M1 Margin Loans don’t have a fixed repayment schedule, so you can repay the balance on your terms (except in the case of a margin call).
Margin Loan interest is deducted once a month from your Brokerage Account’s available cash. If there isn’t enough available cash to cover the interest, we’ll add the interest to your Margin Loan balance. If you’ve run out of available cash and available margin, we’ll sell investments to cover interest costs as a last resort.
You can make a payment on your M1 Margin Loan from your Margin Loan dashboard or using the “Move money” button.
Make a Margin Loan payment using the "Move money" button
Enter the payment amount
In the “From” field, select which account the payment will come from
If you select the Individual/Joint Brokerage Account or Trust Account that the Margin Loan is linked to, available cash in that account will be used first. If the available cash is less than the payment amount, we will sell overweight investments from your portfolio to make up the difference.
In the “To” field, select the Margin Loan you’re making a payment on. The loan’s current balance will appear underneath the loan title
After you review and confirm your changes, you will be able to view payback activity from Transfers.
