The Borrower acknowledges that he/she has applied for a loan from Aperta Capital Limited ("the Lender") in the amount specified in the loan application ("Capital"). By submitting a loan application, the Borrower agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
The loan is granted for the period specified in the loan application, starting from the disbursement date and as described in the Repayment Schedule.

The Borrower acknowledges that he/she is lawfully indebted to the Lender for repayment of the Capital together with interest and fees as accrued thereon. The Capital shall be disbursed at the discretion of the Lender, subject to the satisfactory completion of all application requirements and credit assessments. A service fee, as specified for the applicable loan type, will be deducted from the loan amount at the time of disbursement. Interest is calculated on the full loan amount.
The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a service fee (as a percentage of the loan amount) shall be deducted from the loan proceeds at disbursement. The service fee percentage is determined by the loan type selected and is clearly displayed prior to submission of the application. For example, if a service fee of 10% applies to a loan of K10,000, the Borrower will receive K9,000, while interest shall be calculated on the full K10,000.
The Capital lent and advanced by the Lender shall accrue interest at the rate specified in the loan application and Repayment Schedule. The Lender reserves the right to provide the Borrower with monthly statements reflecting the outstanding balance, interest accrued, and payments received.
The Borrower declares and warrants that he/she is gainfully employed or has a verifiable source of income sufficient to meet the repayment obligations under this Agreement. The Borrower undertakes to notify the Lender in writing immediately should his/her employment or income circumstances change materially.

Where a loan is classified as a Collateral Backed Loan, the Borrower agrees to pledge the specified assets as security for the loan. The Lender reserves the right to take possession of and dispose of the pledged collateral in the event of default, in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Zambia. The Borrower warrants that any collateral pledged is free from encumbrances and is legally owned by the Borrower.
If any amount is not paid by the Borrower on its due date, the full amount of Capital, interest, and all other amounts then outstanding shall become immediately due and payable at the sole discretion of the Lender. The Lender shall have the right to institute legal proceedings against the Borrower for recovery of all outstanding amounts.
The Lender reserves the right to restructure the repayment schedule on such terms and conditions it may deem fit:
Interest shall continue to accrue on the outstanding principal balance during the restructure process unless otherwise agreed in writing.
The Borrower agrees that a certificate signed by or on behalf of the Lender stating the amount of the Borrower's indebtedness shall be accepted as sufficient proof of such indebtedness in any legal proceedings.
The Borrower agrees that the Lender may disclose payment behaviour, defaults, and outstanding balances to credit reference bureaus operating in Zambia. This information may affect the Borrower's ability to obtain credit from other financial institutions.
The Lender shall have the right to cede, assign, or otherwise transfer any rights arising from this Agreement to a third party without the prior consent of the Borrower. The Borrower shall not cede or assign any of his/her obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Lender.
Notwithstanding any instruction by the Borrower, the Lender may, at its discretion, allocate any payments received in the following order: fees, interest, and then principal. The Lender reserves the right to change this order of allocation.
The Borrower acknowledges that under no circumstance in the process of settling any loan instalments or repayments will cash be paid to any staff member of Aperta Capital. All payments must be made through the designated payment channels communicated by the Lender.
