## About the product

Kwaba is a **rent payment platform** for **renters and aspiring homeowners in Nigeria** that combines rent savings, rent financing, and emergency loans in one app.

Key capabilities include:
- **Rent savings**: Save daily, weekly, or monthly with **auto-save**, alone or with friends and family, and earn **7% per year** on unlocked plans or **8% per year** on locked plans. Savings are **NDIC-insured**.
- **Rent Now, Pay Later**: Kwaba pays your landlord or agent, usually **within 48 hours** of receiving your documents, and you repay in **monthly installments**. It covers homes, **shops, and offices**, and includes **rent insurance** against job loss, permanent disability, or death.
- **Partner-backed and family support**: Users with crypto, stocks, or savings at partner platforms can get rent paid instantly, and anyone can invite family and friends to contribute to their rent.
- **Emergency funds**: Active savers can take **instant loans of up to 40%** of their rent savings, and on-time repayments help build a **credit score** for better offers.

Available on **Web**, **Android**, and **iOS**. The homepage also mentions rent collection and renter screening for landlords.

Based in Victoria Island, Lagos, Kwaba targets Nigeria's large renter population, where rent is often due a year or more in advance, by turning one lump sum into savings plans or monthly repayments.
