You have the option to buy out the car at any time for the buy-out price, which decreases every month.
Why choose Planet42
Choose the car you want
You find the car, we finance it. It’s that simple. Just find the used car that’s perfect for you and contact the dealership. Then they’ll organise your financing application with us.
One simple monthly payment
Once you sign the contract and get your car, you make one monthly payment to us, which includes insurance and a tracker device.
Buy-out option
You can buy the car from us outright at any point – the buy-out price decreases every month.
We believe in you
Many banks don’t offer finance, even to qualified professionals with steady jobs. But we do.
Democratise mobility
– your ride, your journey
We want car ownership to be available to everyone in South Africa who can afford it, not just the fortunate few favoured by the banks. Find out more about what drives us to democratise mobility.
Planet42 is a completely new way to become a car owner. So what could owning a car give you?
- Access to employment

Democratise mobility – is our goal
We created Planet42 to enable more people in South Africa and beyond to get access to their own car.
So far, over 4,500 cars have been purchased from dealerships and rented them out to satisfied new car owners.
We have partnered with more than 550 dealerships in South Africa. This means that tens of thousands of vehicles are available for financing through Planet42. All you have to do is choose the one you like.
