A Lending System Built Around The Borrower

Everything you need to see what you qualify for, what a loan will cost, and what you still owe — without chasing anyone for an answer.

Instant Loan Decisions

Submit your application and the system checks your eligibility straight away. Most borrowers get an answer in minutes, and approved funds go to mobile money the same day.

Every Cost Shown Up Front

Principal, interest, and fees are laid out before you accept. Track each repayment against the schedule and watch your balance fall — no recalculated totals, no surprises later.

How ChapChap Lending Works For You

A loan process designed around how people in Rwanda actually earn, borrow, and repay.

Apply In Minutes

A short form, your indangamuntu, and a mobile money number. No payslips, no guarantors, no branch visit.

Paid To Mobile Money

Approved loans land in your MTN MoMo or Airtel Money wallet, and you repay from the same place.

Limits That Grow

Start small and unlock a higher limit as you repay. A thin credit file is a starting point, not a rejection.

Repay On Your Cycle

Choose weekly or monthly instalments to match how your income actually arrives, and settle early with no penalty.

Your Data Protected

We collect only what a lending decision requires, encrypt it end to end, and never sell it on.

Your Borrowing Power Grows As You Repay

ChapChap Lending tracks every repayment you make. Clear one loan on schedule and the next one comes with a higher limit and a better rate.

What Our Borrowers Say

Honest words from people across Rwanda who used a ChapChap loan to keep their business or household moving.

“I applied on a Tuesday morning and the loan was on my MoMo before lunch. No queue, no payslip, no one telling me to come back tomorrow.”

Uwase Divine
Shop owner, Kimironko

“Seeing the total repayable before I accepted is what won me over. The figure at approval is the figure I paid — it never moved.”

Habimana Eric
Moto driver, Kigali

“My limit has gone up three times since my first loan. Repaying on time actually counts for something here.”

Mukamana Claudine
Salon owner, Nyamirambo

“Instalments come off my MoMo on the same day I get paid, so I have never missed one.”

Niyonshuti Patrick
Driver, Musanze

“Stock ran short right before a big weekend. A Growth loan covered it on the Friday and I cleared it the next week.”

Ingabire Solange
Trader, Nyabugogo

“I settled my loan two months early and there was no penalty for it. That is not something I expected.”

Mugisha Jean
Mechanic, Huye

“I use ChapChap to bridge the slow months. Just knowing the limit is sitting there takes the pressure off.”

Umutoni Grace
Tailor, Kigali

Frequently Asked Questions

Still weighing it up? Here is what borrowers ask us most before they take out their first ChapChap loan.

Anyone over 18 with a valid indangamuntu and an active mobile money number registered in their own name. You do not need a payslip, a guarantor, or an existing bank relationship to get started.

First-time borrowers start on the Boost product, from RWF 20,000 to 300,000 over one to three months. As you repay on time your limit grows, opening up the Growth and Enterprise products with longer terms.

Most applications get a decision within minutes and approved funds go straight to your MTN MoMo or Airtel Money wallet. Larger facilities go through a short manual assessment first.

You see the full amount repayable — principal, interest, and any fees — before you accept. The figure shown at approval is the figure you repay, and settling early costs you nothing extra.

Talk to us before your due date and we will restructure the schedule where we can. Late repayments attract a fee and affect your future limit, so it is always worth reaching out early rather than going quiet.
