How borrowing works locally

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments.

An application usually asks for identification, income evidence, banking details and a statement of obligations. A lender is free to set its own price below the legal ceiling, and it does so according to the risk it reads in the file.
