A revolving credit facility provides a pre-approved credit limit that can be drawn, repaid, and redrawn repeatedly. Interest is charged daily only on the outstanding drawn balance — not on the unused limit. The facility covers consumer overdrafts, personal credit lines, and small business working capital facilities.

Eligibility

Assessed automatically by MOD-105.

Responsible lending obligations apply at origination and at each limit increase.

Account opening

Application triggers MOD-028 (credit score), MOD-027 (affordability), and MOD-105 (eligibility gate). Decision is returned in-session. On approval, MOD-050 delivers the credit contract disclosure, MOD-049 captures consent, and MOD-007 transitions the facility to ACTIVE. The credit limit is immediately available to draw.

Interest

Interest accrues daily on the outstanding drawn balance: daily_interest = outstanding_balance × (annual_rate / 365). Accrued interest is debited monthly as a single posting. The rate is variable; MOD-006 manages rate change events and customers receive notice per CON-005 before any rate increase takes effect.

Statements

Generated monthly by MOD-113. Each statement shows opening drawn balance, all drawdowns and repayments, daily interest accrual, monthly interest debit, and closing balance. Delivered to the in-app document vault; available as PDF download. Retained for 7 years.

Closing / exit terms

The drawn balance must be repaid in full before closure. MOD-007 enforces this gate. On zero balance, any pending direct debit mandates linked to the facility are cancelled and the credit limit is cancelled. Account transitions to CLOSED via MOD-007. No break cost applies on closure of a revolving facility.
