We’ve been making life more affordable for our UK customers since 1991.
We’re proud to be the UK’s largest second-hand retailer with affordable personal finance solutions that give our customers the freedom of choice.
Cash Converters started in Australia in 1984 and now there are over 700 stores worldwide. We have pioneered the buying and selling of pre-owned goods for almost four decades.
Our customers are at the heart of our business and we pride ourselves on helping our customers and lending support. Customer loyalty is at the core of our business. Visit one of our welcoming, community focused stores around the UK and you’ll find a wide selection of products on sale.
We work closely with the local and national police authorities and other key partners to help combat crime throughout our stores and help reduce the movement and handling of stolen goods.
