Who it suits

  • Adults with valid ID who are Salvadoran nationals living in El Salvador.
  • Borrowers who want cash in hand quickly using a disbursement code at an authorised point.
  • People who want a fixed rate with free early repayment on a small personal loan.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone chasing a lower rate, since Sofkredit quotes an APR of 10.74% to 18.06%.
  • Borrowers needing larger sums, since Creduma ES deals in amounts of from €12,000.
  • Applicants outside El Salvador, where Cashspace works in another currency, PHP 12 to PHP 36.

Deposit protection

Fiado App is a broker, not the lender itself, so the credit agreement sits with the lender you are placed with. A representative example is published for a small personal loan over a short term, which shows the total repayable before anyone signs. Read that example closely, since a short loan costs far more over its full term than the monthly instalment suggests.

The company behind it

The app is run by FIADO APP S.A. DE C.V., based in El Salvador. Support runs on email, chat and phone, so you can reach a person by phone or chat as well as by email, with a help centre for written answers. The operation covers a single market, so its eligibility rules and processes are set for that country rather than a wider region.

Frequently asked questions

What rate do I pay on a Fiado App loan?+

The published rate is 80.51% as an APR, and it is fixed, so fixed payments stay the same across the life of the loan rather than moving with a market rate. A representative example is given for a small personal loan, which makes the total repayable easy to weigh before applying.

What fees does Fiado App charge?+

Fiado App takes Variable commission for use of its platform, so the cost of using the platform changes with the loan you take. The published representative example for a small personal loan shows what is repayable in total, which is the clearest way to judge the full cost of borrowing here.

Who actually lends the money?+

Fiado App is a broker rather than the lender itself, so a third party provides the credit and the agreement carries that lender's terms. The product is a personal loan, personal, and the platform earns its commission for putting borrower and lender together.

How fast is the money after approval?+

Fiado App lists same day funding, and once a loan is approved the release is quick, with a disbursement code that lets you collect cash at an authorised point. The trade-off is that the speed sits alongside an APR of 80.51%, so convenience is paid for in the cost of the credit.

Who can apply for a loan?+

Applicants must be adults with valid ID who are Salvadoran nationals living in El Salvador, and they need an Android device to use the app. Fiado App also runs a hard credit check, so the decision rests on your credit file as well as your documents.

How much can I borrow, and for how long?+

Loan amounts sit at $100 to $5,000, and terms run 6 to 36, so the product suits smaller personal loans repaid over a shorter span. Larger sums belong to a different kind of product, and the representative example shows how quickly a short term adds to the total repayable.

Can I repay the loan early?+

Yes, early repayment is free, so settling the balance sooner carries no extra charge. That sits alongside fixed rates, fixed, so the instalment you have agreed does not rise later in the term, and clearing part of the balance early leaves the rest on the same terms.
