What is iK Cash Advance?
iK Cash Advance is a business cash advance built around how your business earns. If you qualify, you can access upfront funding and pay it back through a percentage of your future card sales.
That means you pay more when business is busy and less when sales are slower. There’s no fixed monthly repayment, no compound interest and no long application process. Before you accept, you’ll see your offer amount, repayment percentage and total amount payable upfront.

It works best for businesses that take card payments often, like shops, restaurants, salons, spaza shops and online stores, because you pay it back through your card sales.
To qualify, you need to:
- Be an active iKhokha merchant for at least 6 consecutive months.
- Make more than R2 500 in sales per month.

Easy repayments
Your repayments move with your sales. Every time a customer pays by card, a small percentage goes towards your iK Cash Advance. On busier days, you pay back a little more. On quieter days, you pay back less. That means you’re not locked into a fixed monthly repayment when business slows down.You’ll see your repayment percentage and total amount payable before you accept your offer.
