Micro Business Loans are offered to all members that have saved some money with Jamii Bora for a minimum of six weeks. The loans can be between 100 and 60,000 KSh, but not more than twice the member's savings. 10,000 KSh is the maximum first loan. The borrower pays 0.5% flat interest rate per week. The loan must be repaid within 50 weeks.
 
The borrower decides the number of weeks she wants to keep the loan and many borrowers choose to repay the loan in 3-5 months, some will clear their loans in just a few weeks. A borrower is free to repay the remaining loan balance at any time earlier than settled in the contract. Interest is charged only until the day the loan is fully paid.
