Fido personal credit and business loans are intended to assist entrepreneurs and individuals with their everyday needs and not to service long-term debt obligations. Maximum Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for the highest loan amount is 70%. This is based on an interest of 0.299% per day. Processing fee per credit is 26 GHS, and Deductible Commitment fee is 1.4%. Representative Example: A borrower who receives 3,500 GHS credit for a 180-day term, will be charged an interest rate of 0.299% per day, thus 1,203 GHS in 180 days, and a processing fee of 26 GHS, summing up to a total repayment of 4,729 GHS. A deductible 1.4% commitment fee is applied, and 49 GHS will be deducted from the principal. ‏In summary: 3,500 GHS (borrowed amount), minus 49 GHS (commitment fee) + 1,203 GHS (interest) + 26 GHS (processing fee) = 4729 GHS (total payment). The borrower has the flexibility to make early repayments at any point which may reduce the above-stated interest. Contact us at +233-0596922420 / www.fido.money for more details.
