Business loans for SMEs and small businesses
SME and small business loans in Zambia for marketeers, traders, drivers and craftspeople. Working capital in Kwacha, no payslip needed. Apply online with Ornix Credit.
Running a small business in Zambia means paying for stock, tools and transport before the money comes in. An Ornix Credit business loan gives you working capital to keep your business moving, and you repay in monthly instalments from what you earn. You don’t need a payslip: we look at the income from your business instead.

What you'll need
Your NRC and a mobile number to register. Instead of a payslip, you show proof of your business income, such as mobile money or bank statements. When you apply, we show you exactly which documents your loan needs. Depending on the loan, security (collateral) may be needed; we’ll tell you before you apply.
How much, and for how long
