All interest rates and charges are disclosed in writing in the executed loan agreement for each facility.

Section 04

Eligibility

To apply for a Loan Product, you must be at least eighteen (18) years of age, a citizen or legal resident of Sri Lanka, and legally capable of entering into a binding credit agreement. You must provide true, accurate, current, and complete information during the application process and promptly update such information if it changes.

Submission of an application does not constitute a guarantee of approval. ZION evaluates each application on its individual merits, including credit assessment, cash-flow analysis, business viability, and the adequacy of any security offered. ZION reserves the right to approve, decline, or condition any application in its sole discretion and is not obligated to disclose the reasons for any decision.

Section 05

Repayment Obligations

Borrowers agree to repay the principal together with all interest, charges, and any other amounts due under the loan agreement, strictly in accordance with the repayment schedule set out in the executed agreement. Repayment frequency (weekly, daily, or monthly) depends on the Loan Product selected and the terms agreed at disbursement.

Late or missed payments may attract additional charges, may be reported to credit reference agencies, and may affect the Borrower’s eligibility for future credit from ZION or other lenders. Borrowers experiencing difficulty meeting a scheduled payment are strongly encouraged to contact ZION in advance so that a reasonable accommodation may be explored.

Where security cheques or vehicle Certificates of Registration have been provided as collateral, ZION reserves the right to enforce such security in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the loan agreement in the event of default.

Section 06

Privacy & Data Protection

ZION takes the protection of Personal Information seriously. The information you provide through the Site — including your name, contact details, district, business type, loan product selection, loan amount, and any message — is collected for the purposes of evaluating your application, administering any resulting loan, communicating with you, and meeting legal and regulatory obligations.

We do not sell Personal Information to third parties. We may share information with service providers who support our operations (such as email delivery or cloud hosting), or with regulators and law-enforcement agencies where required by law. All such recipients are bound by appropriate confidentiality obligations.

By submitting an application you consent to ZION retaining your information for the duration of the application review, the life of any loan granted, and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping and audit purposes. To request access to, correction of, or deletion of your Personal Information, please contact executive@zioncommercialcredit.com.

Section 07

Risk Management

ZION applies a disciplined risk-management framework drawn from corporate-banking practice. This includes borrower-level credit assessment, prudent collateral requirements (such as security cheques and vehicle CRs where applicable), insurance cover for customers and employees, and dedicated policies to protect organizational income.

Borrowers acknowledge that borrowing involves financial obligation and risk. The information provided on the Site, including the loan calculator, is illustrative only and does not constitute financial advice. Borrowers should evaluate their own repayment capacity before entering into any loan agreement.

Section 08

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, ZION, its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, business, goodwill, or data, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or our services.

The Site and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. ZION does not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful elements, or that any information on the Site is accurate, complete, or current.

Section 09

Modifications to Terms

ZION may modify these Terms at any time by posting an updated version on this page. The “Last updated” date at the foot of this page indicates when the Terms were last revised. Your continued use of the Site or services following any change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Where a modification materially affects the rights of existing Borrowers under an executed loan agreement, the modification will not apply to such Borrowers except where required by law, and the originally executed loan agreement shall continue to govern.

Section 10

Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka. Any dispute which cannot be resolved amicably shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Sri Lanka.
