Umba makes getting a personal loan simple. How? We use the data on your smartphone to verify your identity and create a credit score.

1. Apply for loan by linking your other bank account(s) for credit scoring upon verification and ratings loan is accessible.
2. Repay the loan in due time to increase your loan limit/credit ratings.

Umba loans have a maximum and minimum duration of 62 days.
Credit amount: From ₦2,000 to ₦30,000
Terms: 62 days
The maximum annual interest rate of 10%
Commission: 0% (No commission)
VAT: 0%
Maximum APR (Annual Percentage Rate): 10%

Here is what the above means: for a loan of ₦10,000, there is a 10% interest rate i.e. ₦1,000. So at the end of the term of 62 days, you will be required to pay ₦11,000. No late fees, no rollover charges, or origination fees.

Stupid app 😡 😡 👎 no customer service number to call, no response to emails. Very very poor app. I don't recommend it to anyone at all. I wanted to take a loan, i connected my UBA account but still can't get past the account connection and there's no option for a microfinance bank linking. I hate this app, uninstalling immediately 😡 😡 👎

UMBA has helped me a lot in times of urgent needs. It's user friendly. I will rate it well because it delivers needed funds in time. The app does its best and honour what it represents without breaching privacy n respect. The finance and loan app has a dedicated watchdog system to estimate trust and what is possible regarding getting different loan offers.
