THE PROBLEM

A Financed Phone Keeps Working Long After the EMIs Stop

Every phone sold on EMI is two things at once: a sale and a loan. Most businesses handle the sale well. Once a borrower goes quiet, though, collections is left with calls and messages and no real leverage.

Field visits cost more than many handsets are worth. Meanwhile the device stays in use, payments stay overdue, and defaults quietly turn into write-offs.

HOW IT WORKS

How the EMI Locker Works

A mobile EMI lock ties the phone to its loan in five steps.

01
Enroll at the point of sale:

Activate the device through the retailer app, the Android SDK or the API, with loan details attached.

STEP 01
02
Set your policy:

Choose grace days, overdue bands, notices and which restrictions apply at each stage.

STEP 02
03
Remind automatically:

Payment reminders go out by SMS, notification and on-screen alerts before anything is restricted.

STEP 03
04
Restrict on default:

Once an account crosses your threshold, restrictions apply remotely. Calls, SMS and emergency SOS stay working.

STEP 04
05
Unlock on payment:

The borrower pays from a branded lock screen and access returns within seconds, with no ops team needed.

  • DLC (app and SDK-based) or native OEM locking for high-volume programs
  • Graduated restrictions by overdue band, with full audit logs
  • Role-based access for risk, collections and compliance teams

Confirm your exact policy with your compliance team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about EMI lockers, RBI rules and getting started.

An EMI locker is software on a financed phone that links it to its loan. If EMIs stay unpaid past the period in the loan agreement, the lender can restrict the phone remotely, and access returns once dues are paid.

Yes, within limits. Under RBI's August 2026 directions, a lender may restrict only a device bought with that loan, only when the agreement allows it, and only after 30 days past due. Calls, SMS and SOS must keep working, and access must return within one hour of payment.

Most Android phones, including Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo and Realme. Confirm your target brands with our team during the demo.

The lock or unlock command waits in a queue and runs as soon as the phone reconnects to any network.

No. Retailers can start with the Loksiz EMI locker app. Lenders who want full automation can connect through the REST API and Android SDK.

Within seconds of your payment gateway confirming the payment, with no manual step.
