What is a CreditLine?

A creditLine, also known as a line of credit, is a loan that allows you to borrow money and pay it back repeatedly, without having to apply for a new loan each time. It is a convenient source of funds for unexpected bills like car repairs and medical emergencies, can be used as overdraft protection, and is handy if you need to write a check or use cash instead of using a credit card.

Funds in a CreditLine can be transferred to any Sunward account through online banking or our automated phone system and will be available for use right away.
