Personal & consumer loans
Personal loan marketing that survives the most expensive auction in Indian lending.
Personal loan keywords are the most contested in the category. Winning means owning long-tail intent, eligibility and EMI tools, and landing pages good enough to justify a ₹250 click.

The borrower
How a personal loan borrower actually decides
Acquisition works when the funnel matches the decision. Here's the behaviour we build around.
- Searches on mobile, usually comparing three to five lenders in one sitting.
- Anchors on EMI and eligibility before interest rate — calculators outperform brochure pages.
- Abandons at document upload more than at any other step.
- Checks Google reviews and your Instagram before submitting a single field.
- Responds to WhatsApp follow-up far more reliably than email.
Channels we run for personal loan
All servicesWhat you get
What changes when personal loan marketing is run by specialists
Long-tail intent, not vanity heads
We target the eligibility, documentation, and comparison queries that convert, instead of burning budget on the two words every lender bids on.
Calculators as acquisition assets
EMI, eligibility, and prepayment tools that rank organically, earn links, and capture bottom-of-funnel borrowers your blog never will.
Compliance-clean creative
No guaranteed-approval language, correct APR and fee disclosure — ads that clear Google and Meta review on the first submission.
Drop-off recovery
Retargeting and WhatsApp sequences built specifically from application abandonment, not generic site visitors.
Bilingual reach
Hindi keyword and creative coverage that opens up Tier-2 and Tier-3 demand at a fraction of English CPCs.
One accountable number
Blended cost per approved application across organic, paid, and social — reported in one live dashboard.
The gap
Why personal loan campaigns quietly lose money
Most accounts we inherit are not badly managed — they are optimised for the wrong endpoint.
What usually happens
- Optimised to form submits, so the ad platform learns to buy cheap unqualified leads.
- One landing page for every loan product and every keyword theme.
- Broad match with almost no negative keyword hygiene.
- Copy written by a generalist, rewritten twice after policy rejections.
- SEO and paid teams bidding against each other on the same queries.
How we run it
- Conversion signals sent back from approved applications, not form fills.
- Dedicated landing page per product, per intent cluster, per language.
- Exact and phrase discipline with weekly search-term pruning.
- Every asset compliance-reviewed before it reaches a platform reviewer.
- One roadmap where organic takes the queries paid should stop paying for.
