Payment Schedule

...

Define how the payments are calculated.

...

The following settings can be defined:

Loan Type

The Loan Type will affect the general approach used for the payment calculation. The available types include:

  • Annuity (installment based): Equal payments are made in each installment.

  • Annuity (daily based): Equal payments are made in each installment with daily interest calculations.

  • Payday loan: Features decreasing interest and a fixed principal amount.

  • Classic: Payments decrease over time due to the reducing interest.

  • Bullet: Principal is paid in full at the last installment.

  • Flat: Interest remains constant throughout the loan term.

  • Leasing: Generates a lease schedule with equal installment payments.

  • Rule of 78: Front-loads interest payments, with more interest paid upfront and less towards the end of the term.

Repayment period

Choose the frequency of repayments. The installment schedule will be built based on this repayment period.

  • Daily - repayment once a day.

  • Weekly - repayment once a week.

  • Bi-weekly - repayment once in two weeks.

  • Semi-Monthly - repayment twice a month.

  • Monthly - repayment once a month.

  • Bi-monthly - repayment once in two months.

Late grace days

Specify the number of grace days allowed for late payments.

As long as an installment is the “Late grace days” past-due, no past-due fees are accrued. If the debt is not repaid within the “Late grace days” period - the following day the system applies the whole past due fees for all days past due. Set the Late Grace Days value to 0 to disable this feature.

Customizable Equal Payments

...

When customizable equal payments are chosen, you can allow your employees (Back-Office Users) and/or Customers to specify the basic installment amount.

...

  • Every “repayment period” the “equal payment” is charged from the Customer. The rest of the amount to be repaid is charged with the last installment.

  • If enabled, Back-Office Users and/or Customers change the equal amount. The payments will be recalculated correspondingly.

...

Interest Settings

...

You can go on to define the interest that will be applied to all loans with this Credit Product.

...

  • Should the installment be paid off earlier, the interest may vary (subject to other settings of the Credit Product).

  • If the loan term is prolonged - the interest will be applied to the new loan period.

  • If the loan is paid off early - the interest may vary (subject to other settings of the Credit Product).

Variable Interest

Check the “Use variable interest rate” box to make the interest value variable.

...

  • The value defined in the “Interest” field (“4” in the example above) is the default interest assigned to the Loans of this Credit Product.

  • Min interest rate (“0” in the example above) and Max interest rate (“15” in the example above) are the limits to the interest that can be defined by the authorized users (“Who can edit the fee”)

Calculation Basis

...

If the Interest is calculated as a rate or percent, it can be calculated based on:

  • Remaining principal: Decreased when part of the principal is paid off. Does not depend on the fees.

  • Loan amount: stays the same throughout the loan term.

  • Installment balance: The amount due for the specific installment, including all the fees accrued during this installment.

Loan Phase

...

Define if the interest shall be included in the Grace period if the Grace Period is defined for the loan.

Please note that the Grace period is not related to the “Grace days”. The Grace period is one or several installment(s) that can take place at the start of the Loan Term or before the Loan Term - for which dedicated fee and interest rules can be defined.
