The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is effective as of 11/1/2024. Rates range from 3.99% to 18.00% APR with terms up to 100 months. Upon submitting an application, you may qualify for a higher loan amount and/or higher APR. The APR is determined by various factors within Arkansas Federal’s custom scoring model, including, but not limited to, credit score, credit history, income, and debt-to-income. You must have a minimum household annual income of $25,000, be over 18 years of age, and have a valid U.S. Social Security Number to be considered for an Arkansas Federal auto loan. Loan approval is subject to confirmation that your income, debt-to-income ratio, credit history, and application information meet all requirements. Even with a lower interest rate or monthly payment, paying debt over a longer period of time may result in paying more interest. Full coverage insurance with a maximum deductible of $1,000 is required on all auto loans, including refinances. The borrower is responsible for adding Arkansas Federal as a lienholder. Offer and rate advertised are subject to change without notice. Membership with Arkansas Federal is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is auto refinancing?
Auto refinancing is like hitting the reset button on your car loan. It means swapping out your current loan for a new one that offers better terms, like a lower interest rate or a longer repayment period, which can lower your monthly payments. Basically, the new loan pays off your old loan, and then you just start making payments on the new one.
How do I qualify for an auto refi loan?
Qualification for an auto refi loan is based on factors like your current loan term, credit score and history, payment history, and the value of your car.
How does extending my auto loan term affect my monthly payments?
Extending your loan term spreads your payments out over a longer period of time. This means that your monthly payments can be lower, but it may result in paying more interest over the life of the loan.
When should I consider refinancing my auto loan?
You might want to think about refinancing your auto loan if your credit score has gone up and you’re aiming for a better interest rate or loan term, which could mean lower monthly payments. It’s also a good option if you need more time to pay off the loan or if you’re interested in a payment break of up to 90 days.Interest continues to accrue during the deferred payment and credit score determines rate. First payments may be due up to 90 days from the date of the signed contract.
How will refinancing affect my credit score?
Applying for an auto refi loan can cause a temporary small dip in your credit score due to the hard credit inquiry, but making consistent on-time payments can help bring it back up.
Are there any fees associated with auto refinancing?
There’s no application fee and no origination or pre-payment penalty fees, though you may be charged a late fee if payments aren’t made on time.
How do I apply?
You can apply in just a few minutes online, or by visiting your nearest branch.
