Ever since the advent of mobile loans, the uptake of digital credit has been on the rise in comparison to secured loans offered through conventional credit institutions.
This has largely been contributed through the ease of accessibility that requires borrowers to have the bare minimum eligibility requirements which include; be 18 and above years old, possess a smartphone as well as be an avid user of the Mpesa services.
However, there are additional factors that determine one’s ability in getting loan approvals as well as loan limits.
One such factor is the use of Mpesa statements in making loan decisions.
An Mpesa statement is a document containing all financial transactions done through the Mpesa platform over a certain period.
It can be accessed through the Safaricom network by dialing *234*5*1#
Below are some of the loan apps that request for Mpesa statements to make loan decisions.
