Loan Disbursement Process

Once the loan application has been approved the next step is for the MFI to disburse the funds/money to the loan applicant. In microfinance this can be done a number of ways:

  1. Full loan amount is handed over in cash to loan applicant (in local mfi branch, or in the field)
  2. Full loan amount is disbursed to applicant through a third party like a local bank or post office, possibly through a cheque

In mifosx at present we support the following around loan disbursement:

Note: Support for multiple disbursements: Tranche loans or Top-up loans

At present this feature isnt support but are aware of their suitability to microfinance so are looking to implement and add these features in if we can get a customer on the other end to validate and test our approach to these features from their point of view.
