Overview

What Is a Loan DSA?

1

A Direct Selling Agent (DSA), loan agent, or referral partner is an independent person or business that identifies genuine credit enquiries and supports an authorised application process. A DSA is not the lender and must not approve loans, set terms, collect information without consent or promise outcomes.

What the DSA Role Requires

Understand multiple finance products before referring a customer.
Learn where secured loans, unsecured loans, and cards differ in eligibility.
Follow compliant language without making approval or payout promises.
Use product-specific DSA guides for home loan, business loan, LAP and card leads.
Know what information should be collected before a lead is submitted.
Move from learning to registration only after understanding the role.

RBI outsourcing guidance makes the regulated entity responsible for its service providers and emphasises customer confidentiality, correct terms and appropriate conduct. A prospective partner should understand those responsibilities and the applicable partner terms before registering with Shreeji Finance.
