Home Credit Philippines (HCPH) is celebrating a major milestone of 12 million customers served as of 2026. At the heart of this success are stories like Jake Apayat’s—a 26-year-old from Bacolod who transformed a single smartphone purchase into a foundation for entrepreneurship.

Jake’s journey began at age 21 when he used Home Credit to finance an iPhone. By maintaining a disciplined payment record, he unlocked Cash Loan offers of up to ₱100,000, which he used to renovate his family home, invest in equipment for a joint business with his sister, and launch his own online buy-and-sell sideline. His story highlights how accessible financial solutions can bridge the gap between “working to survive” and “investing to grow.”
