ZA Bank has rolled out its all-new debt consolidation program ‘Debt Changer’, featuring customised payment holiday of up to 6 months to help users easily manage their debts at fingertips within one app.
‘Debt Changer’ offers a maximum of 6-month payment holiday1, where users can choose when to take a break and defer repayment by one month based on their personal financial needs. No principal and interest repayments will be incurred during the period, offering users greater flexibility in handling their loan and credit card balances. By consolidating users’ debts with other banks, financial institutions and credit cards into a single loan within the ZA Bank App, the program seeks to make it easier for them to repay in one go, and to achieve the long-term goal of improving their credit ratings.
As the interest rates and repayment terms of loan schemes in the market vary, users may find it difficult to calculate the exact cost of each debt. ‘Debt Changer’ aims to address this pain point through the ‘Debt Consolidation Specialist’ service to customise cost-effective repayment solutions. Users can submit their applications via the ZA Bank App round the clock, receive a preliminary approval result, and enjoy this personalised experience upon the submission of the required documents.
Devon Sin, Alternate Chief Executive at ZA Bank, said, ‘We are pleased to introduce this new debt consolidation program to further enhance users’ digital banking experience. Paying off debts is an important element of a healthy financial lifestyle for users. With “Debt Changer”, we look forward to standing with our users in tackling their debts and planning for a hassle-free life.’
