Terms & Conditions

Last Updated: October 2026

Welcome to First Nation Approval. These Terms & Conditions govern your access to and use of this website, including any forms, financing requests, vehicle listings, promotional offers, advertisements, communications, and other services made available through this website.

By accessing this website, submitting information, requesting financing, requesting information about a vehicle, or otherwise using this website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms & Conditions.

If you do not agree with these Terms & Conditions, please do not use this website or submit an application.

1. About First Nation Approval

First Nation Approval is a vehicle financing and lead generation platform that works with participating automotive dealerships, lenders, financing providers, and other automotive partners.

First Nation Approval does not itself guarantee that any applicant will receive financing, a vehicle purchase approval, a particular interest rate, a particular payment, a particular vehicle, or any promotional benefit.

Depending on the application and transaction, your information may be provided to one or more participating dealerships, lenders, financial institutions, financing partners, and other service providers involved in evaluating or completing your vehicle financing request.

The dealership that ultimately sells or leases a vehicle to you may be a separate legal entity from First Nation Approval.

Where a specific dealership is identified in an advertisement, website page, vehicle listing, or promotional material, that dealership may be responsible for the sale of the vehicle and the applicable dealership transaction.

2. Dealer Identification and Advertising

Vehicle advertisements and dealership advertising may be made on behalf of, or in connection with, participating licensed motor vehicle dealers.

Where applicable, the advertising or website will identify the responsible dealer using the dealer's registered business name and dealer registration number as required by applicable British Columbia law and Vehicle Sales Authority requirements.

The dealer identification displayed on an advertisement or website identifies the licensed dealer responsible for the applicable dealership advertising.

First Nation Approval may provide marketing, lead generation, advertising, financing assistance, technology, or other services to participating dealerships.

Nothing on this website should be interpreted as stating that First Nation Approval itself is the seller of every vehicle displayed on this website.

3. Vehicle Inventory and Availability

Vehicle information displayed on this website may include new, used, pre owned, ex rental, fleet, lease return, repossessed, previously financed, trade in, or other vehicles made available through participating dealerships or their inventory networks.

Vehicle availability can change rapidly.

A vehicle displayed on this website may be sold, reserved, transferred, unavailable, or otherwise removed from inventory before or after you submit an inquiry.

Submitting an inquiry does not reserve or purchase a vehicle.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing by the applicable dealership, a vehicle is not reserved until the dealership confirms the reservation.

Vehicle photographs may be representative photographs and may not always reflect the exact vehicle currently available.

Vehicle equipment, mileage, condition, colour, features, trim, history, availability, and other specifications should be independently confirmed with the applicable dealership before purchase.

4. Previous Use and Vehicle History

Certain vehicles advertised through this website may have previously been used as rental vehicles, fleet vehicles, lease vehicles, demonstration vehicles, service vehicles, trade ins, or other types of commercial or personal-use vehicles.

Where applicable, previous use and material vehicle history will be disclosed in accordance with applicable law and dealership disclosure requirements.

Vehicle history reports may be available for certain vehicles.

A vehicle history report may contain information relating to accidents, claims, registrations, previous use, liens, service history, odometer information, importation, or other events.

A vehicle history report is not a guarantee that a vehicle has never been damaged, repaired, modified, or involved in an event that does not appear in the report.

Customers should review the applicable vehicle history report and obtain any additional inspection or information they consider appropriate before completing a purchase.

5. Vehicle Pricing

Any price displayed on this website or in advertising is subject to the terms and conditions stated with the applicable advertisement.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, advertised prices may not include applicable taxes, licensing, registration, insurance, financing charges, optional products, optional services, or other amounts that may legally be payable in connection with a vehicle transaction.

Where British Columbia law requires a dealer to advertise or display a particular total price or otherwise disclose fees or charges, the applicable dealership is responsible for complying with those requirements.

Vehicle pricing may change without notice where permitted by law.

An online inquiry or submission does not constitute an offer to purchase a vehicle at the advertised price.

The final transaction price and applicable terms must be confirmed with the selling dealership before purchase.

6. Savings and Promotional Claims

Advertisements may describe potential savings, discounts, rebates, bonuses, incentives, or other promotional opportunities.

Savings amounts, rebates, bonuses, incentives, and promotional offers may vary depending on the vehicle, lender, dealership, financing approval, customer eligibility, purchase structure, and other conditions.

Any stated savings should not be interpreted as a guarantee that every customer will receive the stated amount.

Where a promotional offer has specific eligibility requirements, those requirements apply.

Promotional offers may be subject to availability, eligibility, expiry dates, lender approval, dealership participation, and other conditions.

7. No Guarantee of Financing Approval

Submitting a financing application or request does not guarantee financing approval.

Financing decisions are made by participating lenders, financial institutions, or dealership finance departments based on their own underwriting policies and applicable law.

