How It Works: Lending & Borrowing Made Smarter

ChamaScores: Your Financial Reputation

  • With a ChamaScore range from 300 to 850, your score reflects how well you perform on your loans. A high score means a strong credit history, giving you credibility across multiple chamas.
  • Improving Your ChamaScore: Pay back loans on time, contribute monthly, and avoid defaults. By building a high ChamaScore, you unlock better lending terms, and you'll be trusted across all chamas you're a part of.

Transparency Across Chamas

  • Whether you’re a member of one chama or many, your ChamaScore is shared across all, ensuring that your performance in one chama affects all others. If a default occurs, your score flags your loans with a red alert in every chama—keeping others informed.

Track All Loans in One Place

  • Follow both the loans you've issued and those you've taken. See monthly contributions, interest rates, penalties, and repayment schedules at a glance.

Earn Interest on Loans You Invest In

  • As a chama member, when you guarantee or invest in loans, you earn interest on timely repayments. This builds value for everyone involved and incentivizes responsible lending within the community.

Your Credit Reputation Matters!

ChamaTek encourages members to manage their credit histories proactively, as ChamaScores are shared with other chama members and even friends. Reliable repayments build your reputation, ensuring that when you need a loan, you're trusted by everyone in your chama network.

More about ChamaScores

A ChamaScore is a rating that chamatek assigns to users of the platform based on how well they take and repay loans on the platform. It is a measure of how creditworthy a member is. A good ChamaScore will make getting loans easier and also unlock features such as fuliza.

Excellent

Excellent scores signify a person with exemplary credit management, posing minimal risk to lenders. These individuals are typically offered the best interest rates, highest credit limits, and exclusive financial benefits.

800 - 850

Very Good

Scores in this range indicate strong financial management and low credit risk. Lenders view these individuals as highly reliable borrowers, leading to fast approvals, low-interest rates, and premium credit options.

740 - 799

Good

Good chama scores reflect responsible credit usage and consistent payments with minimal negative history. Individuals in this range are typically approved for credit with relatively favorable rates, and they may have access to better financial products.

670 - 739

Fair

A fair score signals a moderate credit risk and some history of financial inconsistencies, though it's less risky than a poor rating. Lenders might approve credit applications, but interest rates and terms may still be less favorable than average.

580 - 669

Poor

Scores in this range are considered poor and indicate a history of credit challenges or severe risk to lenders. People with poor chama scores may have difficulty qualifying for loans and, if approved, will likely face high-interest rates and unfavorable terms.

300 - 579
