What is Reinvest Small Balances in Loans?

By selecting this option, Investable Cash in your account (in increments of $100 or more) is eligible to be invested in new loans through Automated Investing (you must have Automated Investing turned “on” to participate). In other words, even if you do not have enough Investable Cash to reach the standard $1,000 minimum to invest in a new loan, this feature allows you to automatically reinvest any amount of at least $100  rather than have it sit in your account. This helps you to take advantage of compounding returns (i.e., by earning interest on interest deposited in your account) while further diversifying your portfolio.