Approval may depend on factors including, but not limited to:

  • Credit history and credit profile
  • Income
  • Employment
  • Length of employment
  • Debt obligations
  • Down payment
  • Vehicle value
  • Vehicle age and mileage
  • Loan amount
  • Loan term
  • Residency and identification
  • Lender requirements
  • Verification documents
  • Other underwriting criteria

A customer may be declined, approved with conditions, approved for a different amount, or offered different financing terms than initially requested.

8. No Guarantee of Interest Rate or Payment

Any interest rate, monthly payment, biweekly payment, down payment, term, or financing example displayed on this website or in advertising is for informational purposes unless expressly confirmed in writing by the applicable lender or dealership.

Your final interest rate, payment, loan amount, term, and financing conditions may differ from any example shown.

Approval does not guarantee the lowest available interest rate.

9. Credit Information and Authorization

By submitting a financing application, you voluntarily authorize First Nation Approval and applicable participating dealerships, lenders, financial institutions, financing partners, and service providers involved in processing your request to collect, use, verify, and disclose your personal information for legitimate purposes related to your financing request, subject to applicable privacy law.

This may include obtaining and reviewing information from consumer reporting agencies such as Equifax Canada Co. and TransUnion of Canada.

Depending on the financing process and the requirements of the applicable lender, credit information may be obtained for pre qualification, verification, underwriting, financing approval, fraud prevention, identity verification, or other legitimate financing purposes.

10. Soft and Hard Credit Inquiries

Depending on the lender and financing process, a soft credit inquiry may be performed for pre qualification or preliminary assessment.

A soft inquiry generally does not affect your credit score.

If you proceed with a formal financing application, one or more participating lenders may perform a hard credit inquiry as part of their underwriting process.

A hard credit inquiry may appear on your credit file and may affect your credit score.

By submitting a financing application, you understand that the financing process may involve one or more credit inquiries where permitted by applicable law and required by the participating lender.

We do not guarantee that a lender will use a soft inquiry, and we do not guarantee that a particular lender will perform only one credit inquiry.

11. Verification of Information

You authorize applicable participating parties, where permitted by law, to verify information provided in your application.

Verification may include:

  • Identity
  • Employment
  • Income
  • Address
  • Residency
  • Identification documents
  • Credit information
  • Vehicle information
  • Financing information
  • Fraud prevention information
  • Other information reasonably required to process your financing request

Verification may involve contacting you, your employer, financial institutions, lenders, dealerships, or other appropriate sources.

You agree to provide accurate and complete information and to provide reasonable supporting documentation when requested.

12. Accuracy of Information Provided by You

You represent that all information submitted through this website is accurate, complete, current, and truthful to the best of your knowledge.

You must not provide false, misleading, fraudulent, altered, or incomplete information.

Providing inaccurate information may result in the application being declined, delayed, cancelled, or referred for additional verification.

We reserve the right to reject or discontinue an application where information cannot reasonably be verified or where fraud, misrepresentation, identity concerns, or other suspicious activity is suspected.

13. Income and Employment Verification

Where income or employment information is used in connection with a financing request, the information may be independently verified.

You authorize participating lenders, dealerships, and financing partners, where legally permitted, to request reasonable documentation supporting income and employment information.

Examples may include pay statements, bank statements, employment information, notices of assessment, tax documents, or other documentation reasonably required by a lender.

Submission of income information does not guarantee that the lender will accept the income for financing purposes.

14. Identity and Fraud Prevention

We may use reasonable identity verification and fraud prevention procedures to protect customers, dealerships, lenders, and other parties.

These procedures may include verification of government issued identification, driver's licence information, contact information, application information, device or technical information, and other information permitted by applicable law.

Applications may be delayed, declined, suspended, or referred for additional verification where information cannot be reasonably verified or where fraud or other suspicious activity is suspected.

15. Authorization to Share Information

By submitting an application, you authorize First Nation Approval to share information reasonably necessary to process your request with participating dealerships, lenders, financial institutions, financing providers, automotive partners, technology providers, service providers, and other parties involved in providing the requested service, subject to applicable privacy laws.

Information may be shared for purposes including:

  • Processing your vehicle financing request
  • Contacting you regarding your application
  • Obtaining financing decisions
  • Verifying identity, income, and employment
  • Obtaining credit information
  • Matching you with available vehicles
  • Communicating vehicle availability
  • Processing a vehicle purchase or financing transaction
  • Fraud prevention
  • Compliance with legal requirements
  • Providing requested customer service

We will not use or disclose personal information for purposes beyond those permitted by applicable law and our Privacy Policy.

16. Privacy and Personal Information

Your privacy is important to us.

Personal information collected through this website may include information such as your name, contact information, address, employment information, income information, identification information, credit information, vehicle preferences, and other information you voluntarily provide.

