Fundlater repayments

You will be provided with a BPAY biller code and reference number to make your payments.

You will also receive email and text notifications when each instalment is due.

The minimum amount is $325 per month. You can pay your Fundlater non-recourse loan off quicker if you want.

It's important to always communicate with us if you cannot meet an instalment.

If you don't make one of your monthly payments of $325, we will send an email reminder on the 1st, 5th, and 9th days following the missed payment. 

If the payment has not been received 10 days after your monthly payment due date, InvestSMART may sell all securities within your portfolio. 

You will receive back the portfolio value minus the outstanding instalments.

If, for whatever reason, you will not be able to pay your instalment on the payment date, please contact us as soon as possible.

You can make multiple payments throughout the month as long as the total for the month adds up to or exceeds $325.

You have 20 months (20 instalments of $325) from your account opening date. You can pay off your loan earlier.

When you make your final Fundlater repayment, your Fundlater loan is discharged.

Your InvestSMART PMA becomes a standard, regular investment account. This means you can change portfolios along with many other features. See Using my PMA in the Help Centre for assistance with these features.

You can continue to make regular payments to the same Bpay number, and we'll automatically add these to your portfolio. You also have the option to top-up your Fundlater loan, and request an additional $6,000 non-recourse loan.
