Purpose of Loan:
We’re pleased to offer you a Personal Loan. Here’s the summary of your loan offer.
Please review the Terms and Conditions below and sign the last page of this
document
Parties involved:
1. You agree to take this loan subject to the terms and conditions contained in this letter
(“Offer Letter”).
2. The conditions precedent to the drawdown of the loan are as follows (i) signing of
this loan offer letter, (ii) satisfactory completion of repayment instrument, and (iii)
provision of tokenizable debit card covering loan tenor.
3. You agree to repay the principal loan amount plus the full applicable interest (the
“Repayment Amount”), as reflected in the repayment schedule (“Repayment
Schedule”) which is provided in the Key Fact Statement ("KFS”) below, as well as
any other fees which you may be required to pay under the provisions of this Offer
Letter.
4. You agree to pay a management fee of one percent (1%) of your principal loan
amount and the applicable value-added tax. This fee covers the expense incurred by
Renmoney for processing and appraising your loan application and maintaining your
loan account. This will be deducted from your first repayment as reflected in the
Repayment Schedule.
5. By accepting this Offer Letter, you agree that a digital account will be created for
you (“Renmoney Account”) through which you may conduct transactions such as
early liquidation of your loan or for initiation of repayments. Details of this account
will be communicated to you following your acceptance of this loan offer.
6. We reserve the right to change the terms and conditions of this loan, including terms
on the interest rate, fees, and charges, at any time during the tenure of the loan. Such
variation will become effective upon notice to you by any means we consider
reasonable in the circumstance. If, however, we change the rate of interest payable on
the loan, you shall be duly notified at least ten (10) days before the implementation
of such change.
7. You are allowed forty-eight (48) hours to review this Offer Letter (“Review Period”)
and you may cancel your loan within three (3) working days after signing this Offer
Letter (“Cooling Off Period”).
8. You shall send all communications or complaints regarding this loan to us via
telephone on 070 5000 500, via e-mail at [email protected] or in person at any
of our branches. If and where necessary, you may direct complaints to the Consumer
Protection Department of the Central Bank of Nigeria by writing to the Director,
Consumer Protection Department, CBN, Abuja or by sending an email to:
[email protected]. Renmoney Microfinance Bank is a company duly licensed and
regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
9. Any notice from us to you shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given if sent by
electronic mail, via your account officer, delivered by hand, sent by courier service,
or registered mail to an address provided by you to us in writing.
10. This Offer Letter is governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the
courts of the Federal Republic of Nigeria have jurisdiction in respect of any matter
arising from it.
11. Your loan amount will be paid into your primary bank account (“Disbursement
Account”) upon successful application and qualification for disbursement.
12. You may be charged an Electronic Money Transfer Levy (“EMTL”) of NGN 50 on
disbursements into your Disbursement Account.
13. The monthly flat interest rate for this Loan is 4.89 % and is calculated by dividing the
total interest of NGN 498,584.28 by the loan amount of NGN 850,000.00 and by the term
of 12 months. The flat interest rate for this loan has an equivalent reducing balance interest
rate of 7.93 % which is charged on the balance outstanding at every Repayment Date.
What this means is that each Repayment is comprised of principal and interest payment
components, and as such, with each Repayment, your total principal outstanding reduces,
leading to a reduction in the interest amount on each subsequent Repayment, since interest
is calculated on the outstanding principal. Taking the reducing balance interest rate stated
above into consideration, the total interest you will pay is NGN 498,584.28. Adding this to
the loan amount of NGN 850,000.00, the total payable amount is NGN 1,357,721.78.
14. You agree to make periodic repayments of agreed amounts in respect of the loan
(“Repayments”) at the intervals and on the dates (“Repayment Dates”) captured in the
Repayment Schedule. If a Repayment falls due on a non-business day, the Repayment may
be made on the next business day.
15. Your Repayments shall be as communicated in the Repayment Schedule but may
periodically change where your loan account incurs any fees and/or charges. Such fees
may include late payment fees or restructuring fees and will be charged on your account
and calculated as part of your periodic Repayments. Details of any additions to your base
Repayments as communicated in the Repayment Schedule shall be communicated in your
loan account statement.
16. You agree that you have a continuing obligation to pay the Repayment Amount and
any other sums which may become payable under the terms of this Offer Letter and that we
shall always have recourse against you for outstanding amounts where you default on any
payments, including payments of fees, which may become payable under or in connection
to this Offer Letter.
17. You agree that you shall not request that we approach any third party in the event of
your default on any due and outstanding amounts, notwithstanding anything else contained
in this Offer Letter or any agreement between you and any third party.
18. You agree to provide us with a properly funded bank account held with a Nigerian
Bank in which you regularly receive your salary (your “Account”) which shall be linked to
your loan. You further agree that a debit mandate will be set up on your Account and a
repayment instrument created to this effect, to enable automatic deduction of Repayments
from your Accounts (“Automated Repayment”).
19. You may choose any provider among Paystack, Remita and MBS Direct Debit for your
Automated Repayments. You agree to bear the transactional cost for setting up the
repayment instrument on your Account by any of the providers you choose.
20. Where you choose Paystack or MBS Direct Debit as your payment provider, your debit
mandate shall cover the periodic Repayments, the provider’s applicable processing fees,
and any default interest incurred on your loan, where applicable. Where you choose Remita
Direct Debit, your repayment mandate shall cover the periodic Repayments and the
applicable processing fees. A ten percent (10%) buffer will be included on your debit
mandate to cover any default interest where they arise.
