THIS FUNCTIONALITY IS CURRENTLY ONLY AVAILABLE FOR ISLE OF MAN BASED USERS.

 

You can start the process for taking out a loan from the Loans page which can be reached by selecting Loans in the sidebar of your CoinCorner account.

 

From the Loans page you will see some information regarding the loans we offer, with a loan calculator which can be used to create a loan against your existing BTC balance in your account.

Enter the GBP loan amount you are after in the Amount box and the Collateral box will automatically populate with the BTC amount that you must put up as collateral for a loan of that value. 

Using the dropdowns provided you can then choose the repayment term and select the date each month that the payment is debited from your CoinCorner account.

More detailed information on the loan, including the interest rate and margin and liquidation calls, can be found on the right hand side of the page and hovering over the gg.PNG icon will provide a brief description of what each of these mean. 

 

Upon clicking Create a popup will appear that lets you enter a name for the loan to help you keep track of what it is for, especially if you decide to create multiple.

The terms of the loan will be displayed to you again as well as copy of your loan contract for you to download, read and keep for your records. The BTC price for your loan updates every 15 seconds on the previous page and will be locked in when you get to this point and the contract is provided.

If you are happy to proceed with the loan then tick the box provided and click Create.
