Savings Secured Loans (1:1)

The Savings Secured Loan is your primary loan product.

This loan caters for all consumption loans. Whether it be personal, educational, travel related or when that unplanned family obligation arises this loan product is specifically tailored for your needs.    

Contrary to current lending practice, this product aggregates all consumption loans in one basket to allow you to have one loan account with a single loan deduction, rather than having different deductions for each loan which would make it more costly for you.   

Eligibility for this product is calculated from a member’s ShareSaver account balance. Whatever amount is currently saved in the ShareSaver account, you can borrow against it.

  • Minimum loan K200
  • Borrow against S1 balance
