What the Infinix Wallet Offers

Instant Credit

Instant Credit is a featured digital credit account for Infinix mobile users that offers a minimalist and convenient experience for users. Without the complicated application process of a traditional credit card, users can quickly open an Instant Credit account with third-party financial institutions and use credit to pay as they go, allowing for a quick turnaround of small payments.

Instant Credit helps users to build their personal credit profiles with the Infinix Wallet by providing a high initial credit limit, which allows users to increase their credit line over time building up a credit history by making payments on time. Instant Credit also provides Infinix users with customized benefits such as zero processing fees, zero account management fees, zero annual fees and free interest of up to 16 days.

Load Bank Cards & Manage Funds

Infinix Wallet enables full online management of all users’ bank cards, providing a digital, visual and card-less fund management experience. By adding a third-party bank card to Infinix Wallet, a user can check balances, transfer funds, pay for goods, make repayments and classify spending statistics. This combined provides an intelligent, convenient and clear view of personal wealth management, income and expenses.

Simple Digital Finances
