About Kiva
Kiva offers 0% interest loans that have helped thousands of entrepreneurs in the U.S. get the funding they need to launch or grow their small businesses. Kiva is also committed to helping small business owners achieve success, even after they repay their Kiva loans. One way Kiva does this is by reporting U.S. loan payments (disbursed as of January 2016) to Experian commercial credit reports.
