Our sustainability approach is continuously evolving, ensuring our values are reflected in everything we do – we are committed to driving positive change and giving back to the community.
Going paper free

We can’t show you everything in MyFinance yet. So, for now, depending on your agreement with us, we may still send you some notices in the post.
Peace of mind, knowing your statements and notices are safely stored online.
- Reduce paper waste.
- Get an email when there’s a new document or notice to look at.
- Download and print your statements and notices when you want.
- Easy access to your accounts from wherever you are.
The easiest way to go paper-free is to register for MyFinance. When you register, you’ll automatically be set to paper-free.
You can change your preference at any time:

We are part of the Santander Group and are aligned with their sustainability plans and goals – click below to find out more:
As well as developing our approach to sustainability with the wider Group, Santander Consumer Finance are increasingly creating our own independent targets and initiatives. Our response to climate change has been developing over recent years and we continue to explore how we can best support the green transition. Some of our most impactful activities to date include:
Supporting our communities through our Charity, Sport & Social Committee and Big Build initiative for nearly 15 years, with the goal of giving back and supporting a variety of valuable causes.
Providing our colleagues, customers and dealer partners with the option to calculate individual carbon footprints.
Forming our Climate and Sustainability Forum with senior representatives, providing structure and governance for our sustainability goals, led by our Sustainability Manager.
Launching our Green Dashboard, allowing the internal monitoring of green vehicle finance against the internal targets we have set. Green vehicles are those with emissions of less than 50g/km of CO2, including electric and hybrid vehicles.
Partnering with Net Zero Group and designing and delivering Climate Awareness training to our dealer partners.
The Santander Group is committed to achieving Net Zero by 2050 and within Santander Consumer Finance, we are developing targets and plans to significantly reduce our financed emissions by 2030.
