Thinking about applying for Financing?

Good news: Cat® Financial approves a high percentage of applications. Here’s a look at how we’ll evaluate your application.

Here are the main factors we take into account

Have you financed with us before? Thanks for letting us serve you. We already have your credit history, so we won’t request it again. If you’re new to Cat Financial, we may ask for details about previous machine purchases or financing. That’s easy if you have a history with your local Cat dealer, who works directly with us. A good payment record — even for rentals — works in your favor.

Have jobs coming up? Your current work on hand can be a positive factor in the approval process. It gives our team a look at the jobs — and income — you have planned over the next three to six months. Providing copies of contracts is the fastest, best way for our credit team to review your work on hand.
