When I first helped a client pay off their Kia early, they used the wrong mailing address, and their check was delayed for almost two weeks.
So in this guide, I’ll walk you through the exact steps to get your Kia Finance payoff quote, the right addresses to send payments, and some insider tips to avoid common mistakes.
What Is a Payoff Quote (and Why You Need It)
A payoff quote shows the exact amount you owe to settle your Kia auto loan in full, including the remaining principal, interest up to a specific date, and any small closing fees.
Think of it like your “final bill.” The number changes daily, so don’t rely on your last statement when you’re ready to pay off or trade in your vehicle.
How to Get Your Kia Finance Payoff Quote
1. Online (Fastest Way)
- Log in to your Kia Motors Finance account (official website).
- Go to “Account Summary” → “Payoff Quote.”
- Select your preferred payoff date (today, 10 days ahead, etc.).
- Download or print the payoff document for your records.
Tip from experience: Always check the “quote expiration date.” Kia quotes are usually valid for 10 calendar days.
2. By Phone (Best if You’re Selling or Trading In)
- Call Kia Finance Customer Service (number on your statement).
- Ask for your 10-day payoff quote.
- They’ll verify your account details and give you the amount + payoff address.
If you’re selling your car to a dealer or third-party, they can also request the quote directly, but confirm the lender received their fax/email to avoid delays.
Official Kia Finance Payoff Mailing Addresses
Your payoff address depends on how you’re sending the payment, standard mail vs. overnight courier.
Here’s how to do it safely:
1. Standard Mail Payoff Address
Use this if you’re mailing via regular postal service:
Kia Motors Finance
P.O. Box 650805
Dallas, TX 75265-0805
(Confirm this address with your statement before mailing, it may vary by region.)
Include:
- Your account number
- Payoff letter or statement stub
- Return address
Always keep your tracking number and proof of delivery.
2. Overnight Payoff Address
For express deliveries (FedEx, UPS, etc.), use:
Kia Motors Finance
1501 North Plano Road, Suite 100
Richardson, TX 75081
Phone: 1-800-333-4542
Pro tip: Write “Payoff Department” on the envelope to help it reach the correct team faster.
3. Payoff by Phone
If you prefer phone payment (using debit or checking account):
- Call the Kia Finance Payoff Phone Number on your billing statement.
- Verify the final payoff amount before authorizing payment.
- Keep the confirmation number for your records.
In my experience: phone payoffs are handy for last-minute transactions (like dealer trade-ins) but can include a small convenience fee.
After You Send the Payoff
Once Kia receives and posts your payment:
- They’ll mark your loan as “paid in full.”
- Your title/lien release will be processed (can take 10–20 days).
- If you paid via overnight or bank wire, confirm posting after 1 business day.
- Keep a copy of your payoff letter, it’s proof that the account is closed.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
| Mistake | Why It’s a Problem | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Sending payment to the wrong P.O. Box | It delays posting or returns your check. | Always use the address on your latest statement. |
| Forgetting your account number on check | Payment can’t be matched easily. | Write account number clearly in the memo line. |
| Mailing without tracking | You can’t verify delivery. | Always use certified or tracked mail. |
| Paying before verifying quote date | Interest calculation may differ. | Get a fresh 10-day quote. |
