Payment-free month

Written by Vilho

A payment pause lets you skip one month's invoice. You can request it directly in the Anyfin app after your invoice has been generated.

How to apply

To activate a payment-free month, log into the Anyfin-App and scroll down to the payment plan section, then select "Payment-free month." If the option doesn't appear, check that the invoice has been generated and try again later.

Conditions

You can apply if all of the following are met:

  • You've been a customer for at least 3 months and paid your first 3 invoices.

  • You've used fewer than 2 payment pauses in the last 12 months (not a calendar year).

  • There are at least 2 paid invoices between any two pauses.

  • You have no overdue invoices.

  • If you've recently refinanced a new loan, the first invoice(s) for that loan must be paid.

  • You apply before the invoice due date — not after.

If any condition isn't met, the pause can't be activated.

Please note that you cannot apply to move or add new credits during a payment-free month. In addition, paying the invoice during a payment-free month does not unlock the possibility of applying for new credits; next month's invoice must be paid first.

What does a payment pause cost?

⚠️ A payment pause is not free. Interest continues to accrue during the pause and is added to your outstanding balance. In practice:

  • Your next month's invoice will be slightly higher.

  • Your loan term is extended by one month.

  • Your total loan cost increases compared to the original repayment plan.

Use it when it genuinely helps — not as a routine option when money is tight.
