The NovaPay credit card, which appeared on the market nine months ago, has already become a notable player in the consumer lending segment. It has been issued to 55,000 customers, and the loan portfolio has reached UAH 540 million. The average loan amount per customer is almost UAH 16,000.
"In three quarters, the NovaPay credit card has moved from the ‘novelty’ category to the category of an everyday financial instrument. It is important for us not just to issue a loan, but to build a sustainable model of responsible use. The portfolio of UAH 540 million and the average limit used show a balanced load on customers. This means that the NovaPay card is used as a convenient payment instrument, not as an emergency solution," comments Bohdan Gryvko, Risk Management Director at NovaPay.
