Kredi Bank Interest RATES AND FEES

Loan amount range from N5,000 to N500,000. However, you must be at least 21 years at your last birthday to be considered for a loan. The loan tenor can be between 60 to 180 days. Interest rates range from between 4.5% – 35% with an equivalent monthly interest of 5%- 29%. An APR of 29% to 120%.

A typical example is this:
If you choose to get a 6-month loan of N10,000, Kredi Bank charges an interest rate of 5% per month which would amount to 30% for the tenor. We would charge you N3,000 as the interest of the 6-month period so that your total repayment is N13,000.

This interest rate and tenure is just an example, expect your actual loan to have a much shorter tenure. But you can increase your tenure and loan amount by making your full repayments on time. Defaulting will affect your credit score negatively.

Kredi Bank usually require no collateral, guarantors, or documents. However, for loans beyond certain amounts, they may require additional documentation.

Is Kredi Bank legit or scam?

Kredi Bank is legit and does give out loans. It is still relatively new with just about 10k downloads so far, but on average users who have used the app give positive reviews.


What Kredi Bank can improve

The app still contains some bugs which prevent users during registration, the date of birth field during registration is not functioning for some users.

Loan rejection rate is also high, you might labour and submit all your details only to be denied a loan. To increase your chances of getting a loan, continue using the app to pay bills and save.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

When processing your loan request for eligibility, they look at several signals, such as your credit score, past loan performance, etc. They require that loan applications be filled with the correct information as any falsification could delay your loan request, or your profile may be blacklisted. For cases of fraud, you may be reported to the authorities.
