But what exactly is MoKash?
Think of it as your personal pocket genie, except instead of granting wishes, it grants short-term loans. It's like a magic money tree that grows on your phone, but instead of actual trees (which would be inconvenient in your pocket), it's an app (or USSD code, if you're old school).
Tip: Reread the opening if you feel lost.
How does this magical money tree work?
Here's the lowdown (don't worry, it's easier than climbing a real tree):
QuickTip: Keep a notepad handy.

- Be an MTN customer: This is like the first rule of MoKash Club. If you're not already an MTN member, you'll need to join the party first.
- Activate MoKash: Dial 1655# and follow the prompts. It's like the secret handshake to enter the magical money tree grove.
- Check your loan limit: Don't go overboard asking for a million bucks right away. Dial 1655# again, select MoKash, then "Savings and Loans," and finally, "Check Loan Limit." This will tell you how much MoKash is willing to trust you with (it gets to know you over time).
- Borrow your moolah: Once you know your limit, dial 1655#, select MoKash, then "Loans," and follow the prompts. It's like ordering a virtual pizza, but instead of greasy goodness, you get cold, hard cash (well, electronically deposited cash, but you get the idea).
Remember: There's a facilitation fee involved, which is like a finder's fee for the magic money tree. It's usually around 9%, so factor that in when planning your financial escape.
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.
But wait, there's more! (Because who doesn't love a good bonus?)
- Repay on time: This is crucial. MoKash isn't your sugar daddy; it expects you to pay back what you borrow. Late payments come with extra charges, and nobody likes extra charges unless they involve cheese on their pizza (and even then, it's debatable).
- Save with MoKash: While you're borrowing, consider saving some too. It shows MoKash you're responsible and might increase your loan limit in the future. Plus, saving is good for your financial karma (and future self).
So, there you have it! MoKash, your convenient and (somewhat) magical solution to temporary financial woes. Use it wisely, friends, and remember, with great financial power comes great responsibility (and maybe a budget spreadsheet or two).
QuickTip: Scan the start and end of paragraphs.
