Payment Processing Timelines
When you make a loan payment to GFNational, it typically takes 1-2 business days for the payment to be processed and credited to your loan account. However, there are some factors that can affect the processing time, such as the payment method you use, the time of day you make the payment, and whether or not it is a holiday.
If you make a payment online or through the GFNational mobile app, the payment will typically be processed within 1 business day. If you make a payment by mail, it may take 2-3 business days for the payment to be processed.
Payments made after 5:00 PM EST will be processed the next business day. Payments made on holidays will be processed the next business day.
Impact on Loan Balances and Interest Accrual
The timing of your loan payments can impact your loan balance and interest accrual. If you make your payments on time, you will pay less interest over the life of your loan. If you make your payments late, you will pay more interest and your loan balance will increase.
For example, if you have a $10,000 loan with a 5% interest rate, you will pay $500 in interest over the life of your loan if you make your payments on time. If you make your payments one month late, you will pay $525 in interest.
Payment Confirmation and Receipts
When you make a loan payment through GFNational, you will receive a confirmation email or SMS message. This confirmation will include the date, amount, and reference number of your payment. You can also view your payment history and download receipts by logging into your GFNational account.

- Payment Confirmation Receipt: This receipt confirms that your payment has been received and processed. It includes the date, amount, and reference number of your payment.

Importance of Keeping Records
It is important to keep records of your loan payments for tax purposes. You may need to provide proof of your payments to the IRS or other tax authorities. You can download and print receipts from your GFNational account or save them to your computer.
