Managing Liabilities
Last updated 2026-02-20
Adding a liability
Track everything you owe by adding liabilities to your account.
1. Navigate to Wealth
From your dashboard, go to the Wealth section and select the Debt tab.
2. Click Add
Click the + button and fill in the details:
- Name — e.g. "Home Loan", "Visa Card"
- Type — Mortgage, Car Loan, Credit Card, HECS-HELP, Personal Loan, or Other
- Current Balance — how much you currently owe
- Interest Rate — the annual percentage rate (optional)
- Monthly Payment — your regular repayment amount (optional)
3. Link to an asset (optional)
For mortgages, you can link the liability to the property asset it's secured against. This lets you see equity calculations on the asset card.
Liability types
| Type | Common examples | |------|-----------------| | Mortgage | Home loan, investment property loan | | Car Loan | Vehicle financing | | Credit Card | Visa, Mastercard balances | | HECS-HELP | University student loan | | Personal Loan | Unsecured loans | | Investment Loan | Margin lending, share purchase loans | | Business Loan | Working capital, equipment finance | | BNPL | Afterpay, Zip balances |
Repayment types
For mortgages, you can specify whether the loan is:
- Principal & Interest (P&I) — paying down the loan over time
- Interest Only (IO) — only paying interest, balance stays the same
This affects how Frank analyses your debt position and provides recommendations.
Offset accounts
If you have a savings account that offsets a mortgage, you can link it as an offset account. See Offset Accounts for details.
Debt payoff strategies
Frank can help you compare debt repayment strategies:
- Avalanche method — pay off highest interest rate first
- Snowball method — pay off smallest balance first
Ask Frank: "What's the best way to pay off my debts?"
