Lendr, developed by Voyager Innovations\u2019 financial technology arm FINTQ, allows prospective borrowers to search for the loan, file their applications and submit requirements online or via mobile phones, eliminating the need to go to a physical bank branch or to fill out long and complicated application forms.<\/p>\n

\u201cLendr has been making inroads as the leading digital lending platform in the country today, and this accolade from The Asian Banker further illustrates how it has become a pervasive and useful platform for financial inclusion,\u201d said Lito Villanueva, managing director at FINTQ. \u201cWith the right mix of a digitally-enabled platform, a set of partners that is willing to take the risk in digital, and a sustainable business model that has proven to be a win-win for all, we have created a breakthrough solution that benefits everyone with Lendr.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is the second time that The Asian Banker recognized Voyager for its role in developing digital innovations, with Voyager president and CEO Orlando B. Vea receiving the Asian Banker Innovation Leadership Achievement Award for the Philippines early this year.<\/p>\n

Lendr was recognized for promoting financial inclusion among Filipinos nationwide, including those in far-flung provinces out of reach by the traditional banking system. At the same time, it helps enable banks and other financial institutions by providing a common platform where they can engage with new markets via digital and mobile technology.<\/p>\n

The Asian Banker awarded Lendr for exhibiting \u201ca sustainable business performance in 2016,\u201d since it has so far helped disbursed more than P24 billion in loans to users in 100% of Philippine provinces, 91% of cities, and 26% of municipalities nationwide.<\/p>\n

It is the first non-bank product to receive such a distinction from the institution.<\/p>\n

To date, Lendr has partnered with more than 50 bank and non-bank institutions in various stages of onboarding, offering loan products such as personal loan, salary loan, OFW loan, car loan, housing loan, trucks & equipment loan, motorcycle loan, DepEd loan, and farmer\/fisher loan, among many others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
