Skootpay

The UK's first, safe and secure way for two private individuals to buy and sell a car

02/10/2026

You spend months finding the right car. Don’t leave the payment to the last five minutes.

Skoot is powering the Scramble Members’ Ballot this Sunday, and we’ll be at Bicester talking to buyers and sellers about getting the payment and paperwork sorted before handover.

For a private car sale, Skoot verifies buyer and seller, checks the vehicle details, prepares the digital contract and receipt, and the buyer puts the agreed purchase price in place with Skoot before handover.

So when you meet, you’re ready to complete the sale rather than work out how to move thousands of pounds.

£75 each for buyer and seller. No completed transaction, no fee.

If you’re at the Scramble on Sunday, come and meet us.

Skoot helps buyers and sellers handle the payment and paperwork needed to complete a private car sale.

It’s built for when you’ve already found your buyer or seller and agreed on the price. From there, Skoot takes the risk out of the transfer—verifying identity and securing the payment so both sides can exchange keys without stress.

You find the car. We take care of the rest to get your deal safely across the finish line.

Agreed the car and the price? That’s where Skoot comes in. 🚗

Skoot is designed for the next stage of a private vehicle sale, helping the buyer and seller complete the payment and handover through a clear, secure process.

Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Buyer and seller join the Skoot transaction.

2️⃣ The buyer transfers the agreed payment to Skoot before collection, where it is securely held.

3️⃣ Buyer and seller meet and complete the vehicle handover.

4️⃣ Both parties complete the transaction and the payment is released to the seller.

You find the car.
You agree the deal.
Skoot helps you complete it securely.

Don’t risk it. Skoot it.

When a private car sale is agreed over messages, the details can easily end up scattered across chats and emails.

With Skoot, buyer and seller complete identity verification, the agreed vehicle and sale details are recorded in a digital contract, and the payment is handled through the same transaction rather than separately by bank transfer.

Once complete, both parties have a clear record of the sale.

Don’t risk it. Skoot it.

✓ The payment is held securely before handover
✓ Eligible deposits are protected by the FSCS up to £120,000
✓ Payment is released once the buyer and seller complete and confirm the handover
✓ The seller does not need to send their bank details directly to the buyer

Seeing “payment sent” on a screen isn’t the same as being ready to hand over the keys.

A bank transfer moves money from one account to another. It does not check who you are dealing with, prepare the sales paperwork or help both sides agree when the car should be handed over.

With Skoot, identities are checked, the buyer places the payment with Skoot before collection day, and both parties receive a digital sales contract and receipt.

So the seller knows the money is ready before handing over the car, and the buyer has a clear record of what was agreed and paid.

A family car is rarely just about the car.

It’s about school runs, weekends away and all the journeys still to come.

But before any of that, there is the private sale itself: arranging the payment, completing the paperwork and deciding when it is safe to hand over the keys.

Skoot helps buyers and sellers prepare before collection day, with identity checks, payment with Skoot before handover, and a digital sales contract and receipt.

So both sides know what has been agreed, the money is ready and the sale can be completed properly.

Selling your car privately? The words "payment sent" don't always mean the transaction is ready to complete.

❌ MYTH: It's fine to hand over the car once they've "sent it."

✅ REALITY: A payment notification isn't the same as transaction certainty.

The handover is one of the most important moments in a private vehicle sale. Both buyer and seller need confidence that everything is in place before the keys change hands.

That’s where Skoot comes in.

Skoot helps buyers and sellers handle the payment and handover properly.

✔️ Payment is with Skoot before collection
✔️ Buyer and seller identities are checked
✔️ Each step is clear before handover
✔️ Funds are released when both sides confirm

Because private vehicle sales deserve more than a "payment sent" message.

The payment is only part of the transaction.

Don't risk it. Skoot it.

For many people, sending a bank transfer is simply the final step in buying or selling a vehicle privately.

But a bank transfer only moves the money.

It doesn't verify who you're dealing, have the buyer's payment ready at handover, give both parties clear steps to follow, create digital transaction records or give confidence that the funds will actually be received.

That's where Skoot is different.

Skoot helps buyers and sellers complete private car sales with:

✅ buyer and seller identity checks
✅ payment with Skoot before handover
✅ clear steps for both parties
✅ digital transaction records
✅ funds released when both sides confirm

Because buying or selling privately should not rely on a rushed bank transfer at collection.

It deserves a transaction process built around confidence and security.
