Why you should choose Citibank Quick Cash Loan

#1: Competitive interest rates

New-to-bank customers can enjoy competitive interest rates from as low as 3.45% p.a. (EIR 6.50%). Another money-saving perk? There are no processing fees you need to deal with.

Customers already holding a Citibank account can get hold of the cash disbursement as quickly as a day. Otherwise, the approved loan amount will be credited to your choice of account within 3 to 5 working days.

The Citi Quick Cash loan can be drawn down from the available credit limit for existing Citibank credit card holders.
