Cooperative Savings in Nigeria: The Complete Guide for SMEs (2026)

Everything Nigerian SMEs need to know about cooperative savings. Start from NGN 2,000/month and access loans at 5-15% APR.

What is a Cooperative Savings Plan?

A member-owned financial arrangement where people pool savings and access affordable loans from the pooled funds.

How Cooperative Savings Work

  1. Join a cooperative - traditional or digital like FedaCash.
  2. Save regularly - daily, weekly, or monthly.
  3. Build your savings - contributions grow over time.
  4. Access loans - typically 2-3x your savings at low rates.
