The biggest thing about Fuliza is the interest that it earns on the borrowed amount. What they avoid talking about at all costs because if Kenyans really knew what’s up they would avoid it like the plague. Let me break it down for you like the FA I am

They simply offer customers a means to buy time, but at a premium so costly it would be illegal for a Kenyan bank. Ni hayo tu kwa Sasa. Let me go back to my books now🤯😳😅

What this means In numbers exactly is this: If you borrow 1000 from mshwari you’ll part with around 56 bob interest If you borrow the same 1000 with fuliza you’ll part with around 244 bob This is if both debts last 30days Those numbers are INSANEEE

Safcom’s fuliza is no different from all these digital lending apps that are all over Kenya burdening the majority of Kenya’s poor with debt that can only be classified as slavery now. That’s why big papers like financial times call this ‘perpetual debt in the silicon savanna’

In essence, what that really means is that while a bank will give you an annual rate of not more than 13.6(currently the highest by Jamii bora bank as per CBK website June report), Safcom will give you an annualized rate of 395.2% per year🤯

I’m the safcom website under FAQs for fuliza they have clearly indicated that you will be charged a one off interest rate of 1.083% and a daily administrative fee on the outstanding balance ranging from KES 2-30 for a limit of 0-70k Those numbers don’t look bad right? WRONG

And another thing that makes it all the more disturbing is that it does not fall under Kenya Bankers Association so it is not a regulated product like what banks offer so they will inflate that interest rate to their hearts desires without any repercussions in the long run

And of course this real cost of debt is never mentioned much lest Kenyans know they are not paying that 1.083% or the 7.5% for fuliza. It’s bad for business duhhh. They choke it down to product differentiation but it’s purely extortionist.

You can’t be listed under CRB for not paying fuliza the way you would by banks and the digital mobile lending apps. They will just keep racking up your debt the more you don’t pay and it’s a classic debt trap

Compare this with their other products like Mshwari that charge 7.5% standard fee(not revolving on outstanding balance like fuliza) which is essentially around 90% per year(still high but incomparable by a long shot)

It’s attractiveness and addictive ness comes from the fact that it is so easily accesible on your phone, it’s size and brand clout, lack of disclosure of the actual full interest in its terms and conditions(the 1.083% ni ya kufumba macho honestly) and the icing on the cake

Alafu if I may add before Twitter nazis attack me. Yes Fuliza is an overdraft facility. I am speaking on it being used as a loan facility since some people are using that reason to defend the high rates. And even if overdraft. Check what is being offered elsewhere. No comparison
