Pros and Cons of Loan Apps in Kenya 

Pros 

Unsecured loans- You do not need to provide collateral property to secure a loan, which is convenient if you do not have a property or anything valuable to use as collateral.
Flexible repayment- Many apps have several options for the customer to choose a repayment schedule.
Growing credit limit- Repay your loans on time to increase your chances of getting bigger loan limits for the subsequent loans 

Cons 

Higher interest rate- Because the loan is unsecured, the interest rate will be much higher to cover the risk of defaulting. 
Smaller maximum loan- If you’re a first-time borrower, you may find that your maximum limit may not be enough to cover your expenses as the maximum amount you can loan is much smaller than other institutions.
Risk of hacking and scams- There are bad loan apps in the Internet be careful about the data you share and the online loan apps you use, as these can be prone to data hacking since the whole loan process is done online.
