The indicative repayments are only an estimate and figures should be used as an indication only. They do not represent either a quote or pre-qualification or approval.

Therefore, you repay the purchase amount on your Q Mastercard or Q Card (as applicable) in full within the Start-up Interest Period. In this instance, the indicative monthly repayment is the finance amount divided by the Start-up Interest Period. The indicative repayments assume there are no additional purchases, cash withdrawals, fees or charges are incurred. If there is a Payment holiday in addition to the Start-up Interest Period, you will be required to make the minimum monthly payments upon expiry of such Payment Holiday.
