UnionDigital Bank (UD), the digital banking subsidiary of Union Bank of the Philippines; and JuanHand, the country’s leading pure fintech money lending app, are teaming up to rapidly expand access to credit for the Philippines’ underserved communities.
The alliance between these industry leaders will help creditworthy Filipinos gain immediate access to capital, especially for those with little to no credit history. By combining UD’s advanced digital banking infrastructure with WeFund’s fintech lending expertise, the partnership aims to pave the way for greater financial inclusion.
“At UD, our commitment to financial inclusion goes beyond just providing access, it’s about empowering Filipinos to improve their lives and realize their full potential. From the very beginning, we have focused on providing credit to those who once had limited access to financial options,” said Danilo “Bong” Mojica II, president and CEO of UD. “Today we are not pursuing this mission alone. With JuanHand as our partner, we are taking our efforts to the next level and working together to deliver reliable and inclusive financial solutions for all.”
WeFund Lending Corp., operator of JuanHand, has provided more than P40 billion in loans to more than 12 million registered users. Known for its fast loan approvals and minimum requirements, JuanHand emphasizes fair interest rates, professional customer service, and an easy-to-use interface, making it the preferred choice for technology-driven financial solutions.
“We are honored to be UD’s first fintech lending partner,” said Francisco “Coco” Mauricio, president and CEO of WeFund Lending Corp. “This partnership strengthens our ability to serve millions of underserved but creditworthy Filipinos. Access to credit is not just about loans, it is about promoting financial empowerment, which leads to overall prosperity. With the support of UnionDigital, we are making this vision a reality.”
Innovative financial technology has a positive impact for everyone, especially those who need it most. And together, UnionDigital Bank and WeFund are shaping a future where every Filipino has the opportunity to achieve stability and success.
