205 ILCS 305/50

(1) A credit union may grant a self-replenishing line of credit to a member up to a stated maximum amount. The terms and conditions upon which a line of credit is extended to any member may be different from the terms and conditions established for another member. Where a line of credit has been approved, no additional loan applications are required as long as the total outstanding advances under the line of credit do not exceed the maximum amount as stated in the line of credit agreement. (2) The term "line of credit" means a type of credit agreement including, without limitation, a credit card agreement. Each line of credit advance constitutes a loan, and provisions in this Act regarding loans are equally applicable to lines of credit.
