Getting A Car Loan With Bad Credit Is Easy With Galaxy Approved
Are you tired of being told no? Maybe you're missing the usual documents needed for loan approval? Or perhaps you just landed in Canada and don't have a credit score yet? No matter your siutuation Galaxy Approved can help.
Our expertise is helping drivers with lower credit scores get behind the wheel again, so that is what makes us confident about providing loans to anyone regardless of their credit history.
Galaxy Approved works with 16 automotive lenders, so we can guarantee you the best option for financing no matter your credit history. Plus, with our 30+ years of selling used vehicles and being the biggest independent used car dealer in Western Canada, we are intimately familiar with finding the best deals for our clients.
If you try to go to the bank to qualify for a loan, you may end up waiting several weeks for an appointment, followed by waiting even longer for all the paperwork to get finalized. And who knows what kind of interest rate they'll give you!
And if you try to go to another dealership, they may have financing options available but not necessarily the resources to help drivers with bad credit. So you'll end up wasting time at a dealership that will end up rejecting your finance application.
On top of our finance options and inventory, as a used-car dealership, we can offer:
- No payment for 90 days OAC, and the first payment is on us (some restrictions apply)
- If you're currently leasing a car, we can purchase your current lease and offer a great interest rate.
- Provide amazing deals on trade-ins

What Hurts And Helps Your Credit Score
It can be incredibly frustrating when you get notified of a credit score update, only to open up your email or mail to see that your credit score plummeted. To help you understand how credit works in Canada, here are some of the common factors that impact your credit score.
History Of Making Payments
This is the most significant factor that influences your credit score. Nearly 1/3 of your score is based on your ability to make payments on time. If you want to start improving your credit, try your best to make payments by the deadline.
Different Types Of Credit/Debt
A balanced yet varied portfolio of debt is essential. This includes credit cards, store accounts, mortgages, and yes, even car loans. You'll want a mix of debt, but not too many different kinds. If you have too much debt in many places and struggling to make payments, this can negatively impact your credit.
New And Old Accounts
You also have to be careful not to take on too much new debt at the same time. If you apply for too many new accounts in a short time, this tells lenders and creditors you plan to take on a lot of debt, which can be seen as a risk.
Additionally, you must have accounts over a long period and show that you can handle the debt responsibly. The longer the history, the better!
