You can request for a Payday Loan through any of the following ways:

  • Dial the USSD code *901*11#

  • Go to the Access Mobile App and select Loans & Investments

Once your loan request is successful, your Access Bank account is credited instantly. However, it may take up to 24 hours to process before disbursement into your account. In such an event, we will notify you of any delays.

The maximum amount (i.e. eligible amount) you can get is 20% of your monthly average turnover for six months, subject to a maximum of ₦300,000 and less any active loans at the Bank. Your eligibility is displayed when you request for the loan.

Customers will face a 1% penal charge per month for defaulting on the loan from 31 days past due.

The interest rate for Lending Against Turnover is 12%. Other charges include a 1% management fee, and 0% credit life insurance, which are taken upfront.
Your eligibility will be affected by any of the following:
  • If you have any outstanding loan(s) in Access Bank or other banks.
  • If you apply using a phone number that is not linked to your BVN.
  • If you have taken previous digital loan and exceeded your eligible amount.
  • If you have an existing loan and the monthly repayment is higher than your eligible amount.

The loan amount will be deducted from any inflow into the customer’s account. Where the loan us past due, deduction will be made from any account linked to your BVN.

Where you have existing loans, the equated monthly instalment (EMI)/ monthly repayment(s) will be used in calculating your eligible amount. Your eligibility amount will therefore be 20% of your average monthly turnover, less any EMI. If the monthly repayment is higher than your eligible amount, you will not be able to take a Lending Against Turnover loan.
The loan tenor is 90 days (3 months).

Your Lending Against Turnover loan will be due for repayment every month for a cycle of three (3) months tenor from the date the loan was disbursed into your account (anniversary date).
