What others are asking about our car loans 

What’s a balloon payment?

A balloon payment is a lump sum due at the end of your loan term. By deferring part of the loan to the end, regular repayments during the loan term can be lower. Keep in mind however that interest is still charged on the balloon amount throughout the loan term, and the final payment will need to be paid (cash deposit or refinance) to close the existing contract.   Want to know more? Check out our guide on car loan balloon repayments.

How do balloon payments work?

Here’s how they work:

  • You choose a balloon amount, often expressed as a percentage of the loan amount, subject to eligibility and lender limits.
  • Your monthly repayments are calculated without including the principal amount but interest will be included, so they’re generally lower during the loan term.
  • At the end of the loan, you pay the balloon in one lump sum by depositing cash or by refinancing.
