1. What is the Tala Kenya Loan Calculator?

The Tala Kenya Loan Calculator helps you estimate the total repayment amount for a Tala Kenya loan based on the principal amount, daily interest rate, and loan duration in days.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the Tala Kenya loan formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Principal loan amount (KES)
• \( daily\_rate \) — Daily interest rate (decimal, e.g., 0.003 for 0.3%)
• \( days \) — Loan duration in days

Explanation: The formula calculates the total interest by multiplying the principal by the daily rate and number of days, then adds this to the principal to get the total repayment amount.

3. Importance of Loan Calculation

Details: Understanding your total repayment helps with financial planning and ensures you can comfortably repay the loan without straining your finances.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the principal amount in KES, daily interest rate as a decimal (e.g., 0.003 for 0.3%), and loan duration in days. All values must be valid (principal > 0, rate ≥ 0, days ≥ 1).
