Safe, simple & free checkout for any private party car sale

We've been working on Caramel for all of 2022, and are so excited to have just launched!

If you've ever bought or sold a car privately, you know how much of a pain the process is. There's the back and forth negotiation over email or text. Then there's the nerve-wracking moment where you meet a stranger at their house or in a parking lot to exchange cash for keys. Finally, there's all the research to find the appropriate DMV forms to transfer the title and do registration.

Caramel is going to change all of that. We're the simple, safe, & free checkout platform for buying or selling any private party car.

Compatible with any private sale Caramel is not a marketplace or car listing site. That means buyers can find a car anywhere and sellers can advertise their car for sale anywhere. Popular sites where buyers & sellers find each other before using Caramel to checkout include: Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Bring a Trailer, OfferUp, Autotrader, CarGurus, Cars & Bids, and many more.

Goodbye DMV line We handle all title & paperwork, saving buyers & sellers headaches & hours at the DMV.

Never send cash or wires to a stranger Payment is digital, secure, & traceable. We hold money in escrow until the car & title are delivered, so buyers know they’ll get what they’ve paid for & sellers know they’ll get paid fast.

Everyone’s verified, even the cars With multiple layers of identity verification technology & biometrics, we authenticate each buyer & seller. Once verified, buyers & sellers view premium third-party vehicle history and specification reports.

No pressure, lots of options Buyers can add financing, vehicle protection, insurance, & delivery in a tap or click.

Free to use There’s no cost to use Caramel for either buyers or sellers.
