Marketplace terms & pricing · 13 September 2026

Estimates, not binding offers

Prices are modelled estimates based on inherited Element Bridge inputs. They are not live dealer offers. Vehicle availability, specification, condition, mileage and supplier terms require confirmation. An application does not reserve a vehicle or guarantee approval.

How pricing works

New-vehicle estimates combine funding costs, insurance, tracking, administration, maintenance and other operating allowances, divided by one minus the target margin. Supplier takeovers use the greater of the cost-based estimate and supplier rental plus markup and operating costs. Rental is rounded up to R50; takeover deposits are rounded up to R500 after the modelled markup.

Rent-to-own uses a zero residual assumption. Lease products use configured residuals, which default to zero pending supplier confirmation. Full-maintenance estimates add a modelled service allowance. Mileage above 2 000 km/month adds an indicative maintenance allowance; the supplier’s contractual excess-kilometre charge may differ.

Total cost and exclusions

Scheduled total equals monthly estimate multiplied by the term plus the upfront amount. It excludes fuel, fines, damage, excesses, unagreed usage and any unconfirmed fees. Tax treatment, insurance benefits, exclusions, transfer charges and final settlement terms must be itemised in the supplier’s final offer.

Product outcomes

Rent-to-own ownership is conditional on completing the agreement and all required settlements. Flexi-lease and full-maintenance products do not include ownership. Early return, upgrade and cancellation rights depend on the signed agreement.
