useless app, I repaid their loan in time only to reapply but their money never reaches your mpesa account despite being approved, you email them only to get a false response that they have rectified only to go back to their app and find the same old problem... they failed me for more than I week untill I gave up, try them at your own risk

LIES,NO LOAN AS IT SAYS!!!!!📌 UNDERRATED
this app is just a waste of time. I keyed in my details correctly and they did not approve my loan request even and they are not giving any other chance to apply again 😒
it's now 5 months ad this app keeps telling me I don't qualify. why?? or you don't update loan limit
I dont know why tala has not made tala accessible on iPhone and iOS
dint get the loan
its good, though you need to have 24 hr call centre
I have been using Tala for some time, but unfortunately, I have never been approved for a loan. Every time I apply, my request is declined without a clear explanation, despite regularly using the app and providing the required information. I understand that loan approval depends on internal eligibility criteria, but the app should provide clearer feedback on what users need to improve to qualify. At the moment, my experience with Tala has been disappointing.
last loan 2016 since then I don't qualify I've made over 253 referrals don't you update your system
The app is so horrible,so don't bother downloading it😡😡 it doesn't work
can't even help you
I have not helped since june
cons, they will con you, don't try to download this app
why I can't pay loans through app
app no longer great.. after reaching 50k limit never late to pay a single loan.. over a period of over 9 years. they embarrassed me badly while at a restaurant confident I have 50k available they refused to loan me a single shilling.. upto now they say they is a technical issue.. you can't trust this app always check first to avoid what they put me through.. they are now back on track hope it stays this way.
tips for success
useless
weird. disapproval of applications due to a 2019 late payments, this is a lifetime
very useless!!!don't waste your time.
