How it works

Simple, transparent, fair.

1

Post your request — free, no card needed

Tell us your budget, the car you want (or just the type), mileage limit, and any must-haves. Takes 3 minutes. Your request goes live and is immediately visible to verified dealers.

2

Receive offers from verified dealers

Dealers respond with specific cars from their actual stock — price, mileage, photos, and a personal message. You compare them side by side. They compete; you decide.

3

Accept the best offer

When you find the right car, accept the dealer's offer. The dealer shares their full contact details with you directly. No payment needed until you are happy with the car.

4

Confirm your purchase — get your Amazon voucher

Once you collect the car, confirm in the app and upload your proof of sale (V5 or invoice). We send you an Amazon voucher within 48 hours — £10 for cars up to £15,000, or £15 for cars above £15,000.

Net cost to buyer: £0 — deposit fully refunded + Amazon voucher
1

Register and browse live requests — free

Once verified, you can see every live buyer request. Real budgets, real specs, real intent. Filter by budget, location, and make. No cost to browse, ever.

2

Make targeted offers — free

Submit a specific car from your stock with a price and personal message directly to a buyer who is already looking for it. Making offers costs nothing. No limit on how many you submit.

3

Buyer accepts — you get their contact details

When a buyer accepts your offer, you receive their full name, phone, and email address directly. Every buyer is a real, registered user with a verified email address.

4

Sale completes — both confirm — you pay 1%

Buyer confirms in the app. You confirm from your dashboard within 48 hours. AutoRequest invoices 1% of the confirmed sale price. On a £12,000 car that is £120. That is everything you ever pay us. Confirmation by both parties is required — our team follows up if there is any issue.

AutoRequest until you sell
We charge nothing until a buyer confirms a completed purchase in the app. If you don't sell through us, you pay nothing. That's the entire pitch.

Pricing

Pay when you sell.
Not before.

The model is simple: we only earn when you make a confirmed sale. No monthly fees, no listing costs, no contracts.

Traditional listing platforms
Pay regardless of results
Monthly fees charged whether you sell one car or a hundred. The platform makes money before you do.
Fixed monthly fee
Charged upfront, regardless of sales
  • Pay before any sale happens
  • Compete with hundreds of identical listings
  • Browser traffic, not verified buyer intent
  • No refund if you sell nothing that month
  • Annual contracts, hard to leave
AutoRequest — dealers only
PRE-LAUNCH
Pay only when you sell
1% of the confirmed sale price, charged only after both buyer and dealer confirm the purchase in the app.
1%
Of confirmed sale price only — nothing before
  • Zero monthly subscription, ever
  • Zero cost to browse or make offers
  • Buyer has already chosen your car
  • Dual confirmation protects both sides
  • No contract — leave any time
Published dealer package pricing for the UK's largest automotive listing platforms is publicly available at autotrader.co.uk/dealer-packages and motors.co.uk. AutoRequest does not make specific claims about competitor pricing as packages vary by stock volume and negotiated rate.

Help & FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Email us at hello@autorequest.co.uk

For buyers
Is it really free to post a request?
Yes, completely free. No card required, no subscription, no hidden charges. You post your request, dealers respond with offers, and you choose. AutoRequest earns nothing from buyers at any point. We charge dealers a 1% commission only after a sale completes — so our incentive is to get you a good deal.
Do I need to pay anything to accept a dealer's offer?
No. Accepting a dealer's offer is completely free. You only ever pay the dealer directly when you buy the car. AutoRequest charges the dealer 1% commission — you pay nothing to us at any point.
How long does it take to receive offers?
It depends on your budget and specification, but most buyers receive their first offer within a few hours of posting. Popular requests — flexible spec, budget over £8,000, common makes — attract the fastest responses. More specific requests may take a day or two as dealers need to source the right vehicle.
Are the dealers verified?
Yes. Every dealer on AutoRequest is manually verified before they can make offers. We check their Companies House registration number, confirm they hold valid trade insurance, and review their application. Private sellers are not permitted on the platform — every offer you receive comes from a legitimate, registered UK motor trade business.
What if the car doesn't match what was offered?
You are never obligated to buy. If the car doesn't match the dealer's description when you view it, simply walk away. We encourage all buyers to view any vehicle in person before committing. If you have concerns about a specific dealer's conduct, contact us at hello@autorequest.co.uk and we will investigate.
What is the Amazon voucher and how do I get it?
As a thank-you for confirming your purchase, we send you an Amazon gift voucher by email. Upload your V5C document or dealer invoice when confirming your purchase in your dashboard — £10 for cars up to £15,000, £15 for cars above £15,000. We will email the voucher to your registered email address within 48 hours of confirmation.
How do I confirm my purchase?
Once you have bought the car and collected it, open your buyer dashboard, go to "Confirm a sale", upload your proof of sale (V5C document or dealer invoice), and click confirm. This triggers your Amazon voucher and lets us invoice the dealer the 1% commission. You have 30 days from accepting an offer to confirm.
For dealers
How does the 1% commission work?
When a buyer and dealer both confirm a completed sale in the app, AutoRequest invoices the dealer 1% of the confirmed sale price. On a £12,000 sale that is £120. That is the only payment you ever make to us — no subscription, no listing fee, no cost to browse or make offers. Commission is owed on any sale that follows an introduction through AutoRequest, whether or not the in-app confirmation flow is used.
What if the buyer doesn't confirm?
If a buyer confirms a purchase and the dealer does not confirm within 48 hours, our team contacts the dealer directly to resolve it. We do not auto-invoice. Every confirmation query is handled personally. If there is a genuine dispute, email us at hello@autorequest.co.uk and we will pause the process while we investigate.
How is AutoRequest different from Autotrader?
Autotrader charges dealers a fixed monthly subscription — typically £600 to £2,000 per month — regardless of whether they sell anything. AutoRequest charges nothing until a sale completes, then 1%. On Autotrader you pay to be visible to passive browsers. On AutoRequest, a buyer has already told you exactly what they want and their budget — you respond only when you have the right car. The buyer is already motivated. That is a fundamentally different proposition.
What is the founding dealer programme?
The first 100 dealers to register have their 1% rate locked for their first three years, a founding member badge on their profile, and priority access to buyer requests before we open to all dealers. Once 100 founding spots are taken, the standard rate applies to new registrations. Your founding rate is locked from your first confirmed sale.
How do I get verified as a dealer?
Register using the dealer application form. We require your Companies House number, trade insurance details, and contact information. Our team manually reviews each application within 24–48 hours. You will receive an email once approved. Once approved you can browse live buyer requests and make offers immediately.
Can private sellers use AutoRequest?
No. AutoRequest is exclusively for verified, registered UK motor trade businesses. We do not accept private sellers. Every dealer on the platform has been verified through Companies House and holds valid trade credentials. This protects buyers — when you receive an offer through AutoRequest, you know it comes from a legitimate, accountable business. Think of us as the Zoopla of car sales: agencies only, no private listings.
