You can pay off your Commonwealth Bank (CommBank) personal loan early, but the rules differ by loan type. Below is the verified, up-to-date guidance based on CommBank’s official information, with clear steps and caveats so you can plan an early payout confidently.
Variable-rate Personal Loan: Early payoff
You can pay off your variable-rate personal loan at any time without additional fees. Making extra or lump-sum repayments can help you save interest and finish the loan sooner.
Fixed-rate Personal Loan: Extra repayments and early payout
Fixed-rate loans can accept additional repayments. However, if the amount of early repayment is a full payout with 12 or more months remaining on the loan term, CommBank may charge an Early Repayment Adjustment (an administrative/cost recovery charge linked to breaking a fixed term). This Adjustment applies to full early repayment under those conditions; CommBank does not state a specific annual dollar cap for partial extra repayments on fixed-rate personal loans.
How to repay early
- Use the CommBank app or NetBank to make extra repayments or a lump sum.
- For a full early payout, request a payout figure to ensure all interest and any applicable charges are included.
- Keep your regular repayment active until the payout is processed to avoid missed-payment fees.
