How do I pay off an SBLOC?

You must contact The Bancorp to pay off your outstanding SBLOC. You cannot pay off your SBLOC via your Betterment investment accounts. This is because The Bancorp typically only allows a checking account (this includes Betterment checking accounts) or a wire transfer as valid methods to pay off an SBLOC balance. Once the loan is paid off, The Bancorp will notify Betterment so that we can “un-pledge” any collateralized accounts.
