The new credit service will provide working capital cushion to Arzooo’s partner stores, especially during the time when the retail is just on its way to recovery from months of halt. With Arzooo Credit, retailers can avail from Rs 1,00,000 to 10,00,000 credit on Arzooo platform. At present, the service is open to over 5000 retailers across 10 cities.

Arzooo Credit is one of its kind digital lending solution that allows retailers access to a fully digital and paperless model to avail credit facility. The platform also enables a simple on touch re-payment option for stores to pay back.

Arzooo Credit is a significant step forward in creating a working capital headroom that will help store owners conduct their business seamlessly.”

To avail the Arzooo Credit facility, a retail store can share his expression of interest digitally in one tap on Arzooo App and within 24 hours, the service will get activated for the store in his Arzooo App account. Thereafter, he can use the credit-lending feature for all his future transactions.

He further adds, “Besides working capital, the idea of Arzooo Credit is to create a hassle-free transaction and a frictionless customer journey on the platform.”
