How It Works
The process is simple and fully digital. You start by completing the online application and uploading your payslip and bank statements. Mali uses this information to conduct an intelligent affordability assessment, ensuring the loan is safe for your financial situation. Once your application is approved, you will receive a loan offer outlining the exact costs, repayment date and DebiCheck instructions.
You then confirm the DebiCheck mandate through your banking app or SMS. This step authorises repayment securely on your next salary date. Once DebiCheck is approved, the funds are paid directly into your bank account, allowing you quick access to the money you need. There are no hidden fees, no surprises and no long-term commitments—just a simple, transparent short-term loan designed to help you meet essential needs responsibly.
