Web site imparts SMS loans’ statistics

22.12.2008, 17:33

Since December we site www.kiirlaen.info imparts SMS loans’ statistics for previous months and also periodical searches, aripaev.ee reports.

This is unique statistics in Estonia which hadn’t been collected and published so far, Tõnis Hinnosaar, cofounder of the company Webistre Solutions OÜ announced today.

According to November’s report people are mostly interested in EEK 1000-2000 loans. They’re followed by EEK 2000-3000 and EEK 3000-4000 loans.

Mainly people are interested in two-weeks and one-month loans. After that people are seeking loans for maximum period, 6 months. It’s interesting that the interest in one-week loans is marginal, Hinnosaar commented.
