When an Investment Note is listed on our Funding List, the following information will be shared:
It is important for P2P Investors to know the person and the business so that your personality shines through the Investment Note.
Once a P2P Investor has agreed to invest into an Investment Note, a Term Sheet will be provided which forms the Funding Contract between the Investor and the Issuer. This will have further information which is contractual in nature.
We highly encourage all our Issuers to choose ‘No’. microLEAP aims to be different from all the other P2P Financing platforms out there and the personal touch is what sets us apart from the rest. We will only show your profile picture and show a partial name of your business. P2P Investors are more likely to invest in your Note if they see a warm friendly face and know that you have nothing to hide.
An Issuer shall not be allowed to list their Investment Note concurrently for the same purpose on multiple P2P platforms.
An Issuer may be permitted to list on a P2P platform and an ECF platform at the same time, however, this must be clearly disclosed to microLEAP and its P2P Investors before listing.
You have 30, 60 or 90 days to raise your funds, called the Funding Period, from our P2P Investors.
microLEAP will have the sole discretion to add an additional 15 days to the Funding Period if we see that the funds raised is close to completion.
If you do not raise at least 80% of your Request for Funds by the end of the Funding Period, then your fund raising was unsuccessful and you will need to re-apply for Request for Funds.
microLEAP will have the sole discretion to add an additional 15 days to the Funding Period if we see that the funds raised is close to 80% complete.
No. Under SC rules, the Issuer is not allowed to keep any amount which exceeds the initial target amount.
If you have managed to raise at least 80% of your Request for Funds by the end of the Funding Period or you have managed to raise 100% of your Request for Funds before the end of the Funding Period, then your loan amount is available to be drawn-down from microLEAP’s Trust Account.
Once the incoming funds are cleared, we will disburse the loan, less our Listing Fee, to your business bank account as it states in your application.
Once you have raised the full amount requested or at least 80% by the end of the Funding Period, then you may drawdown your loan.
Repayments of Principal and Interest are done on a monthly basis and will start one month after drawdown.
Repayments may be done by Direct Debit, via our FPX payment gateway (online) or manually into our Maybank Trust account.
There is a seven (7) day grace period for late payments.
After the seven (7) grace period has lapsed, a late payment fee of 1% per day for the number of days overdue will be levied on the monthly repayment amount subject to a minimum of RM30.
If the Issuer does not settle their repayments after 30 days, then it is considered that the Issuer is in Default. We may attempt to restructure the repayments to minimize any loss to P2P Investors. Failing that, we will outsource the debt collection to a third-party Debt Collection Agency and if there is still no resolution then we will be forced to take legal action as a last resort.
CTOS and other credit agencies will be notified of your default. This may hinder your chances of borrowing funds in the future from microLEAP, banks or any other entity that uses credit agencies .
Depending on your credit risk rating and any loan amount outstanding, you may request for more funds. You are permitted to issue more than one Investment Note provided there is sufficient limit.
All Issuers are credit scored using our proprietary credit scoring engine. This allows our P2P Investors to make an informed decision before they make an investment.
Factors we will look at include your revenue, current outstanding debt, your credit history, your nature of industry and age of your business. We will also look at your Debt Service Ratio, which helps us see the ability that you can service your debt.
From the above credit data we will be able to determine the amount and tenor that you can borrow and also the interest rate that you can borrow at.
Note: The ability to pay your monthly repayments on time will also improve your overall credit risk rating for future Investment Notes issued on microLEAP
After you and your business is credit scored, you will be given a Funding Contract that lists our terms, the approved funding amount, interest rate, tenor and other important aspects of your loan. You will then need to fill in a simple Q&A that tells potential P2P Investors about your business.
Once done, your Investment Note is generated and it is listed on our Funding List for P2P Investors to invest in.
All Issuers, be it the applicant or key person appointed by you, will have Personal Accident insurance up to the outstanding loan amount that you have raised. This is provided by microLEAP via our Insurance Partner at no extra cost to you.
So in the case of accidental death or total / partial disablement, our Insurance Partner will cover the outstanding loan amount and microLEAP will arrange the pay out to all P2P Investors.
This ensures that you can focus on what you do best – expanding your business!

microLEAP, being a platform that matches Issuers with P2P Investors, is in the process of handling client funds. In that respect, it is very important for client funds to be segregated and separate from microLEAP’s own funds so that both sets of funds never intermingle. To ensure this, microLEAP has appointed a Trustee to be the custodian of client funds.
microLEAP has two (2) trust accounts. The Investor Trust Account, where P2P Investors’ funds are kept before disbursement of the loan, and the Issuer Trust Account, where Issuers pay their monthly repayments into.
As an Issuer, microLEAP will charge you 2 types of fees:
Note: Listing Fees are charged on a one-off basis and they are dependent on the size of issue, drawdown history with microLEAP, and credit rating.
Listing Fees are deducted before disbursement of your borrowed funds.
