You have the choice between manual interest payments and automatic interest payments.
When choosing to set up automatic interest payments, you must make sure that you have enough crypto within your Celsius wallet to cover your monthly interest payments as they will be automatically withdrawn.
Interest can be paid in CEL, BTC, ETH, USDC, GUSD, TUSD, USDT and MCDAI. If you choose to pay off your loan interest using CEL, you'll receive a discount of up to 25%!
Keep in mind that the principal is to be paid in one lump sum. The principal amount is not paid down monthly. What you pay on a monthly basis is the interest.
Here are the step-by-step instructions on how to manually pay the interest or how to set it up automatically.
