  2. Browse for loans: Browse the list of loans on offer. Pick the one that suits you based on the available information.
  3. Transfer the funds: Start your investment, transfer the money according to the amount of the loan you have chosen to finance
  4. Reap the yields: When the loan is due, you will get your money back along with the interests.
  5. Repeat step number 2 and 4 and grow your investment.

BE A SMART INVESTOR

Before starting your investment, you should have as much information as possible about the investment product you are choosing. What are the information you need to know before choosing one of the loans to fund in Mekar?
  1. Look at the number: For starters, you need to know the amount of the loan you want to fund. This is the value of your investment. You also need to know the amount of profit you can get and the loan's tenure.
  2. Know the borrower: You can get information about the borrowers' profile, when they start their businesses, where they are located and in what sector they are operating.

GROW YOUR MONEY

Don't let your money sit in the bank. If you have been saving your money in a bank savings account or a time deposit, you might want to reconsider that decision. A savings account gives you 1-2% a year in interest, sometimes even no interest at all, and a time deposit only offers a return of 5-6% a year. By choosing these saving instruments, you have limited your maximum potential yield, especially if you factor the inflation rate into the equation.

An online investment opportunity with a peer-to-peer system such as the one offered by Mekar will give you higher returns, up to 12.5% per year. It is also much easier to do than other investment options such as shares or property.

Investing in stocks can be time consuming as you have to first research some 350 different companies that are trading in the stock market before you can decide which one to buy. You will also need to watch the stocks' movement on the stock chart on a daily basis. And don't forget, stocks are very volatile.

On the other hand, starting an investment in property requires a huge amount of money and you may need to spend months to find the right property to invest in.

Here at Mekar you can find an easier, safer, more flexible and more profitable investment option. Start your investment now and you will help small businesses in Indonesia grow.
