Understanding purchase limits

Learn about Alya's purchase limits and what you can buy.

Alya allows you to split purchases between 500 MAD and 15,000 MAD into flexible installment payments. This guide explains how purchase limits work and what you can buy.

Purchase amount limits

Every purchase made with Alya must be within these limits:

Minimum purchase: 500 MAD

Maximum purchase: 15,000 MAD

These limits apply to each individual purchase, not your account overall.

What this means

You CAN:

  • Make multiple purchases of different amounts

  • Have several active purchases at the same time

  • Make a 500 MAD purchase and a 2,000 MAD purchase on the same day

  • Shop at different stores with Alya

You CANNOT:

  • Make a purchase under 500 MAD

  • Make a purchase over 15,000 MAD

  • Split a 250 MAD purchase (too small)

  • Split a 20,000 MAD purchase (too large)

Multiple purchases

You can have multiple active purchases with Alya at the same time. There is no limit to how many purchases you can have, as long as each one is between 500 and 15,000 MAD.

Example:

  • Purchase 1: 2,500 MAD smartphone (paying in 4 installments)

  • Purchase 2: 5,500 MAD laptop (paying in 3 installments)

  • Purchase 3: 800 MAD headphones (paying in 2 installments)

All three purchases are active, and you make payments on each according to their schedules.

How to check purchase eligibility

When shopping in-store:

  1. Tell the cashier you want to use Alya

  2. The cashier will enter your purchase amount

  3. The system will check if it's within limits

  4. If approved, choose your payment plan

  5. Complete your first installment

If your purchase is:

  • Under 300 MAD: You'll need to add more items or pay another way

  • Over 15,000 MAD: You'll need to split into separate purchases or pay another way

Managing multiple purchases

Viewing your purchases:

  1. Log into your Alya account

  2. Go to Purchases

  3. See all active and completed purchases

  4. View payment schedules for each

Making payments:

  • Automatic payments are charged to your saved card

  • You can make early payments anytime

  • View upcoming payments in the app

  • Get reminders before each payment

Tips for successful shopping

  1. Check your purchase amount - Make sure it's between 500 and 15,000 MAD

  2. Consider your budget - Can you afford the installments?

  3. Plan multiple purchases - Space out large purchases if needed

  4. Keep track of due dates - Know when payments are coming

  5. Update payment methods - Keep your card information current

What affects purchase approval?

Even if your purchase is within limits, approval depends on:

Complete profile - All information verified

Payment history - Past payments made on time

Active purchases - Current payment obligations

Payment method - Valid card with sufficient funds

Frequently asked questions

A: No, 15,000 MAD is the maximum for any single purchase.

Q: Why can't I make a 200 MAD purchase?

A: The minimum purchase amount is 500 MAD to make installment payments worthwhile.

A: There's no limit to the number of active purchases, as long as each one is within the amount limits.
