A lender may determine it's in their best interest to charge-off an amount on a loan. Here's what you need to know about this request:

  • Charge-offs are not a forgiven amount on a loan—they hold credit implications for the borrower.
  • A charge-off is actually logged as a credit within LoanPro for accounting purposes. You'll notice the payload for this request uses the Credits object.
  • A charge-off can be made for any amount up to the remaining loan balance. You can charge off the rest of the loan or just a portion of it.

For an example of how charge-offs work within the LoanPro UI, take a look at our Charge-Offs 101 article.
