Finance options

You don't have to pay for your HGV course in one go. We offer two routes - 0% in-house finance direct with us, or monthly finance through our credit broker partner. Here's what each one gives you.

0% in-house finance

Direct with HGV Academy

A private payment plan between you and us. £800 first payment (reducible on request) starts the course, then the balance is split into equal monthly payments. No lender involved.

0% interest - you pay the course price and nothing more
No credit check, soft or hard - bad credit welcome
No lender, no broker, no application to be declined
£800 first payment starts the course - forms, medical, theory tests and theory kit (and it can be reduced on request)
Remaining balance split into equal monthly payments
Pay the balance off early whenever you like to speed things up
Written agreement up front showing every date and amount

Worth knowing: your driving lessons, tests and CPC Module 4 are released once the final payment clears, so this route usually takes longer overall.

Finance through Ideal4Finance

Credit broker, not a lender

Apply online or by phone and their panel of lenders searches for an offer based on your circumstances. If accepted and funded, your course is paid up front and you repay the lender monthly.

Normally the fastest route to your licence - the course is funded up front
All training and test dates can be booked straight away
No deposit required
Terms typically from 12 to 60 months, so you choose the monthly amount
A panel of lenders, including those who consider less-than-perfect credit
Apply online or by phone with a quick decision
Nothing to pay HGV Academy directly - the lender settles the course

Finance is subject to status and acceptance is not guaranteed. Missing payments can lead to financial difficulty and harm your credit score.
