Interest-free period
Each order of cross collateral loan will enjoy a 3-day interest-free period, starting from the day of borrowing, i.e. the first 3 UTC+0 natural days of the borrowing are interest-free (including the day of borrowing).
Interest Charge
After the interest-free period, VIP 0 for example, a daily interest rate will be charged at 0.24%, and the interest is calculated once a day at 00:00 UTC+0.
The system will update the accumulated interest of each order according to the formula (remaining loan amount* the latest interest rate), and refresh the LTV at the same time.
The calculation method is: Borrowing time dd+N 00:00 UTC+0.
Example 1: User borrowing time = 2020-07-01 00:00:00 UTC, interest-free period = 3 days, will start to record user’s interest at 2020-07-04 00:00:00 UTC.
Example 2: User borrowing time = 2020-07-01 07:02:55 UTC, interest-free period = 3 days, will start to record user’s interest at 2020-07-04 00:00:00 UTC.
Example 3: User borrowing time=2020-07-01 07:02:55 UTC, Principal=500USDT, interest-free period=3 days. The user repays 200USDT on 2020-07-03 23:00:00 UTC, will start to record user’s interest based on 300USDT at 2020-07-04 00:00:00 UTC.

How to repay interests
When you make a repayment, interest will always be repaid before any principal, according to the order time it is generated i.e. the first order is paid first; once all interests have been repaid in full, you will then start repaying principal, the LTV will be refreshed at completion.
