variable interest

Changing loan cost

Variable interest is an interest rate that fluctuates over time rather than remaining fixed.

Loans and credit cards with variable interest adjust periodically based on market conditions or a benchmark rate: Our mortgage has variable interest tied to the prime rate.

Borrowers benefit when rates fall but face higher payments when rates rise.
