Who it suits

  • Salaried workers with a payroll or regular income deposit at a partner bank
  • Borrowers who value speed over picking from a single lender
  • Anyone comfortable applying through mobile banking

Who should look elsewhere

  • Borrowers with no steady income deposit, since eligibility turns on a payroll account and partner bank deposits
  • People who want to talk to a person on the phone, as support runs on help centre only
  • Shoppers who prefer a direct lender, since Foneloan is a broker

Frequently asked questions

How much can I borrow from Foneloan?+

Loans run from NPR 500 to NPR 100,000, covering personal, payday and buy now pay later lending. Terms are set on 1 to 30, so you can pick a shorter or longer repayment window to suit your monthly income.

Does Foneloan run a credit check?+

No. The credit check is listed as none, so there is no credit file search behind the application. Approval instead rests on your banking habits, which is worth knowing if your credit history is thin.

How fast do I get the money?+

Funding is Instant, within a few minutes, one of the quicker routes if you need cash urgently. Same day funding is the headline feature, and the money goes to your account rather than being sent some other way.

Who can apply?+

Eligibility covers individual customers who hold a payroll or salary account, or a regular income deposit at a partner bank, plus an active mobile banking subscription. Applicants also have to clear the bank's own analytics score threshold.

Is Foneloan a lender or a broker?+

It is a broker, so your application is passed to a lender rather than Foneloan funding you directly. That shapes who you deal with on the loan itself, so read the offer from the lender carefully.

Can I repay early?+

Yes, free early repayment is one of the terms, so clearing the balance sooner carries no extra charge. That makes it easier to reduce the interest you pay if your income improves.

What kinds of loan does Foneloan offer?+

It covers personal, payday and bnpl lending, so the same application path can handle a personal loan, a payday loan or a buy now pay later plan. Which one you get depends on how the lender scores your banking activity.

How do I get help?+

Support runs on help centre only, so the help centre is the route for questions on a live application. There is no phone or email line listed, which is a drawback if you want to talk the decision through.
