Car finance broker software: calculators & applications

Car finance: from calculator to application in one flow. Repayments, applications, approvals.

Buyers play with your repayment calculator on Saturday night, close the tab and finance the car through the dealer on Monday. Applications get taken over the phone, payslips arrive as blurry photos across three emails and dealers send leads by text. We build calculator-to-application systems for car finance brokers that capture the lead, collect the documents and keep buyers posted. Then we host them and look after them.

Looking for car finance calculators and application software that actually brings in deals?

Car buyers start with one question: what will it cost me a week? Most broker websites answer it with a calculator that spits out a number and then lets the buyer walk off. The ones who do get in touch end up on a 20 minute phone call, then a week of chasing payslips, licences and bank statements while the car they want sits on hold at the yard. Dealer referrals come in by text and nobody can say whose lead it was by the time commission lands.

Wollopit builds custom car finance software around how your brokerage actually runs. The calculator flows straight into a mobile-friendly application with the figures already filled in. Documents get collected through a checklist with secure uploads. Dealers refer through their own portal and buyers get a text at every stage instead of ringing you. We connect the CRM and tools you already use, replace the bits holding you back and host the lot on our own servers.

01The problems

What we hear from car finance brokers

Does your car finance business have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most car finance brokers we talk to are great at finding the right lender and terrible at being stuck in admin. The deals are there. They just leak out between the calculator and settlement.

  • The problemCalculators that lead nowhereSomeone drags the repayment slider at 9pm, gets a weekly figure and leaves. You never even knew they were there.
    How we fix itEvery calculator ends with a 'see what you could get' button that starts an application with the loan amount, term and balloon already filled in.
  • The problemApplications taken by phoneTwenty minutes reading out address history and employment details while you type it all into the CRM.
    How we fix itA mobile-friendly application buyers finish on the couch, saved as they go and dropped straight into your CRM.

  • The problemSettlement scramblesApproval comes through, then the vehicle details, dealer invoice and insurance certificate arrive at the last minute.
    How we fix itA settlement checklist for the vehicle, tax invoice, insurance and PPSR check that ticks itself off as each piece lands.
  • The problemCompliance paperwork everywhereCredit guides emailed by hand, privacy consents printed and scanned and the preliminary assessment saved who knows where.
    How we fix itCredit guide, privacy consent and e-signatures built into the application, with every version stored against the file.
  • The problemHalf-finished applications go coldBuyers get halfway through, get distracted and nobody follows up until it's too late.
    How we fix itGentle nudges for unfinished applications, follow-up tasks for brokers and a pipeline showing exactly who stalled where.
  • The problemCommissions on a spreadsheetLender commissions, dealer referral fees and broker splits reconciled by hand at the end of every month.
    How we fix itCommission tracking per deal with expected versus received, dealer payouts and figures ready for Xero or MYOB.

03The systems

The big ones

Your whole brokerage, on one system.

These are the systems car finance brokers ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.

Calculator to application

The calculator is where the application starts.

Buyers get their weekly repayment figure, then carry it straight into an application without typing anything twice. The application saves as they go and works on a phone. Consumer and business buyers each get the questions that fit them.

  • Weekly, fortnightly and monthly repayments
  • Deposit, trade-in and balloon options
  • Clearly labelled as estimates
  • Figures carried into the application
  • Saves progress on any device
  • Consumer and ABN business paths
  • Low doc questions for the self-employed
  • Credit guide and privacy consent built in
  • E-signatures on the spot
  • Unfinished application nudges

Document collection

Every document, on one checklist.

Each buyer gets a checklist built for their situation, from PAYG payslips to BAS statements for the self-employed. They upload from their phone, share bank statements through a secure link and get reminded about whatever's still missing.

  • Checklists tailored to each buyer
  • Uploads straight from a phone camera
  • Driver licence capture front and back
  • Bank statement retrieval by secure link
  • Automatic reminders for missing items
  • Broker review and reject with a note
  • Files stored against the deal
  • Pushed through to your CRM
  • Access controls on every file
  • Nothing sent by plain email

Dealer referrals

Dealers refer in seconds. You know whose lead it was.

Partner dealers get their own login with a quick referral form for the showroom floor. Every lead is timestamped and tracked through to settlement. The dealer can see progress without ringing you.

  • Dealer logins per yard and salesperson
  • Referral form that works on a phone
  • Lead timestamps and ownership
  • Status visible to the dealer
  • Car on hold dates flagged
  • Referral fee tracking
  • Monthly referral reports per dealer
  • Dealer invoices and tax invoices uploaded
  • Settlement notices sent to the yard
  • Quiet dealers flagged for a visit

Status & pipeline

Buyers stop ringing. You stop guessing.

Every deal sits on one pipeline from enquiry to settlement. As a deal moves, buyers and dealers get a text and the status page updates itself. Brokers see what's stalled before it costs a sale.

  • Pipeline from enquiry to settlement
  • Automatic texts and emails per stage
  • Status page for buyers
  • Pre-approval with conditions and expiry
  • Settlement checklist with PPSR check
  • Tasks and follow-ups for brokers
  • Stalled deal alerts
  • Notes and call logs on each file
  • Synced with Salesforce or HubSpot
  • Conversion from calculator to settlement

Commissions & renewals

Get paid properly. Then get the next car.

Track what each lender owes you, what you owe each dealer and how splits work across your brokers. When a loan nears its end or a balloon falls due, past clients hear from you first.

  • Expected and received commission per deal
  • Missing commission alerts
  • Dealer referral fee payouts
  • Broker splits and targets
  • Figures ready for Xero or MYOB
  • Clawback tracking
  • Balloon due reminders
  • End-of-term check-ins
  • Past client birthday and anniversary notes
  • Repeat client reports
04How it changes

Before and after

A weekend car buyer, wolloped.

Here's how a Saturday night enquiry could change. Every brokerage is different, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Buyer uses the calculator and leaves
  2. You never knew they were there
  3. They ring on Monday if you're lucky
  4. Twenty minute application over the phone
  5. A week chasing payslips and statements
  6. The car on hold gets sold to someone else

After

  1. The calculator starts the application
  2. Details captured on their phone that night
  3. Licence and payslips uploaded before bed
  4. Bank statements shared through a secure link
  5. You review a complete file on Monday morning
  6. Pre-approval sooner and the car stays on hold

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your car finance business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We sit with your brokers and follow a deal from the first calculator click to settlement, then work out where buyers and hours are leaking.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your calculators, application paths, documents, dealers, CRM, compliance records, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the calculator-to-application flow first, so you see more complete files quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, keep it secure and keep improving it. When something needs changing you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things car finance brokers ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Are calculator figures clearly estimates?

Yes. They're labelled as estimates and don't represent an offer of credit. We'll word the disclaimers with you so they suit how you work.

Does using the calculator affect a buyer's credit score?

No. The calculator doesn't run any credit check. Credit enquiries only happen later in your process with the buyer's consent.

Can applications go straight into our CRM?

Yes. We can push applications, documents and notes into Salesforce, HubSpot or your broker CRM so nobody retypes anything.

Can dealers refer buyers to us through it?

Yes. Dealers get their own login with a quick referral form. Every lead is tracked so you know where it came from and the dealer can see progress.

Is buyer information kept secure?

Yes. Documents are uploaded through secure links rather than email, access is limited to the right people and everything is stored against the file on our managed servers.

We already use a CRM and aggregator. Do we have to switch?

No. We build around what's working and add the calculator, application, documents and dealer side on top. If something is holding you back we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.

How much does a car finance system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like a calculator that starts applications can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most car finance brokers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
