To qualify for Salary Advance, you must earn a minimum ₦30,000.
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 there is no evidence that you received salary payment in the previous month.
  • 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.

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 200% of your monthly salary, less any EMI. If the monthly repayment is higher than your eligible amount, you will not be able to take a Salary Advance loan.

Once your loan request is successful, your Access Bank account is credited instantly. However, in some rare cases, 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.

As many times as you may like, if you have not exceeded your eligible amount.
