Can I skip my car loan payment?

Topics

Life is full of twists and turns. Sometimes even the car loan payment can seem like a stretch. Guess what? You can use the Skip a Pay option to skip your car loan payment up to twice a year.

For every loan you skip, there is a $30 fee that goes back to our community. Since this money stays local, you’re not only getting a little extra spending money, you’re also helping to support community programs.

Can I defer my car payment?

Yes. If you are a member in good standing, you can skip a loan payment whenever it fits your needs up to once every six months on your qualified loans.*

How often can I use Skip a Pay?

One skip per qualified loan every six months. Normal payment schedule will resume on the month following the skip.

Loans must have been funded at least 90 days prior to skip and three months of payments must have been made in order to be eligible.
