either a void cheque or a standard pre-authorized payment form.
Contact details
You will be required to provide your full name, date of birth, phone number, and email address to apply for a car loan.

Will I be approved?
Four main factors determine whether you get approved for a car loan:
1. Vehicle selection -- Cost, age, and mileage
2. Application information -- Employment history, residence, and income
3. Credit history -- Information contained in your credit file
4. Down payment -- Total of cash and trade equity
For the best chance of approval, and the lowest monthly payment possible, try to select a vehicle that fits your budget. Also, provide as large of a down payment as you can.
How are my car payments calculated?
Once you're approved for a car loan, three factors will affect your monthly payment (in order of importance):
1. Amount financed
2. Term or length of contract
3. Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
We offer competitive rates from a variety of finance companies to fit nearly every budget and credit profile. You can learn more about your personal finance options at any Go Auto dealership.
What is my credit score?
Your credit score is a number that helps financial institutions predict the risk associated with your purchase of a car, house, credit card, etc. Typically, your credit score ranges from about 350 to 850, and is essentially meant to forecast how (and if) you will pay your bills. In general, the higher your credit score, the more likely you are to get approved for a car loan.
The systems that generate your credit score look at your credit report, and take several factors into account when determining your credit score, including, for instance, your payment history, and the number of inquiries made on your credit report.

Mazda financing doesn’t set a needed credit score to qualify for a loan. In general, to qualify for a car loan in Canada, you’ll need a credit score between 630 and 650. The more confident the lender is in your credit history, the lower the interest rate you'll receive for that car loan.

Can I pay off my Mazda loan early without incurring penalties?
Yes! All Mazda loans are open, meaning you can pay out the finance contract at any time without penalties!
