In business, every second and every shilling counts. Whether you are a small trader looking to restock fast-moving items or a mid-sized enterprise handling an unexpected opportunity, easy access to cash can make all the difference between a missed opportunity and a breakthrough.
Through the KB Mobile App, Kingdom Bank is empowering SMEs with instant access to unsecured mobile loans of up to Ksh 300,000!
Imagine you are at your supplier’s warehouse, and there is a flash sale on stock you move quickly, but you are short by Ksh 30,000. Instead of calling friends or scrambling for expensive short-term loans, you simply open your KB Mobile App, request a loan, and in minutes, the money hits your account. Just like that, business continues.
How SMEs Can Tap Into This Digital Boost
Download and Log In
If you are a Kingdom Bank customer, simply download the KB Mobile App from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store and log in securely.
Check Your Limit
The app will display your loan eligibility, up to Ksh 300,000, based on your transaction history and activity.
Request and Receive Instantly
Select the loan amount you need, accept the terms, and the funds land straight into your Kingdom Bank account. It’s that fast.
Repay Flexibly
Loans come with clear, manageable repayment terms so you can repay as your business grows, without strangling your cash flow.
You can also use the USSD *344# to get the loan
Steps to Get a Loan via *344#
Dial the USSD code
Open your phone dialer and enter *344#, then press call. This launches the Kingdom Bank mobile banking menu.
Enter your PIN
If prompted, input your USSD/mobile banking PIN to securely access your account.
Check your loan limit.
From the menu, select “Loan limit” or a similar option (typically labeled “Check loan limit”). This shows the maximum amount you’re eligible to borrow. Some posts note that you can simply “check your KB Mobile loan limit today” via *344#
Apply for the loan
After seeing your limit, choose “Apply for loan”, “Get loan”, or a similarly titled option. Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your amount (up to your limit) and enter any other required info (e.g., repayment period).
Confirm & receive funds
Once you confirm, the amount is instantly disbursed to your Kingdom Bank account or linked mobile money (e.g., M-PESA), depending on the setup.
Repay via USSD or bank options.
Use *344# to repay the loan when due, or repay directly via M-PESA Paybill, mobile app, internet banking (Digilife), or at a Kingdom Bank branch.
