Overview

Carmoola is a London financial technology company founded in 2021 that provides car finance directly through a mobile app. Its underwriting approves a budget before the buyer visits a dealer, which reverses the usual sequence of choosing a car then arranging credit at the forecourt. The company holds its own lending permissions rather than acting as a broker.
