JoyCash Loan App Review: online app in Nigeria

Online loan apps provide easy access to emergency loans with very minimal requirements. JoyCash is a Naira loan app that provides micro loan for emergencies.

With just your BVN and an ID card, you can get cash limit of up to #100k sent to your bank account within minutes. You do need to have a good credit score, and good SMS banking record on your phone to qualify for higher amounts.

This loan app is relatively new and has so far gained over 10k downloads on the Google play store with mixed reviews. It uses loan software to collect prospective customers’ information including phone records, banking transaction alerts, and BVN to build each borrower’s credit score.

Because of their minimal documentation and no collateral requirement, online loans are very expensive with high-interest rates. They should not be taken to fund one’s lifestyle but rather should only be used for emergency needs.

How to Download APK and get a loan from JoyCash loan app

• Download the JoyCash personal Loan App exclusively available on the Google Playstore and install it on your Android phone.
• Register an account with your phone number.
• Preferably the phone number connected to your BVN as a one time password will be sent to it for verification.
• Fill in your basic Know-your-customer KYC information, including your residential address, next of kin and employment details
• You will also be required to provide your Biometric verification number BVN.
• You’ll be charged N30 to bind your ATM card to your account to increase your chances and get a higher loan amount.
• A one-time password OTP will be sent to your phone to confirm your details.
• After the submission of your loan application, the software will analyze your credit score and the final result will be shown in the APP.
• The result should be displayed in less than two minutes and if you qualify for a loan, the loan amount will be disbursed into the bank account directly.
• Make sure you’re using a good phone with enough memory space as you will be required to take a clear live selfie for identity.

The N30 charged to bind your ATM card to your account is refundable, but can take anywhere from 7 to 12 business days for the money to be refunded back to your bank account.

Your BVN is linked to your credit score, so if you have an outstanding loan with other lenders or didn’t pay other lenders as at when due, expect your application to be rejected.

Note that online loan apps are not licensed or regulated by any government agency in Nigeria, you are responsible for your own safety while taking a loan from them as there is no way to make complain about poor service.

Balogun Soliu wrote, “The app is really good but I have a problem I had a one-day overdue and later pay up but since then have been unable to get another loan it keeps telling me to apply again the next day please work on that for me.”

Omojero Happy wrote, “The app is awful. How do you approve a loan and say disbursement is successful when for over two days the recipient did not get the alert? I won’t be liable to any loan I allegedly received without receiving it. If you can’t work on your app then it’s no one’s fault because I won’t pay for a loan I did not receive.”
