What it's for

Money for the stock and shop you already run

Pick what the money is for when you send your request. If it's none of these, choose “Something else” and tell us in a line.

  • Buy stock

    Restock fast-moving phones and laptops before a busy season, or take a bulk offer from a supplier before the price moves.

  • Working capital

    Cover the gap between paying your supplier and getting paid by your customers.

  • Expand your shop

    Take a second stall, open a branch in another market or fit out a bigger space.

  • Equipment

    Buy the tools your business runs on: repair equipment, display cases, a laptop for the shop.

Who can apply

Financing requests are open to dealer (seller) accounts. Today that means dealers who sell phones, laptops, accessories or other electronics, or run a repair business: the categories live on Dealrs. What matters most is your track record on Dealrs, so dealers who have verified and have been recording their trade in the Dealer Hub give us more to go on.

How it works

From request to decision

  1. Open Financing

    In the Dealer Hub at my.dealrs.io, or in the Dealrs app.

  2. Tell us what you need

    The amount (₦10,000 to ₦100,000,000), what it's for and whether you'll pay back over 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. You can add a rough monthly sales figure and the phone number we should call.

  3. We review and call you

    Your request shows as Sent, then In review. We look at your Dealrs activity and call you to talk it through.

  4. You get a decision

    We aim to decide within a few working days. Every request is reviewed on its own merits, so approval isn't guaranteed.

What each status means

As you'll see it in the Hub and the app.

  1. Sent

    We've received your request with the details you gave us.

  2. In review

    We look at your Dealrs activity and call you on the number you gave us.

  3. ApprovedorNot approved

    We tell you the outcome. If it's a yes, we explain the terms before you agree to anything.

  4. Withdrawn

    You withdrew the request while it was open. You can send a new one afterwards.

  • We aim to decide within a few working days
  • One open request at a time
  • Withdraw it while it's Sent or In review
  • Sending a request doesn't commit you to anything

How we review

What Dealrs looks at

We don't decide on a form alone. We look at how you actually trade on Dealrs, and then we talk to you.

Your Dealrs activity

  • VerificationWhether your identity and your store are verified.
  • Invoices recordedThe sales you record as invoices in the Dealer Hub.
  • StockThe inventory you keep in the Dealer Hub.
  • ListingsYour sell listings on the marketplace.
  • Time on DealrsHow long you've been trading on Dealrs.
As part of the review we call you, so give us a phone number you answer.

When you send a request, you agree that Dealrs can use your Dealrs sales, stock and verification details to assess it.

How to strengthen your request

None of these guarantee approval, but each one gives us a clearer picture of your business, and they make your shop easier to run anyway.

  • Verify your identity and store

    Complete identity verification and, if you can, store verification. How it works.

  • Record your sales as invoices

    Invoices in the Dealer Hub are a record of real trade. A few months of them says more than any form can.

  • Keep your stock up to date

    An inventory that matches your shelves shows you know your business.

  • Keep your listings current

    Active, accurate listings show you're trading. Remove items you no longer have.

We don't publish rates on this website. If your request moves forward, we'll explain the terms, including any costs and the repayment schedule, before you agree to anything.

How long does a decision take?

Can I withdraw a financing request?

Yes. While your request shows as Sent or In review, you can withdraw it from Financing in the Dealer Hub or the Dealrs app. We stop reviewing it, and you can send a new request afterwards.
