Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the CFA product?
The Credit Finance Agreement (CFA) is a credit offered to customers for the purchase of goods - such as refrigerators, washing machines, furniture, tiles, televisions - as a replacement for the Hire Purchase (HP). It is repayable over a maximum period of 48 months. CFA allows customers to repay smaller amounts per month since the credit is spread over 48 months instead of the maximum 36 months for Hire Purchase (HP); this eases the customer's repayment capacity.
