Quadruple Your Autopay Savings
from Durham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Federal student loan borrowers, pay attention: starting July 1, the Department of Education is quadrupling the autopay interest rate discount—from 0.25% to 1%. If you sign up before September 30, 2026, you’ll lock in this savings until June 30, 2028. With only 40% of borrowers currently on autopay (down from 80% pre-pandemic), this is a major opportunity to cut costs. It applies to all federal direct loans issued after July 1, 2012, regardless of repayment plan. SAVE plan borrowers need to switch to an eligible plan first. Defaulted loans must be rehabilitated or consolidated. Don’t wait—check your servicer’s site and enroll before the deadline. Every penny saved adds up.
