What happens if the loan is not repaid on time?

The lender will have the option to seize the underlying NFT collateral while the borrower can choose to repay before the lender decides to seize the NFT.

What are the current platform charges?

Platform charges for USDC, USDT, and DAI tokens are fixed at 5% on the interest due. For loans lent with NORD tokens, the platform fees are zero.

What is the difference between pro-rata and fixed interest?

In a Fixed interest rate bid, borrowers need to pay the entire interest amount to the lenders even if they pay back the loan amount well within the loan period. In the Pro-rata option, the lender provides money to the borrower on a pro-rata basis which means the borrower only needs to pay back the loan amount with the proportional interest rate required.

For Example, Alex is ready to take a loan from the Bob on Nord NFT Loans platform against his NFT. Let’s say the agreed amount for the NFT Loan between Alex and Bob is $1000 at a 10% interest rate for 10 weeks. Let’s say Alex can pay the amount back with interest within 5 Weeks.

Following are the interest amount that needs to be paid by Alex to Bob in each of the scenarios:

Fixed interest rate option: 1000*(10/100) = $100 interest amount payable to Bob

Pro-rata interest rate option: 1000*((10)(5/10)(1/100)) = $50 interest amount payable to Bob
