  1. Flexible loan terms: Flexible loan terms are available for 7, 14, 30, 90, and 180-day loans. Binance Loans’ interest (possible to be paid in advance) calculation is done per the actual borrowing hours. Post the expiration time, the interest is charged 3 times on an hourly basis. If either of the positions is overdue for over 168 hours, they are closed automatically for repayment.
  2. No early repayment penalties to pay: Yes, that’s right. Interest penalty will not be levied on an early repayment of a Binance Loan. Upon returning the principal amount, the interest is charged per the real borrowing hours.
  3. Freedom to use funds: Use funds as you deem fit. There is no restriction on the usage of the loanables (be it to trade, stake, or withdrawal).
  4. Loans staking: You can stake collateral assets to reap cryptocurrency rewards, and cushion the loan interest rate. The collateral assets used for borrowing are deposited in a cryptocurrency wallet for blockchain network support. Against this, you stand to receive rewards that reduce the interest rate. In the case of a BTC loan, traders can utilize a BTC loan as a collateral to secure a BUSD (or USDT) loan. Upon repaying the loan and its interest, the collateral would be sent to your Binance Spot Account. The appreciated value of BTC during the loan duration tends to accrue profit to the borrower.

Example of Using Binance Loans

Billy the businessman is in a dire need of working capital for a healthy turnover. He is HODL’ing 5 BTC (Bitcoin) as of now (not to sell for a long-term). Know what? Billy is lucky enough. Know why? Well, Billy can use his 5 BTC as collateral to subscribe to Binance Loan. He can simply loan out his cryptocurrency assets to avail assets (on loan) of his BTC asset’s corresponding value.

Billy can either use this loan amount for trades on Binance, or withdraw the fund for his turnover needs. Billy can avail a Binance Loan in easy-to-follow steps.

Billy would need to:

  1. Log into his Binance account
  2. Click on “Finance” and select “Crypto Loans.”
  3. Make a choice of the cryptocurrency to be borrowed and collateralized, respectively.
  4. Enter the loan amount. Select the “Loan Term.”

The corresponding collateral rate (initially) would differ across various cryptocurrencies. The specific rate depends upon the loan page display. After interest and repayment amount confirmation, Billy would click “Start borrowing now,” and access the order page. Then Billy would click on the “Binance Loan Service Agreement” checkbox for acknowledgement. Billy clicks on “Confirm” after reviewing the terms and conditions. Guess what? Billy would then feel the ultimate enlightenment as he receives the loan assets in his Binance Spot Wallet.

Yes, I get it. As soon as getting it, Billy would then be wondering about the loan’s timely repayment. When Billy is ready to repay the loan on or before the repayment date, Billy would simply need to click on the “Orders” tab, to access “Loan History.” Finally, Billy would click on “Repay” to repay the cryptocurrency and the interest. After repaying the loan and the interest, Billy would witness his collateral reappearing in his own Binance Spot Wallet. Pretty clean, isn’t it? Sure is.
