MARU Credit, a premier Tier IV financial institution, has unveiled an inspiring back-to-school initiative that offers customers and parents the chance to have their school fees fully covered for one academic year. Under the "Back-to-School With MARU" campaign, individuals who secure affordable school fees loans will automatically be entered into a draw to win a year's worth of free school fees along with additional instant prizes.
During an appearance on NBS Television’s Breakfast show on May 15, 2025, Marketing and Customer Experience Manager Leah Kanziga explained, “Our MARU School Fees Loan is crafted to provide timely and practical support, enabling parents to send their children back to school without the burden of financial stress. We understand the pressures families experience during the back-to-school season.” The loan offers access to up to sh10 million within 24 hours at a competitive interest rate of 2.5% per month on a reducing balance. For the duration of the campaign, processing fees are waived and repayment terms extend up to four months.
In addition to the loan offering, MARU Credit is rolling out a host of exciting rewards. Parents who engage with the MARU Credit team at select supermarkets will be able to spin a prize wheel and win shopping vouchers, trolley dashes, and essential back-to-school items such as pens and books. Kanziga added, “We aim to make the back-to-school process both less stressful and more rewarding. Our campaign is not solely about providing financial solutions—it’s about nurturing enduring relationships with our customers and supporting them in reaching their goals. We encourage parents and guardians to seize this opportunity to secure their children’s education.”
With branches in Ntinda and Bugolobi, MARU Credit boasts a diverse portfolio of financial products that include vehicle and asset financing, logbook loans, personal loans, and business loans, all tailored to meet the varied needs of its clientele. Kazinga further emphasized that the MARU School Fees Loan is the newest addition to their product range, reinforcing the institution’s commitment to delivering accessible and customer-centric financial solutions.
