About MONIKR
A team of DVLA certified plate specialists building the UK's most transparent number plate marketplace. As a DVLA certified dealer we buy DVLA registrations on your behalf and handle the paperwork.
Our Story
MONIKR was born from a simple frustration: buying a personalised number plate in the UK shouldn't feel like guesswork. Too many dealers rely on inflated price tags, hidden fees, and gut-feel valuations. We knew there was a better way.
With years of experience in the private plate market, we've built MONIKR to bring genuine transparency to every transaction. We've analysed over 194,000 historical DVLA auction records spanning 36 years, scored every plate in the DVLA inventory, and made all of that data available to our customers — because informed buyers make confident decisions.
What Sets Us Apart
DVLA Certified Dealers
We buy DVLA registrations on your behalf and handle the paperwork, from the purchase itself to the V750 certificate or assignment to your vehicle.
Data-Driven Valuations
Our proprietary MONIKR Score analyses each plate across 9 weighted factors — readability, word matches, name recognition, format rarity, and more — so you can instantly gauge a plate's desirability and market value.
36 Years of Auction Data
We maintain the UK's most comprehensive database of DVLA auction results. This gives you comparable sales data, price trends, and evidence-backed valuations — not guesswork.
Transparent, All-Inclusive Pricing
Our prices include the DVLA transfer fee and all admin costs. No hidden charges, no surprise invoices. The price you see is the price you pay.
