Buying the vehicle that compliments your lifestyle is important.
Whether it’s a high-powered sports car for your fast-paced personality,
or the family-friendly minivan you need for your growing family.
Bank of America can help you feel more in control on the road to buying and financing your next vehicle.
You probably spend plenty of time researching what vehicle you really want using our online auto shopping tool or other resources, but researching your auto financing is just as important.
There are many factors that can impact how much your monthly payment will be.

The auto financing process begins with being informed about the whole experience, and we’re here to make it as stress free as possible to help you get the auto financing you are looking for. There will be three main stages to the process.
First, the Getting Started stage, when you can research vehicles and financing options, then apply for auto financing online, in-person, or over the phone.

Vehicle financing provided by Bank of America. Credit and collateral are subject to approval. Terms and conditions apply. Automobile shopping content provided by automobile dealerships through a website provided by a third party not affiliated with Bank of America and is not available in all states.

Then, in the Loan Approval stage, you may work with a Loan Specialist to discuss the best terms for your financing, submit any additional documents needed, and if approved, close your purchase or refinance.

Bank of America offers financing for new or used vehicles that are purchased from most franchise dealers, and a few independent dealers.

Franchise dealers sell new and used cars for auto manufacturers such as Ford®, General Motors®, Chrysler®, Honda® and others. Independent dealers are not affiliated with an auto manufacturer and may sell many different brands of vehicles. Bank of America does not finance vehicles purchased from independent dealers other than CarMax®, Hertz Car Sales®, Enterprise Car Sales and Carvana. All authorized dealers can be found using the dealer locator tool.
We also offer financing for lease buyouts, purchases from a private party, and refinances.
When you’re ready, you can apply on your mobile device, online at bankofamerica.com, on the phone or in a financial center.
You’ll then be able to check the status of your application and upload and electronically sign any documents needed to process your loan.
When applying online, make sure to check the box to agree to electronic delivery. Regardless of how you apply, many decisions only take sixty seconds.
We’ll contact you when the application review is complete.

You may see advertising about interest rates with an annual percentage rate (or APR) with “rates as low as.” The only way to truly know your rate is to complete an application.
If approved, there are many factors, such as state of residence, loan amount and term, credit history and the type of vehicle that may cause your actual APR to differ from the advertised rate.

Qualified discounts can also adjust your APR. If you are eligible for Bank of America’s Preferred Rewards program, make sure to enroll before you apply for auto financing.
