Pros and cons
Pros
- The personal loan has an origination fee of 0 QAR and free early repayment is available, so clearing the balance early costs nothing extra.
- Borrowing runs from QAR 400,000 to QAR 2,000,000 over 48 to 72, which suits larger one-off purchases rather than small emergency top-ups.
- The savings account has a monthly fee of QAR 0 and a minimum deposit of QAR 500, with instant access and withdrawals at any time.
- It lends as a direct lender, not a broker, and also writes mortgages, cards and general insurance, so one relationship covers several money needs.
Cons
- Support runs on phone only, so there is no written channel listed for questions.
- Borrowing covers personal only, with no other loan type listed for the same application.
Who it suits
- Qatar residents who want easy access savings with instant withdrawals, no fixed term, a minimum deposit of QAR 500 and a monthly fee of QAR 0.
- Borrowers or savers who prefer a bank that also writes mortgages, credit and debit cards and general insurance from one provider.
Who should look elsewhere
- Cashspace suits applicants who cannot move a salary to a Qatari bank, since Cashspace lends from PHP 500 to PHP 25,000 while this personal loan needs a salary transfer.
- Creduma ES works in euros with amounts of from €12,000, so it suits borrowers living outside Qatar rather than salary transfer customers in Qatar.
