About Me

I am currently working as a legal assistant at a law firm in Lusaka, Zambia. My salary from this job is not enough to sustain me so I am trying to raise funds to open up my own Airtel money booth to give me extra income.

My Business

Airtel money booths make money when customers come to deposit or withdraw money from their Airtel money accounts. The key is to have a booth an area where there is a lot of traffic in order to maximise on the profits. I plan to use the money made from this project to open up more booths. I recently received a Zidisha loan of ZMW1,288 which I repaid on time. I am still trying to raise enough money for the Airtel money booth.

Loan Proposal

I am in need of a loan in order to pay for the Airtel money service as well as the Airtel money booth. Starting up this business will enable me to increase my monthly income and will also help me empower others around me. I expect to make back the money and repay the loan in less than 6 weeks.

    Thank you for the loan. I will use the money to open up an Airtel money booth. It will help me empower other people by creating employment for the individual that will work at the booth. I aim to open up many more booths.

    This is a good business idea. When someone gets a good job in the city, they can use airtel to send money home to their family.

    The previous loan was used to invest in an airtel money booth. However, I was not able raise the full amount. Therefore, I need to borrow a larger amount which will enable me to pay the full deposit as well as the booth.
