INTRUST
Platform for purchasing goods in installments without bank loans, proof of income and credit history
Platform status
INTRUST
A model of access to economic resources based on traditional banking principles is hopelessly outdated. Billions of people around the world are deprived of opportunities to improve their quality of life and to develop their potential.
ApplicationScore 00.00
Declined
Employed, paid, and still invisible to the scoring model.
No file to score, therefore no offer at all.
Revenue today, collateral demanded for yesterday.
Interest is not an option, ownership still is.
INTRUST
Intrust underwrites people the bureau has never seen. Five years of repayment history turned into a socio-behavioural model that reads the signals a payslip cannot.
0%
Positive solvency forecast accuracy
Measured on 8 000 files across four countries, on cash loans, goods and services.
If a client stops paying, the partner is still paid. The Guarantee Fund covers the contract in full — funded by cash reserves, platform income and own capital.
INTRUST
A bank sells the customer a loan and keeps the interest. Intrust sells the merchant a bigger basket and leaves the margin inside the deal.
+38%
Average basket on installment deals
Installments turn a browsing customer into a paying one. The basket stops being limited by what is in the wallet today.
0
Share taken by a bank
The installment margin is not handed to a bank. It stays inside the deal, split between the platform and the merchant.
100%
Cover on concluded contracts
Goods sold in installments are paid for by the Guarantee Fund even when the client defaults.
3
Functions handled for the partner
Marketing, legal and accounting support come with the platform, not as a separate invoice.
INTRUST
The whole relationship happens on a phone. Six minutes from opening the app to a signed contract — no branch, no paperwork, no proof of anything a migrant worker cannot produce.
A phone number and an SMS code. No branch, no queue, no appointment.
Passport or ID photographed from both sides, plus a selfie holding it.
The model answers while the client waits. No proof of income, no proof of address.
A simple electronic signature closes the contract. The seller sees it immediately.
INTRUST
The same five questions a merchant asks before choosing who finances the basket — answered side by side. Three bars mean the best answer in the row.
| Criterion | Intrust | Banks | BNPL | Markets |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Requirements for customersHow much paperwork stands between a buyer and the goods | Minimum | High | High | High |
| AssortmentWhat the buyer is actually allowed to finance | Wide | Wide | Middle | Middle |
| Income of sellersWhat the merchant takes home from the same basket | High | Middle | Middle | Middle |
| MarginWhere the installment premium ends up | High | Middle | Middle | Middle |
| TermHow long the money stays tied up in one contract | Middle | Long | Middle | Long |

INTRUST
Thirty corridors, four of them with a desk on the ground. Every point is a market where migrant workers earn in one currency and support a household in another — which is exactly the gap installments close.

INTRUST
A lending team, not a startup crew: underwriting, risk and payments built by people who had run all three before.

Risk and scoring
