Why is my Bank Verification Number (BVN) required?
Your BVN is used to verify that the individual applying for a
Lendico loan is the same as the owner of the provided bank
account. This is to prevent unauthorized use of your details
by a 3rd party. Kindly note that providing your BVN does not
provide access to your account. If in doubt, you may decide to
confirm from your bank.
How does Lendico make a lending decision?
A lending decision is made from your credit score as a
borrower. Your credit score is based on the information that
you provide to us. The more genuine this information is, the
higher your chances of getting a loan.

don’t have a loan product that matches your profile at the

Will my loan size increase as I repay?
Yes, the more you repay the higher the loan amount you are
eligible for.

of these, please contact us.

concerning your loan.
Repayment and transactions
How can I repay my loan?
You can repay your loan either manually or via the auto-debit
service.
How does auto-debit work?
The auto-debit service makes loan repayment seamless. The
service uses the debit card attached to your active loan to
initiate a loan repayment for you. Auto-debit helps you stay
true to your words and increase your credit score.
What cards can I auto-debit?
Lendico supports MasterCard and Visa cards for auto-debit as
long as there are sufficient funds in the account, you don’t
need to worry.
Can I repay my loan before the due date?
Sure! You can pay as soon as you can afford to repay, it
doesn’t matter if the loan is not due yet.
What happens if I can’t make a payment on my due date?
We understand that financial circumstances can change,
however, it is essential to note that we do not reschedule
repayment dates and you should only take a Lendico loan if you
are reasonably certain you have the means to repay within the
agreed period. There may be fees associated with late
repayments. In addition, defaulting loans are reported to
national Credit Bureaus and this can severely affect your
ability to access loans in future. We therefore advise you to
make every effort to meet your obligations on time.
Can my loan repayment date be rescheduled?
Kindly note that due dates are fixed when your loan is
approved. We do not reschedule due dates, so kindly ensure
appropriate planning to be able to meet repayments as at when
due.
Can I pay down on my loan?
Yes, you can pay in installments to reduce your total
outstanding loan.
Security
Why do I have to add my BVN?
Your BVN is strictly for identity verification to help us kick
against identity theft and protect your funds and
transactions.
Are my card details safe?
Your security is our topmost priority. We warehouse your card
details with a PCI-DSS compliant payment processor,
Paystack
for your security.
