Secured Line of Credit

Using collateral can mean better borrowing rates.

A Secured Line of Credit from FNB provides a reusable source of financing to help meet your financial objectives. You can utilize all or a portion of the total credit limit as you need it, and only pay interest on the amount you use. By pledging personal assets like balances from a savings account or certificate of deposit as a guarantee for repayment of the loan, we can often offer lower rates of interest or higher limits than with other forms of borrowing.

  • Enjoy Real Flexibility:

    A Secured Line of Credit from FNB1 gives you the flexibility to borrow up to your credit limit at any time. Whether you use your line for overdraft protection or just as a cushion for those unexpected expenses, a line of credit provides you the borrowing power you need to help meet life's financial demands.

    How a Secured Line of Credit works:

    A Secured Line of Credit allows you to borrow as much as you need, at any time, up to a certain amount — unlike an installment loan which is for a specific dollar amount. As you repay your outstanding balance, the amount of available credit is replenished, meaning you can borrow against it again and again. With this type of loan, you only pay interest on the amount you use. Because you pledge your FNB Savings Account or Certificate of Deposit as collateral for the loan2, we can generally offer higher limits and a lower rate than other forms of borrowing.

    • Secured with an FNB Savings Account or Certificate of Deposit2

  • Qualifying for a Secured Line of Credit:

    FNB uses credit score, employment history, monthly debt payments and income, among other factors, when considering whether or not to approve your application.