Personal information will be collected, used, disclosed, retained, and safeguarded in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy legislation and our Privacy Policy.

Depending on the province or territory in which you reside and the circumstances of the transaction, different privacy legislation may apply.

You should review our Privacy Policy for detailed information about our privacy practices.

Canadian privacy regulators emphasize that consent should be meaningful and that individuals should understand what personal information is collected, why it is collected, and with whom it may be shared.

17. Electronic Communications

By submitting your information and requesting information through this website, you authorize us and applicable participating dealerships, lenders, and financing partners to contact you regarding your request using the contact information you provide.

Communications may occur by:

  • Telephone
  • Email
  • SMS or text message
  • Other electronic communication methods reasonably related to your request

Message and data rates may apply.

You may opt out of SMS marketing communications by replying STOP where supported.

Opting out of marketing communications may not prevent communications that are necessary to complete or service a transaction, financing application, appointment, or other requested service.

18. Telephone Calls

You understand that representatives of First Nation Approval, participating dealerships, lenders, or financing partners may contact you by telephone regarding your request.

Calls may be made for purposes including application follow up, financing discussions, vehicle availability, appointment scheduling, identity verification, and customer service.

Where legally permitted, calls may be recorded or monitored for quality assurance, training, security, compliance, or dispute resolution purposes.

19. Consent to Electronic Documents

Where permitted by law, you consent to receiving documents, notices, disclosures, agreements, communications, and other information electronically.

You may be required to provide a valid email address or other electronic contact information for this purpose.

Certain documents may still be required to be delivered in another manner where required by law or by a lender or dealership.

20. Promotional Bonuses and Incentives

Any bonus, cashback, gift, rebate, incentive, promotional payment, or other benefit advertised through this website is subject to eligibility requirements and applicable terms.

Eligibility may depend on factors including financing approval, vehicle purchase, lender participation, dealership participation, residency, vehicle eligibility, promotional period, and completion of required documentation.

A promotional benefit is not guaranteed merely because an individual submits an application.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, promotional benefits cannot be combined with every other offer.

We reserve the right to correct typographical errors and to modify or withdraw promotional offers where permitted by law.

21. Indigenous and First Nations Programs

Certain programs advertised through this website may be specifically intended for eligible First Nations, Status Card holders, Indigenous customers, or other qualifying applicants.

Eligibility requirements vary by program, lender, dealership, province, vehicle, and individual circumstances.

Eligibility for a particular program does not guarantee financing approval or a particular vehicle, price, interest rate, rebate, tax treatment, or other benefit.

Where a tax exemption or other government benefit is referenced, the customer remains responsible for satisfying the applicable legal requirements.

The applicable dealership and transaction documentation will determine whether a particular exemption or benefit applies.

22. Taxes and Tax Exemptions

Any reference to tax savings, tax exemptions, reduced taxes, or $0 tax pricing is subject to applicable law and customer eligibility.

A customer should not assume that a tax exemption applies solely because the customer submitted an application or contacted First Nation Approval.

The applicable dealership will determine the taxes and exemptions applicable to the final transaction based on the customer's circumstances, documentation, vehicle, transaction structure, and applicable law.

23. Vehicle Condition

Used vehicles may have normal wear and tear consistent with their age, mileage, prior use, and condition.

Vehicles may have previously been used as rental, fleet, lease, demonstration, commercial, or personal vehicles.

Vehicle descriptions and photographs are provided for general informational purposes and should be independently verified.

Customers are encouraged to inspect the vehicle, review available vehicle history documentation, ask questions regarding condition, and obtain an independent inspection where appropriate before completing a purchase.

24. Vehicle History and Disclosure

Vehicle history information may come from dealerships, vehicle history reporting services, manufacturers, insurers, government sources, auction records, or other third party sources.

Although reasonable efforts may be made to provide accurate information, historical information may contain errors, omissions, delays, or information that is unavailable to us.

The absence of information from a vehicle history report does not necessarily mean that an event did not occur.

The applicable dealership is responsible for completing legally required vehicle disclosures and transaction documentation.

25. Third Party Dealerships and Lenders

First Nation Approval may introduce or connect customers with independent dealerships, lenders, financial institutions, and financing providers.

Those third parties may have their own:

  • Terms and conditions

  • Products and services
  • Vehicle inventory
  • Contracts
  • Cancellation policies

Customers should carefully review the documents provided by the applicable dealership or lender before signing.

26. No Guarantee of Vehicle Availability

Displaying a vehicle on this website does not guarantee that the vehicle remains available.

Inventory may change at any time.

A vehicle may be sold, transferred, reserved, withdrawn, or become unavailable without notice.

Where an advertisement relates to a specific vehicle, the applicable dealership should be contacted to confirm current availability.

27. Website Information
