Therefore, we recommend that when using the Payment Service, you schedule your payments in amounts and with payment post dates that will satisfy your payment obligations under your Account.

Additionally, if the term (number of payments owed) or payment amounts due on your Account changes, it is your responsibility to adjust scheduled payments accordingly.

e. Prepayment of your Account; Principal Only Payment.
(i) Prepayment. You understand and agree that if you schedule a payment using the Payment Service, that payment will be processed even if your Account is prepaid at the time of processing or the payment results in a prepayment of your Account. You may contact our customer service by calling us at 1-800-874-8822 (TFS in the domestic United States), 1-800-874-7050 (LFS in the domestic United States), 1-866-693-2332 (MFS in the domestic United States), 1-833-277-3701 (BPSFS in the domestic United States), or 1-800-469-5214 (Toyota Credit de Puerto Rico Corp.) if you have any questions about the prepayment status of your Account.
(ii) Principal Only Payment. You understand that you can make a payment that reduces your unpaid principal balance only and is not applied toward your current or future payment, by making a principal-only payment using the Payment Service. When you elect to make a principal only payment, the payment will reduce your unpaid principal balance only and will not be applied toward past due amounts or payments that are currently due or will become due in the future. Daily interest continues to accrue on your unpaid principal balance. You remain responsible for making timely payments as they become due. You can make a principal only payment via any of our automated systems every 24 hours. Additional principal only payments may be made with an agent by contacting our customer service at the applicable telephone number referenced herein.
f. Insufficient Funds. Funds must be available in the linked bank account when a Payment Service electronic payment is processed against that bank account. If a scheduled Payment Service payment fails because the linked bank account contains insufficient funds to satisfy the entire amount of your scheduled payment, you are not relieved of your responsibility to timely pay any amount then due in accordance with the terms and conditions of your Account.
g. Recurring Payment. You may set a recurring payment (“Recurring Payment”) by selecting a fixed payment amount and a payment frequency. For the fixed payment amount, the Payment Service provides two options: you may elect either Current Regularly Scheduled Payment Monthly Amount or Other Fixed Custom Amount.
If you elect Other Fixed Amount, you need to enter a specific amount in the Payment Service. If the amount you enter is less than the total amount due in your monthly billing statement, you are responsible for the timely payment of the remaining amount. Also, if the maturity date or monthly due date changes, regardless of reason, it is your responsibility to adjust the payment amounts and pull dated on the Payment Service.
The Current Regularly Scheduled Payment Amount, provided for your convenience and disclosed in the Payment Service, refers to the then regularly scheduled payment due under your contract with us at the time you set up the Recurring Payment and does not include any additional amounts that may accrue in the future or any amounts, other than the regularly schedule payment, that may be due at the time you schedule the Recurring Payment, such as past due amounts and fees. If your regularly monthly scheduled payment amount changes, after you scheduled the Recurring Payments, for example if your monthly lease payment increases or decreases, regardless of reason, the Current Regularly Scheduled Payment Amount will not change unless you change the Recurring Payment amount to reflect the new regularly scheduled payment amount. Similarly, if additional amounts post to your Account, such as, but not limited to, late fees, tolls, and parking tickets, as applicable, they will not be debited with the Current Regularly Scheduled Payment, and you remain responsible for their timely payment. Also, if the maturity date or monthly due date changes, regardless of reason, it is your responsibility to adjust the payment amounts and pull dated on the Payment Service.
Recuring Payments may be scheduled on the following frequencies, depending on whether you elect Current Regularly Scheduled Payment Amount Monthly Amount or Custom Other Fixed Amount:
- Weekly – the payment will be pulled on the same day of the week each week, unless the day falls on a non-business day, in which case it will be pulled on the following business day. This frequency is only available for Custom Other Fixed Amount.
- Bi-Weekly – the payment will be pulled on the same day of the week every other week, unless the day falls on a non-business day, in which case it will be pulled on the following business day. This frequency is only available for Custom Other Fixed Amount.
- Monthly – payments will be pulled on the same day of the month each month, unless the day falls on a non-business day, in which case it will be pulled on the following business day. This frequency is available for both Current Regularly Scheduled Payment Amount and Other Fixed Amount.
Continue making your regularly scheduled payments until you receive notice that Recurring Payments have been set up and the date on which the first payment will be pulled. If your next due date is prior to the date your first Recurring Payment is scheduled to be pulled you remain responsible for timely making the payment.
Business day means any day except any Saturday, any Sunday, or any day which is a legal holiday or any day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.
Please print or otherwise retain a copy of the authorization and save for your records. By signing up for Recuring Payment, you warrant and represent that you have printed or otherwise retained a copy of this authorization for your records. We reserve the right to cancel your participation in the Payment Services or any part thereof, including cancelling any outstanding Recurring Payment at any time, by providing you notice, or if your bank fails, regardless of reason, to honor a payment request.

The Skip Next Payment Occurrence function allows you to skip a previously scheduled Recurring Payment.
