New Delhi : MIUI users in India can now gain personal loans from Rs 1,000 to Rs 1 lakh from the only loan provider listed on Mi Credit, Kreditbee. Xiaomi says that loans process can be initiated in 10 minutes through Mi Credit with simple KYC verification. All loan verification and user information input will be done on partner platforms, while Mi Credit only lists loan providers.

"Xiaomi provides internet services to give our users a complete mobile internet experience, and MIUI functions as an open platform for us to deliver our wide range of internet services, such as content, entertainment, financial services and productivity tools. The connectivity between our devices and the seamless integration between hardware and internet services enable us to provide our users with better user experience. Mi Credit is another big step in bringing an important internet service to India and we trust that our users would be able to truly benefit as the service becomes more sophisticated," said Manu Jain, Vice President, Xiaomi.

Kreditbee is the sole loan provider listed on the Mi Credit. While Xiaomi's loan lending platform is only for MIUI users, Kreditbee is available across the Android ecosystem via its mobile application, and will soon be available on the iOS platform some time soon. Therefore, non-MIUI users can also avail loans from Kreditbee.
