Read it free. Download it, or get the full Funding Pack when ready.

Why it works

Built around what appraisers actually check

Can you repay?

Our money check compares your monthly profit with the loan repayment - the first thing CDF, CEEC and banks look at - and tells you a safer amount if it is too tight.

Ready for the form

The Funding Pack gives you answers for the application form, a cover letter to the right office, and a cash flow for the whole loan period.

Nothing forgotten

A checklist of the documents your funder asks for - NRC copies, PACRA, quotations, tax clearance - so your application is complete the first time.

Questions

Will this guarantee I get the money?

No plan can guarantee funding - the decision belongs to the funder. What we do is make sure your plan is clear, your figures add up, your repayment is believable and your documents are complete, which is where most applications fail.

I am not good at writing English. Can I still use it?

Yes. Answer in Bemba, Nyanja, Tonga, Lozi, English or a mix, in short sentences. We write the plan in proper business English.

Are CDF loans open right now?

In September 2026 government paused new 2026 CDF empowerment loans while councils recover old loans. CDF grants for groups continue. Ask your council before applying for a loan - your plan will still be useful for CEEC, banks or microfinance.

How do I pay?

By MTN, Airtel or Zamtel mobile money, or with a voucher bought from a Masterplan agent. Your plan is unlocked as soon as payment is confirmed.

Are my figures and plan private?

Yes. Only you can see your plans. We never share them with funders or anyone else.
