A Decade of Financial Empowerment: Home Credit Celebrates its Ten-Millionth Customer

It was a day filled with joy and excitement as Home Credit Philippines celebrated its 10th anniversary and commemorated a decade of being the Filipinos' trusted financial ally. At the grand event in SM Novaliches, the atmosphere was electric as the stage was set for a night of pure entertainment, with host Valeen Montenegro, and performances by renowned singers Darren Espanto and Moira Dela Torre lined up. It was a celebration for all audiences, especially for one lucky guest: Home Credit’s ten-millionth customer, France Janina "Ica" Abion

In August of this year, Ica, a 27-year-old mother and bank teller, began her exciting journey with Home Credit. She had been on the lookout for a smartphone that could fulfill her work demands during a visit to the Riverbanks Mall in Marikina City. However, the price tag of PHP 14,000 seemed out of reach for her at the time. Fortunately, a kind-hearted Home Credit sales associate came to her aid, presenting a solution that was both convenient and affordable.

Ica expressed her gratitude towards the sales associate for their friendly demeanor and informative guidance. They took the time to explain the terms and conditions of Home Credit, including the minimal requirements, the one-minute approval process, and various installment options. This interaction convinced Ica to choose Home Credit as her preferred payment method for the smartphone she desired.

During the transaction, Ica only had to pay a down payment of PHP 4,000 and opted for an 18-month installment plan. This allowed her to secure the smartphone she needed while effectively managing her monthly expenses with a payment of PHP 800.

Little did Ica know, a pleasant surprise awaited her just a few weeks after purchasing her new phone, leaving her already satisfied. While at work, she received a call from an unfamiliar number, causing her to hesitate in answering. After several attempts to reach her, Home Credit managed to get in touch through a text message and an email, informing her that she was the ten millionth customer of Home Credit.

Initially skeptical, Home Credit reassured her that it was indeed real. To formally honor Ica, the company organized a grand event on September 24, where she was awarded a total of PHP100,000 and her smartphone payment was waived. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Ica expressed her disbelief and appreciation, acknowledging the significant help it would provide for her growing family. She concluded by expressing her deep gratitude to Home Credit.

During the event, Sheila Paul, Chief Marketing Officer of HCPH, took a moment to reflect on Home Credit's incredible journey since its establishment in 2013.
