Manage promo rates and promotional programs

Promo rates reduce the loan interest rate for a defined period. Use Set promo rate to add a promotional rate, Remove promo rate to delete one, and Manage promotions to update or cancel promotional programs (such as Same-As-Cash offers). Setting a promo rate with a past effective date triggers an account replay.

Before you begin

  • A promo rate reduces the effective interest rate by the promo amount. For example, if the loan rate is 20.3% and a promo rate of 2% is applied, the net rate during the promo period is 18.3%.
  • If two rates overlap on the same dates, the system uses the lower rate.
  • Rates labeled "At origination" were set at loan creation and cannot be removed.

Set a promo rate

  1. From the agent-view Borrower Portal, open the loan and select Loan options > Set promo rate.
  2. For Line of Credit loans, select the scope from the Applicable to dropdown. See Global behaviors — Applicable-to selector.
  3. Review the current rates list displayed on the form.
  4. Enter the New rate (annual) as a percentage (0–9999.99).
  5. Select a Start date. The date can be in the past, today, or in the future. The minimum is the loan start date and the maximum is the last scheduled payment date.
  6. Optionally select an End date, or choose End of loan. The end date must be at least one day after the start date.

    • Modify the Promo end date and Promo grace period in days as needed.
  6. If your company requires a Case ID, select a case from the Case ID dropdown.
