You can get from 20,000NGN to 500,000NGN as a loan 5. We will always send reminders for your repayment without much disturbance. How it works Install the Monibac App from App Store Register your account Start saving After 3 months, the customer is eligible to request a loan of up to 150% of their total savings. If they request for the loan, they submit their request on the app, we check to ensure their KYC documents are complete. If the loan is approved, they will get a request to E-sign. Once they sign, the approved amount is added to their Monibac Balance Apart from loans, they can also lock their savings for a specified period of time. For example; if they save for 3 months, they get 3% of their savings. 6 months, they get 5%. Our Loan Product Tenure- Our tenure ranges from 90 to 180 days. Interest rate for 90 days is 9% Interest rate for 180 days is 15% Loan amount will be capped at N5 million Our interest rate depends on the tenure the customer chose. An example of how this loan and repayment works…. If a customer has N200,000 as total savings, they can get a loan of N300,000. If they take the loan for a period of 3 months, then the 9% interest will be on the principal amount of N100,000 which is 9,000. Therefore, the total payable amount will be N109,000. Since the repayment is monthly, the N109,000 divided by 3 months = N36.333 Our APR is between 30.4% and 36.5% if we use 15% for the 6-month repayment and 9% for 3 months respectively. Eligibility 1.
