Live life on your own terms with flexi payments from Skyro

No need to second-guess our decisions when it comes to purchasing our dream home appliances, gadgets and furniture! 

Whether it’s an item in our online cart or something we spotted at our favorite store, checking out just got easier with this exciting news: Skyro, one of the fastest growing financial technology (fintech) companies in the country, has introduced Skyro Flexi – a unique feature that allows customers to easily modify their payment terms at any time, with no paperwork or questions required. 

Skyro has introduced Skyro Flexi, a new feature that allows customers
to easily modify their payment terms, any time.

Skyro was first introduced in Mindanao in May 2023, and following its successful launch in the region, it became a natural choice for the launch of our flagship product feature, Skyro Flexi in November 2024. Two months since its nationwide launch, almost 4,000 unique customers have already availed of the Skyro Flexi. 

“Unlike the traditional loans where repayment terms have fixed due dates and amortization amounts, Skyro Flexi lets borrowers adjust their payment schedules and amounts instantly through the Skyro app. That’s ultimate flexibility and control whenever you need it,” explained Skyro’s Head of Product Dmitriy Vavulidi.

This new loan feature was introduced in line with the company’s mission to empower Filipinos with financial solutions that help them overcome challenges, enabling them to focus on what truly matters — living a better life and sharing happy moments with their loved ones. With this new loan innovation, customers can seamlessly adjust their monthly payments through the Skyro app, whether to reduce financial strain because their priorities have changed or accelerate repayment because they suddenly have extra funds. 

“Flexi is more than just convenience — it’s financial flexibility that helps our customers save money, reduce stress, and live life on their terms. We aim to be a reliable partner in any situation and continue to develop solutions that simplify and enhance the lives of our customers. Their loan, their rules — that’s Flexi,” concluded Dmitriy Vavulidi.

Skyro swiftly enables flexible loan payments during Typhoon Kristine

 Leveraging on the latest technology to help customers affected by Typhoon Kristine, Skyro, one of the fastest growing financial technology companies in the country, has swiftly enabled the Skyro Flexi on its app, allowing all of its active borrowers across the country to adjust their monthly payment or due date to alleviate their financial burdens during this difficult time. 

Skyro's Flexi feature enables borrowers to lower their monthly 

payments or adjust their due dates right in the app.

“During extreme calamities, we want to help ensure the safety and well-being of our customers. When Typhoon Kristine made landfall, we immediately reached out to our customers, advising them that they can avail of our Flexi feature. We hope this support provided some relief, allowing them to prioritize their families’ safety during the storm,” said Skyro co-founder and co-CEO, Nasim Aliev. 

Skyro's Flexi feature, the first of its kind in the market, enables borrowers to lower their monthly payments or adjust their due dates right in the app, allowing them to allocate funds toward essential needs or rehabilitation efforts in the wake of the storm. Additionally, customers have the option to increase their monthly payments, reducing the number of remaining installments and saving on interest, making Flexi a truly dynamic and convenient tool for personal financial management.

Launched in the Philippines in August 2022, Skyro has quickly earned a reputation for its innovative digital financial services. It is now present in over 4,500 partner merchants stores nationwide with more than 270,000 active product loan customers. Skyro is committed to helping Filipinos achieve their dreams by offering flexible and accessible financial solutions.
