Direct Debit arrangements#
If your fixed rate loan starts on a Business day, then the nomination for interest to be prepaid via direct debit arrangements must be received prior to 1.00pm on the start date of your fixed rate loan. If your fixed rate loan starts on a non-Business day, then the nomination for interest to be prepaid via direct debit arrangements must be received prior to 1.00pm on the Friday before the start date of your fixed rate loan.
Nominations that are received after the above times will be processed on the next Business day. This will result in a variable interest charge on your loan account until the direct debit is processed.
Before submitting a Fix and Prepay Interest application, it is recommended all Borrowers seek independent financial advice and consider the following points:
- Once a fixed rate loan has commenced, the Lender’s agreement is required to change its terms or cancel it.
- If a fixed rate loan is cancelled or if its terms change during the Fixed Term, break costs may be payable.
- If you have a Target Facility Balance, please discuss your preferred approach with us before you fix and prepay.
By applying to Fix and Prepay Interest, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:
- All quotes for a fixed rate are indicative and only valid for the time at which they are given. Current fixed rates are available from the Lender.
- The actual fixed rate applying to the loan amount will be the rate advised by the Lender in the prepaid interest confirmation or other communication to the Borrower.
- It is the Borrower’s responsibility to ensure that a properly completed Fix and Prepay Interest application is submitted in time. The Borrower should also check that the prepaid interest amount paid by the Borrower has been credited to the account.
- Neither the Lender nor any employees or agents of the Lender, including the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Group, are responsible for any loss to the Borrower or other consequence(s) due to the Fix and Prepay Interest application, Fix and Prepay Qantas Points Offer application, other instruction or payment being declined, not being received in whole or part or on time, or being incomplete in whole or part.
- The Lender may decline the request to Fix and Prepay Interest at its discretion, including if an instruction to capitalise any interest (calculated at the fixed rate on the amount agreed for the fixed rate loan) may result in a breach of the Maximum Gearing Ratio.
- Any prepaid interest is usually not refundable.
- If the Lender accepts the Fix and Prepay Interest application, the entire interest charge for fixed rate loan terms of 12 months or less must be paid in advance. Interest charges for fixed rate loans with terms greater than 12 months must be paid annually in advance.
- This paragraph only applies if you have a Linked Investment Account and a Target Facility Balance: Payments (specifically, sweeps) to and from a Linked Investment Account only take place on a Business Day. If you are relying on the sweep to pay an amount, this will not occur until the next Business Day. Until then, the amount is treated as a drawing and interest will be charged at the variable rate. We suggest you discuss your preferred approach with us before you Fix and Prepay.
- A fixed rate loan is treated as fully drawn under the margin loan facility. Once the interest charge is prepaid, the principal amount of the fixed rate loan will generally not change. Any unutilised portion of the fixed rate loan will be allocated as a variable rate loan as a credit balance and therefore not accrue interest charges. No interest is paid on credit balances and a credit balance allocated as a variable rate loan will not be offset against the fixed rate loan.
- Any pre-existing fixed rate loan will continue to operate to the end of its fixed term. New fixed rate loans will operate from the commencement of their new fixed term.
- Once the Fixed Term expires, unless a new fixed rate is agreed, interest at the variable rate will apply.
- To be eligible to earn Qantas Points, borrowers must be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member and must provide their Qantas Frequent Flyer number, initial of first name and surname to Leveraged at the time of finalising their Fix and Prepay Interest application. Qantas Frequent Flyer details must be a direct match between the Qantas Frequent Flyer Member name and the margin loan Borrower name. Qantas Points will not be awarded if the borrower provides their Qantas Frequent Flyer details after submitting their Fix and Prepay Interest application. Membership and points are subject to the Qantas Frequent Flyer program Terms and Conditions.

FAQs
A fixed and prepaid rate is a fixed rate that applies to all or part of your loan balance where the fixed interest is prepaid in advance in a lump sum at the start of the fixed term. A fixed rate does not change during the agreed fixed term. This means that while variable interest rates may increase or decrease, the fixed rate applied to your fixed rate loan will not change during the fixed term.
The minimum fixed rate loan amount is $20,000 for the Margin Loan and Investment Funds Multiplier or $5,000 for the Direct Investment Loan in multiples of $1,000 for requests above the minimum. The maximum amount you can apply for will primarily depend on your approved Credit Limit. Please ensure your Credit Limit can accommodate the fixed rate loan you intend to apply for. Applications are subject to our approval.
The start date of your fixed rate loan can be any day from 1 June 2025 to 1 July 2025, with a fixed rate period we agree to.
If you are rolling over an existing fixed rate loan, the start date will be the next day after the expiry of your current fixed rate loan unless specified otherwise.
If you do not nominate a start date, we will use the date after the expiry of your current fixed rate loan or 30 June 2025 as the start date.
You can choose a fixed term of up to 5 years, with up to 12 months fixed interest paid in advance. As an example, if you apply to start a 1-year fixed rate loan on 24 June 2025 the fixed rate loan will expire on 23 June 2026.
Fix and prepay interest rates are published on our website in June 2025 and are subject to change at any time until your Fix and Prepay Interest request is accepted by us.
Interest is charged on the start date of the fixed rate loan except for fixed rate loans commencing on 1 July 2025 where interest will be charged on 30 June 2025.
You can only pay up to 12 months of interest at the start of the fixed rate loan. This is called prepaying interest.
You can choose to make a cleared payment to cover the interest charged, however the funds must be available in your margin loan account before the start date of your fixed rate loan.

Capitalise interest to your facility
This option is available to investors who have sufficient borrowing capacity and Credit Limit at the start of the fixed term. The fixed interest will be capitalised to the variable loan portion of your facility on the day before the fixed rate loan starts. Capitalising interest to your facility is subject to our approval. If capitalising interest to your facility is expected to cause a Margin Call, Margining Event or put your facility into the Buffer, then we may not accept your request for a fixed rate loan. Please ensure you have sufficient borrowing capacity to pay fixed rate loan interest.
Note: Interest paid in advance is usually not refundable.
When you begin a fixed rate loan, funds will be made available to you to invest from the start of the fixed term.
This means that at certain times during the fixed term, part, or all of the fixed rate loan may be undrawn.
If you have an established Target Facility Balance with an activated sweep function, then we can help you manage any undrawn amount of the fixed rate loan by sweeping funds between your Loan Account and the Acceptable Linked Investment Account that forms part of your Secured Portfolio.
If your loan amount is less than your Target Facility Balance, we will arrange to automatically sweep any excess funds to the Linked Investment Account established on your behalf to earn credit interest on the excess funds. Where the total amount borrowed in your Loan Account is greater than the Target Facility Balance, we will automatically sweep the funds from the Linked Investment Account into your Loan Account to reduce the loan to the Target Facility Balance (or as close as possible subject to funds availability in your Linked Investment Account).
The aim is to maintain the total amount borrowed around your nominated Target Facility Balance.
Target Facility Balance is available on Margin Loans and Direct Investment Loans. It is not available on Investments Funds Multiplier Loans.
If you have a Target Facility Balance, please discuss your preferred approach with us before you fix and prepay.
To check whether your Loan Account is set-up for Target Facility Balance, please call us on 1300 307 807.
Once a fixed rate loan has commenced, the Lender’s agreement is required to change its terms or cancel it. Break costs may be payable and interest is usually not refundable if a fixed rate loan is cancelled or if its terms change during the fixed term.
Your fixed rate loan will revert to a variable rate unless you request for a new fixed rate loan.
