How is interest calculated on personal loans?
We calculate interest daily using the simple interest method. In other words, from the date of the last payment until the date of the current payment, we compute interest on the outstanding principal balance.
How are payments applied?
We first settle the interest that has accumulated since the date of your previous payment whenever we receive a payment. The remaining amount goes toward your principal balance. Therefore, if you pay more than the minimum amount required, the extra money gets applied as a partial payment toward the next regular payment and lowers the loan balance.
