At Oze, we understand business owners need to take a loan for several reasons and have created two loan products to cater for most of them; ensuring every business can have access to the funds they need for expansion.

Oze loan products:

Oze Cash Now: For business owners who need a loan to execute a project that will be paid for after completion.

Oze SME Loan: For business owners who sell products/services

Oze Cash Now Loan

This loan is offered to business owners that need funds to execute a project that will be paid for after completion. These projects are typically initially executed with funds from the entrepreneur. However, there must be a contract that states payment will be made after the project is completed.

For example; a business owner that is into property renovation i.e painting and has been commissioned to paint an office space with a contract that clearly states that payment will be made after completion of the project.

In most cases, a need for a loan arises when the business owner has exhausted personal/business funds on the project to a certain level and needs funds to complete it.

Eligibility Criteria:

For a business to qualify for the Oze Cash Now Loan, they need to meet the following criteria:

– Record 10 sales or expenses in a month

– Link their bank account (Watch the video on how to link your account here)

– Upload a bank or mobile money statement from the last 3 months. (i.e if you plan to apply in August, upload a statement that covers July, June and May).

– Show evidence that they have been working on the project and have self-financed it to a particular stage.

– Present the project contract.
