Branch loan app is a popular mobile loan app available in Kenya, India, Nigeria, and Tanzania and has over 10 million downloads and a 4.5 rating from over 640,000 reviews on Google’s Play Store, by the time of writing this article. Branch loan app offers loans from Ksh. 250 to Ksh. 100,000 in Kenya.

Your branch loan limit will depend on your borrowing history and risk profile.

New customers borrow loans and repay within 28 days and 62 days. As you build your credit history, the borrowing period is adjusted up to 52 weeks ( 1 year).

Like other mobile loan apps in Kenya, Branch uses your location, contacts, M-Pesa, and text messages to help understand your trustworthiness and to set your loan limit, and decide whether to give you a loan or not.

If you find that you do not qualify for a branch loan, do not uninstall the app from your phone. Wait for some days and keep checking time after time, making sure that your credit history on CRB is clean, and that your M-Pesa messages are not deleted.
