Advance, the online demand salary platform now part of FinTech Ph


Advance, the country’s only online platform providing flexible credit on-demand, was officially launched recently.


Advance, an online platform providing credit on-demand – has been named as an official member of the FinTech Philippines Association.

Advance CEO and co-founder Jaime de los Angeles said Advance is a company that aims to help at least 8 out of 10 Filipino employees who live from paycheck to paycheck – with most of whom having without access to basic credit services and are unable to rely on their employers for financial assistance.

“Expenses often come at the most inopportune times or the so-called ‘petsa de peligro’. Advance is solving this problem by allowing employees to access their salaries on-demand, which is critical especially when faced with a sudden, unexpected need for cash,” said de los Angeles.


The Advance top executive also explained that the company is a flexible credit platform available round-the-clock, so individuals can have ready access to funds that’s essentially theirs.

“We know that life doesn’t conveniently revolve around payday, so we wanted to empower employees by giving them the ability to unlock their wages, anytime,” added de los Angeles.

Not everyone has the ability to take salary loan programs through banks, and even if they do, it wouldn’t be as fast as what Advance offers because of all the physical requirements and manual processes. Furthermore, approvals aren’t always guaranteed, plus loan amounts are usually much larger and for longer tenors.

“A bank typically won’t lend someone P2,000 to pay a utility bill. That’s where Advance comes in— to ensure employees never have to worry about how to cover their daily needs,” explained de los Angeles.

With all the frills in mind, Advance aims to provide workers with the ‘peace of mind’ that at any time, they’re can access their salary and get funds instantly sent to their bank account. But it’s really the flexibility of their product that makes them stand out among the rest of the lenders; specifically, they offer lines of credit that can be drawn from as needed instead of a fixed pre-approved amount. In addition, employees can request from P1,000 up to their max credit limit, as often as they need, until they fully utilize their line.




“Our model is very much in line with the sachet mentality of Filipinos, making our product really intuitive,” said de los Angeles.

However, de los Angeles cited that despite the ease of use, employers don’t need to worry about overexposure as the credit limits are a percentage of an employee’s salary.

“Interestingly, we’ve seen that combining flexibility with controlled limits actually helps promote responsible borrowing with our customers as they draw only what they need, versus having to accept a fixed amount that they’ve been approved for and be forced to draw it all in one shot – even if it means being over-leveraged. We really see ourselves as a financial bridge – providing financial assistance to employees while ensuring they still have enough to take home,” stated de los Angeles.

On the client front, Advance said they are working with employers by means of taking over the informal (and oftentimes very tedious) practice of lending to their employees.

“We’re proud to provide our service for free and at no liability to our partners, so they can utilize their cash flow for the operational needs of their business and focus on their core competencies. At the same time, they’re still able to provide financial assistance to their employees through us, in a way that’s fair, convenient and designed to really suit their needs,” said de los Angeles.

Another thing that has set Advance apart from other lenders is the 0 interest and the small processing fee which is added to the repayment amount. The launch welcomes Advance to the Fintech Philippines Association, making them one of the many tech firms participating in the FPh ecosystem, but one who is approaching financial inclusion and credit in a truly unique way.

“We are very proud to partner with a one-of-a-kind platform like Advance. I do believe that this is an opportunity for many employees to have more access to financial security than ever before.” FPh Executive Director Amor Maclang said.

The Fintech Philippines Association is the largest and most inclusive association in the Philippines that promotes digital entrepreneurship.

Beat the rainy days with these laundry hacks

The major household concern of any family during rainy season is that of drying wet clothes. 

The rainy season is a challenge for many moms especially when it comes to drying the laundry. Since drying clothes outdoors is out of the question, bringing them indoors after washing becomes commonplace.



But hanging freshly washed clothes indoors can leave them with a distinct and unpleasant odor. Moreover, wet clothes can cause a build-up of bacteria making them unsafe especially for infants.

That is why Beko Philippines, Europe’s leading brand of washers, shares some simple tips to keep your clothes clean, fresh-smelling and safe to wear.




Use Fabric Conditioner

Soak clothes in fabric conditioner during the rinse cycle. Fabric softeners not only leave clothes soft, but it also leaves them smelling fresh even if hung out to dry indoors preventing that all-too-familiar and unpleasant “kulob” odor. There are also fabric conditioners that have anti-microbial properties that leave clothes not only fragrant but bacteria-free.


Hang Clothes Properly

Where you hang them in the house also helps. Look for an area where there is good ventilation so the clothes get as much air as possible. Never hang them in cramped and enclosed spaces. Heavy pieces, such as jeans, towels, and carpets should be placed near the windows where air flows through. It is also worthwhile to ensure that the room where they hang in get good ventilation overall.

Give them a good wringing

Before you hang them, make sure that you’ve given them a thorough wringing. Clothes that are still quite wet not only dry longer, but they also smell bad even when already dry.


