When to pick DiDi Préstamos
DiDi Préstamos charges a 150% CAT — half of what Kueski charges. The catch: you need an active history as a driver or frequent rider. On a 15,000-peso loan over 6 months, the savings against Kueski (which doesn't even lend over that term) come to 4,000–6,000 pesos.
When to pick Kueski
Kueski works as the quick-cash drawer for anyone without a DiDi history or who needs the money in the next hour. The 280% price only makes sense for emergencies under 8,000 pesos paid back within 30 days.
My recommendation
If you use DiDi, apply with them first. If not, check payroll loans from your bank before anything else — a fast loan at 280% should never be plan A.
How we compare these two
The figures in the table — CAT, amount, term — come from each institution’s public rate sheet, not from us, and the commercial relationship never changes them. The «cheaper» verdict weighs the total cost for a standard profile; your own CAT depends on your Buró and income, so treat the numbers as a starting point and confirm the final terms on the lender’s site before signing. The order of offers across the site follows our published methodology.
