While interest is charged monthly, M1 Margin Loans do not have a fixed repayment schedule, and you can repay the principal on your terms (except in the case of a maintenance call).
To make a payment, visit Borrow and select "Pay Back."
You will be shown your current amount borrowed. Enter the amount you would like to pay back and select whether you would like to pay back the amount from your external bank, your Individual/Joint Brokerage Account or Trust Account the Margin Loan is from, or your M1 Checking Account.
If you select your Individual/Joint Brokerage Account or Trust Account the Margin Loan is from, your cash will be used first, but if your cash balance is lower than the amount you want to pay back, we will sell from your portfolio to make up the difference.
After you review and confirm your changes, you will be able to view the payback schedule under Transfers.
