You can [retrieve collateral without closing your loan](/support/can-i-retrieve-collateral-from-an-open-loan-or-line-of-credit). You can also [refinance a loan into a new one](/support/can-i-refinance-my-loan) instead of closing and reopening. If you prefer to close, you can do so anytime with no closure fees as long as:

- Your loan has been open for more than 60 days:region-only[, and you haven’t [increased your credit line](/support/how-do-i-increase-my-credit-line) in the past 60 days]{in="us"}

To close, open the “Cash” tab in the mobile app or the home page of the web app, then go to the “Borrow” section:

1. Open the loan you want to close
2. Scroll to the bottom and tap “Close”
3. [Repay your outstanding principal and pay outstanding accrued interest](/support/how-do-i-pay-interest-or-repay-principal).

After closure, your collateral is returned to your bitcoin balance **within 3 business days**. A summary document becomes available at <UserIcon /> “Account” under <DocumentIcon /> “Documents”. You can still access the loan center to review history.
