Şekerbank expands instant financing for Turkish artisans through renewed TESK partnership

Şekerbank has renewed its collaboration with the Turkey Esnaf ve Sanatkârları Konfederasyonu (TESK) under the "Kapımız Esnafa Açık" platform. The agreement allows TESK‑member artisans to obtain up to 1.25 million Turkish lira in cash through the Şeker Mobile app without visiting a branch. Applications are completed in four steps and are provided without collateral or guarantees.

Şekerbank’s Deputy General Manager for Digital Solutions and Business Banking, Mustafa Çamlar, said the service speeds up access to finance for small‑business owners, a key factor for economic development. TESK President Bendevi Palandöken highlighted the importance of quick financing for artisans, who drive production, employment and local growth, and expressed confidence that the partnership will ease financial burdens and boost their contribution to the economy.
