Mi Credit has been running in India in a pilot format, and has already disbursed loans of over Rs 28 crores (approximately ~1 Cr \/ day) in November 2019. Over 20% of the users have availed the highest amount of loan Rs 1 lakh. Currently, Mi Credit services more than 10 states spanning across 1,500 pin codes, and aims to expand its availability to 100% of the pin codes (more than 19,000 pin codes) by the end of FY2019.
Mi Credit is an online curated marketplace for lending, to offer the personal loans to Mi Fans. The current lending partners are primarily NBFCs or Fintechs such as Aditya Birla Finance Limited, Money View, EarlySalary, Zestmoney and CreditVidya.
Mi Credit app will now come preloaded on all MIUI phones, and can also be downloaded from Google Play Store and GetApps, Xiaomi’s own app store.
Xiaomi said that first time users can complete the digital application form within five minutes, and repeat customers can avail a loan with one click disbursement. Once the loan is approved within minutes, the consumer has the option to choose the amount and the tenure of the loan. The digital advantage also shows in realtime disbursement of loans and lower interest rates. Since Mi Credit is designed as a platform with multiple lending partners, it ensures higher success rate, with higher loan amount at a lower interest rate than any other existing solutions in the market.
Mi Credit users can also check their credit score instantly on the app, for free, a service which is powered by Experian.
All user data on Mi Credit is stored securely in encrypted format in India through our partner Amazon Web Services Cloud Infrastructure.
