Auto Pay Interest Rate Reduction

Save yourself time and ensure your scheduled payments will be made on-time each month by setting up automatic payments. There is no need to rush to the mailbox each month or worry about logging in to make a manual payment online. It’s free to apply!

Enrolling in Auto Pay means we will automatically withdraw your monthly payment each month from a bank account you designate. This also provides an interest rate reduction benefit of 0.25% . Auto Pay saves time and saves you money by lowering your interest rate.

Keep in mind this reduction remains in effect while you are actively participating in the Auto Pay program. Please note:

  • During periods of deferment or forbearance, Auto Pay will not be in effect and you will not receive the 0.25% interest rate reduction during these periods. Auto Pay will resume at the end of your deferment or forbearance, as will the 0.25% interest rate reduction. You will receive a monthly payment reminder at least 21 days prior to your due date.

  • Auto Pay will be removed if three consecutive payments are returned due to insufficient funds, this will result the loss of the 0.25% interest rate reduction. (Other conditions may apply.)
