There are no obligations or commitments by simply applying for a loan with us. In the application process we simply collect all the data we need to process your application.

Once you have submitted your application our trained agents will assess your application, review your supporting documents and perform an affordability assessment in conjunction with your credit report. They will then give you a call to confirm your details and to get confirmation of your acceptance of the salient terms of the proposed loan agreement.

Applying for a loan does not guarantee that you will be successful.

Once your application has been approved we will pay out your loan into your elected bank account or to a cellphone wallet controlled by you. In this process you will also be sent an electronic link to a copy of your loan agreement.
