- The Promotional Period should be selected
- The No Payment Period is the period where no payments are expected, the above example its 12 Months
- The box for interest accumulation also needs to be ticked

- The APR will be the same as advertised by Mosaic
- No Applicable Incentive should be selected
- The Promotional Period should be selected
- The No Payment Period is the period where no payments are expected, the above example its 12 Months
- Enter the payment factor (i.e. using the monthly amount the fintech calculator, the Payment Factor = Monthly Amount from Loan Calculator / Loan Amount Used in Calculator
