  • DMV Add-On* - Upon request, we’ll pay your annual DMV registration for your vehicle. We simply add the amount of your registration to your loan, giving you more financial flexibility. DMV Add-On won’t increase your payments, does not affect your interest rate, and there’s no charge for this service.
  • Select Your Payment Date - Pick the payment day that suits you best. If you change your mind later, no problem!
  • Choose Monthly or Bi-Weekly - To give you better monthly cash flow, you have the option to pay every other week or once a month.
  • Meet or Beat* - We’ll meet or beat your auto rate from another credit union or bank…or we will give you $50!
  • Skip-A-Payment* - There are two opportunities a year to possibly skip your loan payment!
    • Summer - If money is tight you can skip your auto loan payment once, between February and October, for a modest fee.
    • December - Need to free up some money for the Holidays? Our Holiday Skip-A-Payment is free, as our gift to you for being a member of Cabrillo.​
