Short-term loans
Terms for Obtaining Short-Term Loans

The terms for obtaining microloans are roughly the same across all microfinance organizations. As a rule, an MFI offers from 2,000 to 30,000 RUB for a term of 7 to 30 days. The maximum interest rate can reach 1% per day. Terms may vary depending on the chosen microfinance organization.
Some MFIs run promotional campaigns for new clients. Thus, borrowers who apply to a microfinance organization for the first time can take out a loan without overpayment, i.e., at 0% per day.
Borrower requirements
As a rule, microfinance organizations are more lenient toward their clients than banks. Therefore, their borrower requirements are much softer. Usually, a loan can be obtained by individuals who meet the following conditions:
- citizenship of the Russian Federation;
- having permanent or temporary registration within the territory of Russia;
- aged 18 to 70 years;
- fully legally capable at the time of application.
As for documents, very few are required. Usually, a passport and SNILS are enough to get a small loan approved. The borrower also needs a debit or credit card with a positive balance and any internet-enabled device.

Pros and Cons of Short-Term Loans

Let's start with the advantages:
- The biggest advantage is the speed of application approval. Large microfinance organizations make a decision to approve or reject within a few minutes of applying.
- Loyal attitude toward borrowers. Even people who would be guaranteed a bank loan refusal can get money from an MFI — those without a permanent source of income, without permanent registration in the country, or those who have had past overdue payments on other credit products.
- The ability to get money without leaving home. Almost all microfinance organizations operate remotely. Therefore, you can apply and get a loan from anywhere in the country.
- Minimal package of documents. MFIs do not request income and employment certificates — only a passport and SNILS are required to apply.
Now let's move on to the disadvantages:
- The most significant disadvantage of short-term loans is the very high interest rate. It often reaches 292% per annum compared to 20% per annum in banks.
- Small loan amount. It is rare to get more than 100,000 RUB from a microfinance organization. New clients can only apply for a maximum of 30,000 RUB.
- Short lending term. In fact, loans are issued until the next payday — the term rarely exceeds 30–35 days.
