How it works

Three steps to your loan

  1. Create your account

    Sign up with your phone number, confirm who you are with your BVN and set a PIN. You do these checks once.

  2. Pick your loan

    Choose the amount and the number of months. Before you agree, you see each monthly payment, the fee, every due date and the total.

  3. Receive the money

    Once we approve, the money goes into your GDI wallet. Send it to your bank whenever you want, and repay from the app.

Beyond lending

Accounting and advisory, from chartered accountants

We audit accounts, file taxes, keep books, run payroll and register companies for businesses, NGOs and government agencies. You agree the fee before we start.

Questions

Before you borrow

How much can I borrow, and for how long?

From ₦1,000 up to two times your monthly take-home pay (at most ₦5,000,000), repaid over 1 to 6 months. We work out your limit from your bank statement, after any loan you are already repaying.

What will my loan cost?

5% a month on the amount you borrow, plus a 3% processing fee that is added to your repayments, never taken from your loan. Example: borrow ₦200,000 for 6 months, receive the full ₦200,000 and repay ₦44,333.33 a month, ₦266,000 in total. Before you accept, you see every payment, every due date and the total.

What do I need to apply?

Your phone number, your BVN, your employment ID card, a bank statement for the last 6 months and a bank account in your own name. You take a quick selfie to confirm it is you. Loans above ₦100,000 also need a guarantor. No collateral.

How quickly do I get the money?

As soon as your loan is approved, it goes straight into your GDI wallet. Move it to your bank account whenever you like.

What if I cannot pay on time?

Call or message us before the due date and we will agree a new payment plan with you. After 2 free days, a late fee of 10% of the unpaid amount is added for each month it stays unpaid, and late payments are reported to credit bureaus, so talk to us early.

Do you offer anything besides loans?

Yes. GDI Credit is also a chartered accounting practice: audit, tax filing, bookkeeping, payroll and CAC registration. Book a free 30-minute call with an advisor.
