It tracks your monthly expenses in an automated and secure manner so that you can stick to your budget, pay your bills on time, and save extra money while you're at it! Walnut also helps you track how much you spend on food, shopping, groceries, and other expenses, as well as how much you save every month.
Slice
We believe the demand for credit is growing at an exponential rate in this country. More and more people are looking towards credit to cover unexpected bills and immediate cash-crunch issues. Its no shock then, that Slice is rapidly growing in brand value. Slice is a Buy-Now-Pay-Later card that provides credit options without the need for extensive verification and even supports financing to those who may have irregular income streams or bad credit scores.
Dhani
Dhani offers accessible personal loans through their app and boasts about approving loans ranging from INR 3,000 up to INR 3 Lakh, in less than 3 minutes. Customers who repay their loans on time and on schedule are then approved to receive larger loan amounts on subsequent loans from the company. Dhani clients also earn points by using the Dhani app or Dhani card to make purchases, allowing them to earn more or effectively reduce their EMIs.
