Credit Where Credit’s Due: A Win For ASF At The Credit Awards 2019

We are pleased to announce that we won Alternative Lender of the Year in the New Lender category at Credit Strategy’s Credit Awards 2019!

This year’s awards celebrated the 20th year the event has been held. The evening was hosted by comedian Jimmy Carr at Grosvenor House Hotel, London on the 16th May and saw winners such as Capita, Vodafone, Barclays and HSBC walk away with awards.

The winners were selected by a panel of judges who look to reward companies for their “hard work, innovative outlook and industry-shaping solutions”. Amongst the panel were specialists in the credit industry from Santander, Lloyds and Metro bank.

The award recognizes the growing popularity of the pay monthly option within the aftersales industry and how Bumper is leading the way with an exceptional product and service for OEM-franchises; independent garages and, ultimately, the customer.

James Jackson, CEO of Bumper stated, “A fantastic win for Bumper at an event as prestigious as the Credit Awards, particularly given how many great FinTech businesses there are in the UK right now. This award recognizes the work we do to empower car dealerships up and down the UK. We are proud to work with nearly 2,000 dealerships with the goal of becoming Europe’s largest aftersales finance provider over the next few years.”

This is Bumper’s second award this year and, hopefully, there are many more to come!
