*Scratch Pay plans are available in 12 to 36 month terms, range in approved loan amounts from $200 to $10,000, and with annual percentage rates (APR) ranging from 0% to 36%, with the lowest rates for borrowers with exceptional credit profiles. Monthly payment amounts on plan will depend on the term length, amount financed, and APR. For example, a 12-month payment plan for $10,000 with 5.99% APR would have 12 monthly payments of $860.62 for a total repayment amount of $10,327.44. Signing for a plan means the borrower agrees to make all payments in full and on the scheduled due dates. A borrower may incur late fees for partial or late payments that may result in higher interest charges and repayment schedule. To obtain financing, a $15 down payment is required. Autopay enrollment is optional for 12-month, 24-month, and 36-month plans. Refunds are given for unused plans.
