Protect Your Number explained

Stay safe, smart and secure with Protect Your Number. This service helps you avoid scammers and nuisance callers - at no extra cost.

Here’s how it works:

1

When a seller creates an advert we give them a service called 'Protect Your Number'

2

The advert shows a unique Autotrader number, instead of the seller's own phone number

3

When a buyer calls, they get redirected to the seller - without seeing their personal number

Why should private sellers protect their number?

What does this mean for buyers?
