In the application process, you agree on the size and schedule of the repayments for paying back your loan. However, you can easily change your repayment plan on op.fi (in Finnish or Swedish) without any extra charges. If your situation changes, you can change the amount of each repayment and the due date and set a grace month.

Cost of the credit
Special Consumer Credit is subject to a monthly loan servicing fee of 6 euros (covers the credit establishment fee and invoicing). The credit interest rate is the 3-month Euribor + 7.95 percentage points (7,4 % 1/21). The monthly repayment depends on the loan amount and loan term. You can choose 1st, 8th, 16th or 24th of the month as the due date.
Credit terminates when the last instalment has been paid.
Special Consumer Credit is a one-off loan whose whose effective annual interest rate for a 10,000 credit with a 5-year repayment period is 9,01 % when the credit interest rate is the 3-month Euribor + 7,95 % (7,4 % 1/21) and the loan servicing fee is 6 euros per month. The estimated total amount payable is 12 341,01 euros. The calculation is based on the assumption that the entire credit has been drawn down, the credit interest rate, fees and charges are constant through the credit period, and the credit is repaid in the minimum repayments of 206,9 euros. The credit is extended by OP Retail Customers plc.
