Small tickets only work when the process is nearly free

At ₹15,000 a loan, every manual step eats the margin. Loano automates the repeatable work — verification, paperwork, mandates, reminders — so lean teams can run real volume with real controls.

What breaks first at scale

Ticket-size economics

An hour of manual processing on a ₹15,000 loan is margin gone before the first repayment.

Repayment tracking by register

Dues tracked in registers and spreadsheets means late catches, missed penalties and quiet write-offs.

Lean teams, many hats

The same three people run sales, verification and collections — tools built for big desks don’t fit.

Board & auditor questions

Governance expectations don’t shrink with ticket size — the records still have to be there.

The playbook

How teams like yours run on Loano

Keep cost per file tiny

Borrowers self-serve the application and documents on the portal; AI reads and cross-checks so staff review instead of retype.

Collections without an army

Mandates registered at onboarding present EMIs automatically; reminders and payment links chase the rest.

Simple desks for lean teams

One pipeline, clear queues, automatic assignment — a three-person team runs like a department.

Answers for the board

Dashboards for the numbers, a two-layer audit trail for the questions behind the numbers.

In practice

Automation that pays for itself at small tickets

The smaller the loan, the bigger the share of it that process cost eats. Automation flips that arithmetic.

  • Auto-debit first — scheduled presentation through mandates makes the routine collection free.
  • Reminders that scale — due-date nudges by SMS, WhatsApp and email go out without anyone drafting them.
  • Effort where it matters — propensity ranking points limited staff time at the accounts it can still change.
★★★★★

With three people we now process what used to need eight. The portal collects the documents, the platform does the paperwork, and auto-debit means most repayments just arrive.
