Crest Loan uses a hybrid onboarding model to safeguard borrower identity and ensure responsible lending. A Crest Loan Field Officer visits your physical business premises, verifies your identity document and business licence, and completes an onboarding report. Once approved, you are granted secure digital access to the Crest Loan APK to apply for loans.

Once onboarded, repeat borrowing does not require repeated physical visits as long as your account remains in good standing.

Strictly NO. In compliance with the Kenya Data Protection Act, 2019 and Central Bank of Kenya regulations, Crest Loan guarantees:

  • We do NOT harvest, sync, or scrape your phonebook contacts;
  • We NEVER contact uninvolved relatives, friends, or employers to shame you;
  • We NEVER post or threaten to post customer information on social media or public forums;
  • All recovery procedures follow our strict, dignified Code of Responsible Collections.

All repayments are made securely via our official Safaricom M-Pesa Paybill or through the embedded payment feature within the Crest Loan APK. Never pay cash to any individual or Field Officer.

You are fully entitled to settle your loan before the maturity date at any time. Early settlement builds a strong credit record and accelerates your eligibility for credit limit increases.
