How does credit work?

Every time you apply for a loan, lenders check your credit profile
to see if you have a good credit history.

If you pay your loans back on time it affects your credit profile positively.

If you pay late or miss payments it affects your credit profile negatively.

What is a credit report?

A credit report is a description of your credit history and payment behaviour that is maintained by credit bureaus, including TransUnion.

It contains information such as your name, address, employer name and Omang number—the details you give to lenders when completing a credit application form.
