What's Yendo?
The Yendo Card
Yendo is the credit card that's backed by the value of your car. You can use the equity you've accumulated in your car to tap into a new credit line of up to $10,000.
The Yendo card can provide access to credit for those who might not be able to qualify for other credit cards - all credit scores are welcome to apply.
There's no need to re-apply since it's a credit card and can provide you with on-going access to funds. If you need to pay a bill, make a one-time purchase, or you just want to have a credit card at your disposal "just in case", you can use your car's equity to provide you with access to funds when you need it.

What's vehicle equity?
You might be wondering what vehicle equity is and how you can use it with Yendo?
Well, vehicle equity is the portion of your car’s value that you fully own, after accounting for any outstanding loans or liens. If you own your car outright with no debt, your equity is 100%. If you still owe money on a loan, you can determine your equity by subtracting the remaining loan balance from the car’s current market value. Yendo takes this into account, along with other factors, to help determine your credit limit.
FAQs about Yendo
So, what's Yendo again?
- Yendo is a credit card, powered by Mastercard, that lets you use the equity in your car to access a credit line of up to $10,000. It works just like a credit card, spend anywhere Mastercard is accepted and you can even get access to a virtual card before your physical card is shipped to you
How does it work?
- Yendo looks at your car, the value of your car, your ability to pay, and other factors, so provide you with a credit line. The application process involves submitting your personal information like name, address and income as well as taking pictures of your car, to verify its condition, yourself and your ID and your cars title.
What if I'm making payments on my car?
- Don't worry, you can apply, and be approved for, the Yendo card even if you're still making payments. You'll need to digitally transfer your title during the application process. Keep in mind too, many of our customers who have the card and are making payments actually save on their monthly car payment after it's all said and done.
Why do you need my title?
- Your car is how we're able to provide you with an affordable credit card with limits that are often higher than other options like a credit card secured with a cash deposit. Yendo safely stores your title and will send it back to you promptly after you've paid off your balance and reached out to us to close your credit card. We know sometimes life happens and you need to close a card, but we do recommend keeping your cards open since the amount of credit you have access to can impact your credit score.

We will then release the title to you within 10 days of payoff - please note that there may be some situations outside of Yendo's control, such as DMV processing timelines, that could extend this timeframe.

While your official due date is 25 days after receipt of your previous monthly statement, you can pay off all or a portion of your balance in advance at any time. The best part?
