The lending rules are applied the same way to every member. Eligibility is worked out from your record, not from who you know.
Save Together, Grow Together, Build a Better Tomorrow
SecularM Sacco is a savings and credit co-operative. Its funds come from its members, its lending goes back to its members, and the rules it lends by are set by the membership rather than by an outside institution.
Members contribute monthly, building both their own savings and the common pool the SACCO lends from. When a member needs credit, that pool is what makes it possible — which is why repaying on time matters to everyone, not just to the borrower.
Every contribution, loan and repayment is recorded and visible to the member it belongs to through the member portal.
The lending rules are applied the same way to every member. Eligibility is worked out from your record, not from who you know.
You can see your savings, loans and repayments whenever you want, and every decision the system makes about your eligibility comes with the reason behind it.
Any surplus the SACCO makes belongs to the membership. We exist to serve the people who own us, not shareholders outside.
The SACCO is run by a committee elected from and accountable to the membership.
Membership is open to anyone able to save consistently and willing to abide by the SACCO's by-laws. New members are admitted by the management committee.
