They will. Equity has just announced that over and above the interest rate, there is an appraisal fee based on the tenor of the loan.
Hahahaha next up KCB-MPesa...
KCBMpesa actually has stopped lending while Equity has reduced loan limits.
M-shwari with their high rates will continue to dominate, they knoe guys who take the loans take them because they need the money immediately and are in need, you can actually ask for an mshwari loan while a supermarket cashier is scanning your goods and get it by the time they ask you to pay, KCB is a kujaribu, most guys try KCB first it takes so long that they end up going to mshwari, equity is another story, you need either a dual sim phone or a separate phone, for withdrawal I see most guys sending the loan cash from their equitel to saf and withdraw from mpesa.
For most kenyans mobile loans are not about cost but accessibility
