Banking made easier on Akani app
JOBURG - With the launch of a fast-response cellphone app, spending hours in a bank or waiting days for credit finance approval is now a thing of the past.
In the fast-paced Joburg lifestyle, Keystone Sono, CEO of Akani Solutions, recognised the need in our modern society for an app that would allow people to view their credit record in a private and timely manner.
It is so often that the purchase of a car, house or even a cellphone can mean maximum stress for the buyer when waiting for credit approval, with minimum results once they’ve discovered that their credit bureau status isn’t quite up to par.
The Akani Credit Report App is now available for free download on the Google App Store.
This app allows its users to submit their personal and financial details, and receive their credit report within five minutes.
It has been recognised by Credit Ombud, Nicky Lala-Mohan, as an innovation that will allow consumers more control over their financial dealings.
“It also serves as a safety feature – to avoid identity theft – and [allows consumers to] negotiate better interest rates,” said Mohan.
“Knowing what is on your credit report means that you can take control of [your] financial health and start making more conscious decisions with [your] money, instead of finding out about adverse listings or judgements when you want to apply for credit and are turned down.”
The credit report app is also equipped with a number of other functions, which include identity monitoring – something that is especially useful in these modern times where identity theft is so rife.
The innovative and convenient app was launched on 14 July with high hopes and infinite potential and is even already used by a number of high profile personalities including TV personality Masingita Masunga.
