Terms as published by the lender

  • Repayment period: minimum 3 months (91 days), maximum 12 months. We do not offer any loan that must be repaid in full in 60 days or less.
  • Interest: 10% per annum (simple interest), plus a 5% processing fee and a 15% excise duty on that fee, both deducted upfront from your disbursement. No other fees apply.
  • Maximum Annual Percentage Rate (APR): approximately 66%. This is the worst case — the shortest (3-month) loan, where the upfront fee has the biggest annualized impact. Longer loans cost less: about 34% APR over 12 months.
  • Repayment period: minimum 3 months, maximum 12 months.
  • Interest and fees on the financed balance (device price minus deposit): same structure as personal loans above — 10% p.a. simple interest, 5% processing fee, 15% excise duty on that fee, all repaid together with the financed balance over the loan term.
  • Maximum Annual Percentage Rate (APR): approximately 32% (nominal), applying to the shortest (3-month) device financing term.

How to apply

Install the app from the official listing above, register with your phone number and ID as the app asks, and review the loan offer: it must show the amount, the total cost and the due date before you accept. Loans are usually sent to M-Pesa. Repay through the app or the paybill shown in it. Late repayment can lead to penalties stated in your offer and to listing with a credit reference bureau.
