2. What Credit Activities We Engage In
We provide credit assistance. Specifically, we suggest that you apply, or assist you to apply, for a particular credit contract or consumer lease with a credit provider. We also suggest you remain in, or assist you to remain in, a particular credit contract or consumer lease.
We do not provide credit ourselves. All credit is provided by third-party lenders in our panel.
3. Fees and Charges
Fees we charge you: BaseRate charges no fees to consumers for using our platform, receiving credit assistance, or submitting a credit application. A financier may charge its own fees and interest under the credit contract.
Remuneration we receive: If a finance application introduced through BaseRate settles, the financier pays BaseRate a referral fee (commission). The amount can vary by financier and product.
On request, we will provide you with the estimated dollar amount of any commission we expect to receive in connection with your application.
4. Illustrative Rates and Comparison Rates
Illustrative example only. Repayment estimates use a 7.99% p.a. example interest rate and exclude lender-specific fees unless stated. This is not a quote, offer, approval or indication that this rate is available. Your interest rate, comparison rate, fees and repayments will depend on the financier, your circumstances and the final loan details.
A lender-specific comparison rate cannot be calculated from this generic example because lender fees are not included. When you receive a finance option, compare its interest rate, comparison rate, fees, total repayments and terms before proceeding.
