OVO PayLater Installment Interest Calculation

The use of the OVO PayLater credit limit will be billed every month as of the 27th. If on that date the user cannot pay it, then it must be paid in installments before the 1st of the next month when it is due.

However, if the installment is late, it will be subject to interest of 0.1% per day. This will run continuously every day until your installments are paid off.

OVO PayLater Usage Fee

Because OVO is a fintech company, of course the services they provide are not free. Each transaction will be charged a service fee of a maximum of 5% of the transaction value. This fee can also change, depending on the performance of OVO PayLater users in paying their bills.

Unlike the use of a credit card, which is subject to an annual fee, fortunately, OVO PayLter does not have a monthly or annual fee. However, OVO still provides interest penalties for users who have not paid the bill until it is paid off where this fine is worth 0.1% of the remaining bill each day will be included in the next month’s bill.

Sample case,

You have a bill of Rp. 50,000, and the bill is not paid until the due date is calculated on every 1st. Congratulations the bill has not been paid or paid off, then you will get an interest of 0.1% per day. So if the bill is Rp. 50,000, then the interest is Rp. 50 every day.

If your loan is small, the interest may not be so pronounced, but if the amount of the bill reaches millions of rupiah, of course the interest that must be paid will also increase as the interest increases which also continues. Therefore, if it is due, please pay your bill until it is paid off.

Tips for Using OVO PayLater

We recommend that OVO PayLater users only use it when they are in a pinch, for example, the monthly money runs out and they need to buy mandatory necessities such as rice and others, it can be done.

However, if it is only used to buy less useful items such as gadgets and other equipment, you should avoid using this Ovo Paylater. Especially for those of you who don’t have a fixed or monthly income, because many are now trapped in fintech debt.
