Zuto connects customers, lenders and dealers through a technology-driven marketplace that brings transparency and simplicity to used car financing.

Certified as a B Corporation and headquartered in Manchester, Zuto has helped more than 450,000 consumers to secure finance.

The company combines proprietary data-matching technology with a customer-first approach to deliver a seamless experience, underpinned by strong relationships with major digital partners such as AutoTrader and ClearScore. Operating in a £30 billion car finance market increasingly shaped by digital adoption and greater transparency, Zuto continues to expand its share as consumers and lenders favour trusted online brokers.

“The fact that Bridgepoint shares our vision and has invested with such confidence is hugely exciting. It gives us the opportunity to strengthen our position, scale our platform, support more customers and give them even greater control.”
