Frequently asked questions
What is a revolving loan?

A revolving loan is a continuous line of credit that gives you access to money whenever you need it without having to reapply for credit.

How do I settle my loan?

To settle a revolving credit plan, you can request a settlement letter to obtain the balance that needs to be paid off. You can then manually transfer the full balance into the loan account via the Banking App, Online Banking, or a banker. For the revolving loan to stay settled, the loan will need to be closed.

What is the difference between a revolving loan and a credit card?

Both are forms of revolving credit, but they serve different purposes and have distinct features. A revolving loan typically offers a larger credit limit, making it suitable for significant expenses like home improvements, buying a second-hand car or debt consolidation.

On the other hand, a credit card is designed for everyday purchases and offers benefits such as travel insurance and flight discounts.
