Nepal Telecom Partners to Launch Prepaid User Loan Service
Key Takeaways
- NTC to launch a prepaid loan service in partnership with Hemant Trade Center
- Available to both GSM and CDMA prepaid users, with no extra charges during repayment
- Expected to go live in approximately five months from the announcement
Nepal Telecom has announced a new initiative to enhance service for its prepaid customers by introducing a loan service. The telecom giant has formed a collaboration with Hong Kong-based Hemant Trade Center to roll out this credit option for both GSM and CDMA prepaid users. This move comes several years after Ncell launched its successful Sapati loan service in 2012, which has been widely appreciated by its customer base for offering instant airtime credit without extra fees.
While NTC has not disclosed the exact loan amount available, they have confirmed that users will not face any additional charges when settling the loan through recharge transactions, making it a convenient financial solution. The service is scheduled to become operational within five months from the date of the announcement, providing a timely boost for customers who find themselves needing immediate credit during important tasks or when a recharge is impractical.
