“This partnership means a lot to me on a personal level. I was a Macc FC fan growing up and have great memories of watching the Silkmen back in the 1990s, so becoming an official partner of the Club years later is a proud moment. Since James and I took over Jigsaw, Macclesfield has become home for the business, and there’s no side we’d rather be getting behind. We’re looking forward to getting started and supporting the Club right through the season ahead.”

”I would like to welcome Jigsaw Finance to the Football Club and thank them for the superb commitment that they have shown in agreeing this partnership. I would particularly like to thank Alex Hurst for his role in this and look forward to seeing our relationship evolve over the course of the season.”

The growth has been driven by investment in technology, operations and dealer relationships, alongside the expansion of our dealer network across the UK.

A key part of that investment has been the development of Artis, Jigsaw Finance’s proprietary technology platform.

Artis connects dealerships with a broad panel of lenders and key industry systems, helping make the vehicle finance process quicker and more efficient for dealers and customers.

You can learn more about How We Work and the approach behind our technology and operations here.

Founded in 2000, we’ve spent more than 25 years helping dealers offer vehicle finance to their customers through Jigsaw Finance’s Dealer Finance Products.

Today, we work with a nationwide network of dealerships alongside a growing Consumer Vehicle Products channel, helping customers access finance across a broad range of circumstances and vehicle types.

While the business has grown significantly, our focus remains the same: delivering high service standards, building long-term relationships and making vehicle finance straightforward for dealers and customers alike.

Commenting on the milestone, co-owner of Jigsaw Finance Alex Hurst said:

“Growth has come from focusing on the fundamentals. We’ve invested in technology, strengthened our relationships with dealers and lenders and built the operational capability needed to scale.

“Being recognised in the Sunday Times 100 reflects the hard work, commitment and expertise of our team over the last few years. It’s an important milestone for us, but our focus remains firmly on building on that momentum and continuing to grow.”

Many brokers rely on third-party systems, whereas we’ve invested heavily in our own platform and the infrastructure behind it.

James Weir, co-owner of Jigsaw Finance, added:

“Artis gives us greater control over the customer and dealer journey, helping us process applications more efficiently, improve approval outcomes and support our dealer partners at scale.

“We see significant opportunities ahead. We’ll continue investing in technology, people and operations to strengthen our position in the market.”

As Jigsaw Finance continues to grow, we remain focused on investing in technology, operational capability and dealer relationships to support the next stage of our development.

Trade2Trade gives dealers access to a trusted network for buying and selling stock. Through its platform and community, including its widely used Facebook groups and custom-built application, dealers can source vehicles quickly through a platform they know and trust. It’s built around speed and simplicity and it’s become a regular part of how many independent dealers operate day to day.

Jigsaw Finance is a respected motor finance broker with more than 25 years of experience helping independent dealers offer finance to their customers. With access to a broad panel of lenders and a personal, hands-on approach, Jigsaw gives dealers more options and the support to use them, without the stress or complexity that often puts smaller dealers off engaging with finance properly.

Through the partnership, Jigsaw Finance will have a direct presence across Trade2Trade’s channels – including the platform itself – making it easier for dealers to find and engage with both businesses as part of how they already work.

“We’re delighted to be partnering with Trade2Trade and bringing our finance tools, lender panel and dealer support closer to dealers who are already active on the platform. We’ve spent years building a service designed to help dealers move quickly and efficiently, so this is a natural step that should help streamline the process and make access to finance even easier.”
Danny Belks – Head of Business Development – Jigsaw Finance

Trade2Trade has always been focused on the practical realities of running an independent dealership. Its platform and community are designed around speed, trusted connections, and keeping stock moving without unnecessary process getting in the way. It’s built for dealers who are active in the market every day.

Jigsaw Finance approaches motor finance the same way – personal, hands-on, and focused on getting deals sorted quickly and efficiently. Whilst compliance is ultimately a shared responsibility between broker and dealer, Jigsaw works closely with dealers to help them navigate it without it becoming a headache.

“Trade2Trade has always been about helping dealers stay active in the market and moving stock efficiently. Bringing Jigsaw Finance into that environment gives dealers a practical option when they need it. It’s about making sure that when an opportunity is there, it can be turned into a completed sale.”
James Vaughn, CEO – Trade2Trade

Jigsaw Finance will be visible across Trade2Trade’s platform and dealer communications, giving dealers direct access to the finance tools, lender panel and support at the point they are sourcing and moving stock.

It also gives dealers clearer visibility of how finance could stack up on potential purchases, helping them assess deals with pricing in mind before committing to stock.

Both businesses remain independent and focused on what they do best. This simply brings them closer together in the places dealers are already working. In practical terms, it removes a layer of friction. Dealers can move from sourcing a vehicle to structuring the finance more quickly, with the right support available when it is needed.
