Crediflow Loan Repayment Methods

Crediflow offers automatic collections and several alternatives for borrowers who prefer to pay manually.

Automatic Repayment Through DebiCheck

When a loan is issued, a debit order is arranged against the borrower's registered bank account.

Crediflow uses DebiCheck, a bank-authenticated debit order system. The borrower must first approve the mandate through their bank. On the agreed repayment date, the instalment is deducted automatically.

Manual Repayment

Customers can make additional payments or settle outstanding amounts through their personal accounts. Crediflow also provides payment links by SMS or email.

The available payment methods include:

• Capitec Pay: Authorise the transaction through the Capitec banking app.
• Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT): Pay using the supported online banking process.
• Ozow: Select your bank and confirm the transaction through your banking app.
• Pay@ in-store payments: Generate a payment reference and use it at a participating Pay@ store.
• Bank card: Enter your card details and complete any required 3D Secure verification.
• Google Pay: Confirm the transaction using Google Pay.
• Apple Pay: Complete the payment through Apple Pay.

To pay manually, customers should sign in to their Crediflow account, open the relevant loan, select the amount and click the repayment option.

Crediflow credits received payments in the following order: outstanding interest, unpaid fees or charges, and then the principal debt.

Early Repayment, Loan Postponement and Overdue Payments

Paying Before the Due Date

Crediflow accepts early instalment payments. Any amount received before the scheduled due date is credited to the borrower's account.

If the payment does not cover the full outstanding instalment, the remaining balance must still be paid on the originally agreed date.

Customers can also request a settlement letter through their personal account.

Postponing a Crediflow Payment

Crediflow has a specific procedure for customers who need additional time to repay.

1. Log in to your personal account and submit a postponement request.
2. Pay the interest and fees that have accrued.
3. Review and sign the revised agreement.
4. Repay the full outstanding amount on the new due date in the following month.

The postponement requires an agreed arrangement with Crediflow. Borrowers should contact the company before their existing repayment date if they anticipate difficulties.

Consequences of Late Repayment

Overdue instalments can lead to additional charges and negative consequences for the borrower's credit record.

Crediflow encourages customers to discuss financial difficulties before missing a payment. Its support team can review the situation and consider available repayment arrangements.

Guidance for Bank Statements and DebiCheck

The platform provides video tutorials explaining how to obtain bank statements from Capitec, Absa, Access Bank, Standard Bank, FNB, Nedbank, TymeBank and Discovery Bank.

Separate instructions help borrowers approve DebiCheck mandates through major South African banks.
