  • Can I repay earlier?

    You can repay the full amount of any borrowing, including accured interest, at any time without additional fees or penalties. This provides flexibility to finance your purchases on longer terms and decide later if you want to repay early. 

  • Can you show an example?

    Your local Service department conducts the winter inspection of your 6R tractor. Since you haven't sold your harvest yet, you use your SmartLine™ Credit Facility to finance the purchase over 12 months. After 4 months, you sell the harvest and repay the borrowed amount without fees or penalties, covering only the prinicipal and interest for those 4 months. You can now plan for a successful planting season and use your SmartLine™ Credit Facility again.
