      Dear Matthews,

      You can find an overview with the credit limit on your “your credit limit” page. (www.zidisha.org/current-credit). Before taking out a large loan, you must first build creditworthiness by repaying small test loans over a period of time.

      Please read these page because it gives information about increasing your credit limit over time and also provides info about a credit limit bonus.

      More info about Zidisha can also be found on the Borrowers FAQ (www.zidisha.org/faq#borrowe...)

      Kind regards,
      Joost
      Team Zidisha