21. You hereby instruct us to debit your Account through the repayment instrument and
where your Account is unfunded or the debit is otherwise denied, your Renmoney Account
to satisfy any and all outstanding Repayments. The Automated Repayments shall only
pertain to due and outstanding Repayments, although Repayments may be calculated to
include other fees such as accrued penalties.
22. You agree that Repayments may be deducted in several portions or fractions from your
Account, depending on the funds available in your Account and both accounts may be
separately debited where necessary to satisfy outstanding Repayments under this Offer
Letter.
23. You may also initiate payments manually at any point during your loan, in respect of
any Repayment. You can do this by using tokenized cards on your Renmoney web or app
account, by direct transfer to Renmoney’s designated account number, or by paying the
intended amount into your Renmoney Account and instructing us to deduct the amount to
offset any Repayment (“Manual Payment Methods”). Evidence of such payment should be
communicated to us, within twenty-four (24) hours following payment, via email
at [email protected]. Please note that such payments into Renmoney’s designated
account or your Renmoney Account may be subject to a charge of NGN 50 as an EMTL.
Remember to quote the above-stated Loan ID in all payments and communications to help
us match your repayments and/or requests in respect of your loan.
24. You may terminate this Offer Letter and fully liquidate the loan at any time before the
final Repayment Date (as set out in the Repayment Schedule), by paying the Repayment
Amount, together with any other fees or charges due and payable on the date of such early
liquidation, using any of the Manual Payment Methods stated above. Evidence of such
payment should be communicated to us, within twenty-four (24) hours following payment,
via email at [email protected].
25. Where you fully liquidate the loan within seventy-two (72) hours of disbursement, you
shall repay only the principal amount and management fee without any interest. However,
where you make early repayment any time after seventy-two (72) hours of disbursement,
you shall repay the principal amount, management fee as well as any other interest or fees
already due and payable under the terms of this Offer Letter.
26. You may make early payment in respect of any Repayment which is not yet due, or
which is to become due, by using the repayment option provided through your Renmoney
Account via our web and mobile applications. Such payment shall be reconciled against
your loan account. You may be debited of any outstanding amounts on the Repayment
when the Repayment becomes due and payable. Where you make excess payment, you
may contact us and request an account reconciliation, following which we may either
refund any excess paid or apply the excess to your next Repayment.
27. You agree that we may, subject to reasonable prior notification, deduct Repayments
due to us from your Accounts before the relevant Repayment Date as provided in the
Repayment Schedule in certain circumstances and as necessary.
28. Should you fail to make any Repayment that falls due in line with the Repayment
Schedule, we will charge a late payment fee of one percent (1%) per month which shall be
chargeable daily on the due and outstanding amount for as long as the default continues
(“Late Payment Fee”). The Late Payment Fee shall be charged separately from the
ordinary interest on the loan. We shall start applying the Late Payment Fee to your
outstanding Repayment, seven (7) days from the date on which you were due to make the
relevant Repayment.
29. You agree that in the event of default, Renmoney shall, without notice to you, deduct
the loan amount (principal and interest including all fees and other monies then accrued or
due under this Offer Letter) from your savings, deposits or other monies domiciled with
Renmoney, in satisfaction of such outstanding liabilities towards Renmoney, whether such
liabilities be actual, contingent, primary, collateral, several or joint.
30. Renmoney shall have a first charge over such monies, proceeds or payments received
for your benefit over any other creditor or claimants. This is in addition to, and without
prejudice to any financial assets that you may now or hereafter hold.
31. If you fail to fully repay the loan as agreed, the loan will become delinquent, and we
shall have the right to report the delinquent loan to the Central Bank of Nigeria (“CBN”)
through the Credit Risk Management Systems (“CRMS”) or by any other means, and
request the CBN to exercise its regulatory power to direct all banks and other financial
institutions under its regulatory purview to set-off your indebtedness from any money
standing to your credit in any bank account and from any other financial assets which they
hold for your benefit. We may also exercise any other rights which we have in respect of
default and/or delinquency under this Offer Letter.
32. Upon disbursement of the loan amount to you at any time after the execution of this
Offer Letter you agree to waive the Cooling Off Period and you agree that your
commitment to repay the loan shall become thereon fully effective.
33. You have the right and legal capacity to accept this loan and have taken all necessary
actions to give effect to this loan on the terms and conditions contained in this Offer Letter.
34. You are not under any agreement or obligation on any other loan, borrowing or other
engagement, in respect of which your acceptance of this loan will be or will result in a
breach or default.
35. The information given to us verbally, via email or other electronic medium or in other
forms of writing as well as documents submitted in support of the loan application are true,
accurate and complete. You are solely responsible for the correctness of such information,
and we shall have no obligation to verify the authenticity of any documentation provided
by you. We accept no liability for consequences arising out of any erroneous, incorrect, or
incomplete information supplied by you. If you suspect that there is an error in the
information you have provided to us, you will advise us without delay. We will make our
best effort to correct the error where possible, but we shall have no liability arising from it.
36. You will complete your repayment instrument(s) (e.g., direct debit mandate or debit
card) with true, accurate, up-to-date and complete personal information and execute the
instrument before submitting it to us.
37. If your personal information, including your phone number and address, changes, you
will inform us of such change. Under no circumstance will we be liable for any loss,
expense, damage or consequence of any kind incurred by you, due to non-compliance with
this requirement.
38. You agree to immediately notify Renmoney of any changes to your salary payment
date or changes to your employment details. The repayment schedule shall be subject to
change in line with changes to your salary payment date.
