What We Do

We first started as a used car selling platform where we help customers sell their used cars through a trusted, convenient and fast process.

This simple process starts with booking an appointment online. Our extensive 175-point inspection process is free and takes only 30 minutes at a CARSOME Inspection Center.

Our highly-trained inspectors are well-equipped to provide a complete car condition report before an on-the-spot offer is given. After the sale is confirmed, all paperwork will be handled by us.

From car inspection, ownership transfer, to easy financing, selling a car becomes hassle-free. CARSOME eliminates the pain points in the traditional used car selling process, offering effective solutions to consumers.

In August 2021, we launched ‘The New Way of Buying Cars’, a brand-new service that offers consumers a seamless car buying experience. Consumers can start their buy car journey by clicking on the Buy Car tab on our website or app, and they can browse for their dream cars to fit their lifestyle. All CARSOME cars have a 360-degree view of the car’s interior and exterior, a list of the current imperfections, a professional reconditioning report, as well as a fixed price with no hidden fees. Booking a test drive can be easily done anytime and anywhere on the website or app. To give consumers assurance and peace of mind, all CARSOME Certified cars are quality assured, and come with a fixed price with no hidden fees, 2-year warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee.
