Skip-A-Pay This Holiday Season!

The holiday season is a time for celebration, and we’re here to help! Give yourself a break by skipping your Auto or Personal Loan Payment.

WHY SKIP-A-PAY?

A Little Breathing Room When The Season Gets Busy

From gifts to gatherings, the holidays come with extra costs. Skipping one loan payment can free up cash for what matters most.

Holiday Shopping 

Check everyone off your list without stretching your budget thin. The money you'd normally put toward your loan payment can go toward gifts for the people you love.

Travel

Family Travel

Flights, gas and hotel stays add up fast this time of year. Skipping a payment can help cover the trip home so you can focus on time together.

Seasonal Celebrations

Hosting dinners, holiday parties and New Year's gatherings brings joy, and extra expenses. A skipped payment gives you more room to celebrate the season your way.

Unexpected Expenses 

Winter has a way of surprising us with car repairs, higher utility bills or medical costs. Skip-A-Pay can act as a cushion when the unexpected shows up at the worst time.

Giving Back

The season of giving often inspires donations to causes close to your heart. Extra cash on hand makes it easier to support your community.

A Fresh Start to the New Year

Ease the end-of-year crunch and head into January on steadier footing. A little extra flexibility now can help you start the year with less stress.
GOOD TO KNOW

Before You Skip

Interest keeps accruing during the skipped month, so your total finance charges will be higher. See the full disclosure below for complete terms.

One payment per loan type may be skipped.

Up to two skips per calendar year, never in consecutive months, and five for the life of the loan.

Loans with CPI do not qualify.

Auto loans require current insurance information on file.

Skipping a payment may affect GAP coverage on your loan.

*Offer is subject to final approval by F3 Credit Union. The request must be received during the promotional period of November 1 – December 31, 2026, and on or before your payment due date. Only one payment per loan type may be skipped. You may only skip two payments per calendar year and skips cannot occur in consecutive months. Your loan must be open at least 120 days. Calendar year is defined as January – December. Only five skips are allowed for the life of the loan. Skip-A-Pay offer applies to loans in good standing and only includes auto loans and personal loans. Loans with CPI do not qualify. There is a $40 skip fee per loan and will be deducted from your account. If loan is held jointly all owners must agree. Finance charges will continue to accrue daily at the Annual Percentage Rate set forth in the loan agreement, both during and after the deferral period. This means it will result in higher total finance charges and possibly a higher total number of payments than if made as originally scheduled. Therefore, extra payment(s) may/will have to be made after the loan would otherwise have been paid off. In all other respects, the provisions of the original agreement remain in full force and effect. Regularly scheduled payments will resume with the payment due during the month following the deferral. This may affect GAP coverage on your loan. Current insurance information must be on file for auto loans.