Choose the right dryers

Lastly, invest in the right dryer. Choose a dryer that can eliminate bacteria that cause can be harmful to your family. What’s more, they also maintain the fresh smell of the fabric conditioners you use, so your clothes smell fragrant.

Beko’s new 10kg. heat pump automatic dryer DH10444RX0 features the latest technological innovation to help you keep your clothes fresh and your family safe from harmful pathogens while saving on energy.

The DH10444RX0 has the AquaWave® technology that generates a wave-like motion using a set of paddles to increase drying performance as it moves garments around.

It also optimizes the drying cycle with an OptiSense® technology, a technological innovation that lets you choose between three smart sensors for drying clothes, with one sensor automatically stopping the machine when the right level of dryness has been achieved.



Beko’s DH10444RX0 keeps you clothes crease-free with its Auto Anti-Creasing feature that spins clothes gently with a gentle drum action.

Lastly, the DH10444RX0 comes with a Child Lock feature to prevent young ones from changing the settings on the dryer.

Beko Philippines advocates for healthy living through the technologies installed in their appliances. The company’s refrigerators, washers, and ovens come equipped with advanced features that are designed to not only improve efficiency but also, optimize time, cost, and energy so that people can prioritize their health and wellbeing.

It’s finally time to keep our floral outfits and swap them for comfy sweaters and waterproof jackets that will keep us safe during the eventual downpour. Students will now look towards their social media feeds for the slim chance that the local mayor has canceled classes, and employees may need to check the news channels for flooded streets that they might need to avoid during their morning commute.



Along with this new season comes with change of dishes to crave for, gone are the days of ice cream and cold desserts which are now replaced with savory soups and warm beverages catered to comfort you from the inside out.

"The world is better when we come together, through Chicken." - -- Max's Restaurant


Max’s Restaurant’s newest installment of its ‘Every Kind of Family’ campaign features ‘Rise Up’ takes an unexpected twist of celebrating Max’s 74 years anniversary. 



'Rise Up"

Can you imagine a world where the sun doesn’t shine? A life where we must aimlessly walk blind with nothing but darkness to guide us? 

This may sound like a dystopian, post-apocalyptic scenario, but in ‘Rise Up,’ Max’s Restaurant’s newest installment of its ‘Every Kind of Family’ campaign, it is a far lighter take; one on kindness, respect, collaboration, and working together for the good of everyone.

Max’s history of compelling storytelling was recently recognized by the prestigious Asia-Pacific Tambuli Awards as the Advertiser of the Year for coming up with ‘End Alienation,’ which highlights our intrinsic need to belong. This was then followed by ‘Resolutions,’ which proves it’s possible to unite and come together as a family despite our differences. 

Now, ‘Rise Up’ takes an unexpected twist of celebrating Max’s 74 years of proud existence – its Sarap-To-The-Bones® chicken and how it brings everyone from different walks of life together and foster life-long relationships.

“One of the things our fans have come to love about the brand is our out-of-this-world sense of humor and our belief in seeing the best in people,” shares Max’s Restaurant Chief Operating Officer Paolo Serrano. “With ‘Rise Up,’ we played to these strengths to give people a fresher take on Max’s Restaurant and our message.”

For Serrano, animation and quirky tone aside, ‘Rise Up’ gets to the heart of Max’s Restaurant as an institution; more than The House That Fried Chicken Built, it has also been a place where people of different ages, backgrounds, and beliefs have come together for over seven decades. 

“Max’s has always been a place where people come together for something greater and more meaningful than themselves,” notes Serrano. “Whether it’s celebrating a child’s first birthday, the start of a marriage, or a young adult getting their degree, Max’s has always been that place for people. We have always seen ourselves as part of the communities we are in. It’s also been a place where people passionate about good food, great service, and love of sustainable local cuisine have come together.”



“Having Max’s be a part of our fans’ lives has meant a lot to us, and as a gesture of appreciation, we’re now making it easier for everyone to come together at Max’s with our Rewards Card,”  adds Serrano,

With a minimum single-receipt food purchase of PHP1,000 which automatically entitles guests with one card, Every Kind of Family can have all the more memorable dining experiences Every Day to the Max.

This latest must-have allows cardholders an outright 10% discount starting at PHP500 to PHP10,000 food purchase. Even better, card owners can avail a free Max’s Best Plate anytime, seven days before or after their birthday. 

This special set is where all the best of Max’s come together, like Fried Chicken, Lumpiang Shanghai, Pancit Canton, Max’s Tofu or Chicken Skin, Sweet Kamote Fries, Rice, and a Caramel Bar.



Coming together doesn’t stop there because on July 31, starting 12PM, Max’s is also having another round of Chicken All-You-Can. Make sure to gather your friends, families, or even someone you just met and get your hands on unlimited Max’s Fried Chicken, Soup of the Day, Soft Drinks, and Rice for only PHP399.

Indeed, the world is better when we come together, especially if the heart of each get-together is at Max’s Restaurant, enjoying a plate of Sarap-To-The-Bones® Fried Chicken.
