Borrow Responsibly with MyMulah
Fast access to cash should still come with clear, careful decision-making. Before you apply, make sure you understand your repayment amount and can afford to repay the loan on the agreed date.
Before taking out a payday loan, ask yourself:
- Do I really need to borrow this amount?
- Can I afford the repayment on my salary date?
- Have I checked the interest, fees, and repayment estimate?
- Is this for a short-term need rather than an ongoing debt?
If you are unsure whether you can repay on time, it may be better not to apply. Learn more about our fast loans to see if they are right for you.

Repayment Terms
All payments are collected via debit order in a single payment direct from your bank account on the date of your next payday.
Contract Renewal
Our renewals are not automatic. New loan offers and loan extensions will be handled as a new loan agreement, and the same interest rates will apply for these loans.

Non-payment of your account will result in an R60 service fee and 5% interest added every month. Failure to repay a loan will lead to Credit Reference Agencies being notified and potential legal action being taken, both of which could impair your credit score.
