  • Check-off loans in Kenya operate on the principle that your employer automatically removes your monthly repayment from your salary even before it reaches your hands. The amount deducted is deposited straight into Mwananchi Credit every month until the loan is completely repaid.

Yes. Although this is usually linked to government employee loans in Kenya, our salary check-off loans also apply to employees of approved private companies, as long as their employer is a signatory to a check-off agreement with Mwananchi Credit

Salary check-off loans are charged on the basis of an interest rate depending on the loan amount, the time of repayment and the type of employment. Since payroll deduction loans are less risky in terms of default, the rates are more competitive than regular personal loans. Contact us for a personalized quote.

The majority of instant salary loans in Kenya are done by Mwananchi Credit. They are approved and paid out within 24 hours of a complete application with all the necessary documents.

You will need to inform Mwananchi Credit as soon as you change employers. You will be required to establish a new check-off with your new employer, or you can make some interim manual repayments.

The loan will be based on your monthly net salary and the time you have to repay it. Monthly payments used for repaying the loan by deducting them through your payroll should not be more than one-third of your net salary. It is better to apply online and see how much you are eligible to get.
