Single payment loan is also known as time loan or balloon loan. The loan does not require periodic principal payments. Full amount is due at maturity.
Single payment loan is a term that denotes secured commercial loans generally given to a business person or a company having a fixed maturity. The amount is repaid with interest in one cumulative payment. Single payment loans are for affluent borrowers.
