Frequently asked questions

Everything, before you borrow

Does TerePay decline applications?
Yes, TerePay can decline applications if the applicant does not meet the minimum lending criteria. As a responsible lender, TerePay makes reasonable checks to confirm that, based on the information you provide, it is likely that the loan will meet your requirements and objectives, and that you can repay without suffering substantial hardship. TerePay may decline an application for a number of reasons, including: 1. Low credit score / active defaults – if you have an active credit default or a history of missed payments. 2. High loan commitments – if you already have existing debts, and adding another loan may cause substantial hardship. 3. Persistent overdraft or negative bank balances – if bank statements show continuous overdraft usage with high interest rates. 4. Unstable income / irregular earnings – if your income is inconsistent or does not support loan repayments. 5. Incomplete or fraudulent application – if documents are missing, incorrect, or if required identity checks cannot be completed. 6. Recent loan restructuring – if your previous loan had to be restructured, indicating difficulty in repayment. However, you may reapply once your financial situation has improved and meets our lending criteria. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
