How to reduce stress about making your vehicle payments on time

Financing a vehicle is a big commitment.

In most cases, it’s one of the largest financial obligations people have, second only to a home mortgage or, perhaps, student loans.

Santander Consumer USA (SC) wants to make it as easy as possible for you to figure out how to reduce stress about making car payments on time, offering a variety of payment methods that enable you to find one that fits your needs.

This includes several FREE options that allow you to avoid service fees.

The easiest free payment option is Auto Pay, with funds deducted automatically from your personal checking or savings account and credited to your SC account by the due date. That way you won’t have to worry about missing a payment or possible negative financial impact.

Other free payment methods include paying online 24/7, paying by phone using our interactive voice system and mailing your payment (see graphic below for more details).

We provide several other payment options that offer convenience but may include third-party fees.

The following graphic is a quick guide to all payment options – fast, secure and many of them free – that Santander Consumer USA offers our customers:
