Home Credit gears to become the ‘lifestyle partner’ of Filipinos, expands services to different sectors

To bring Filipinos closer to the life they want, the country’s leading consumer finance company Home Credit Philippines (HCPH), continues to expand its offerings by innovating its products and partnering with more brands and retailers across key categories, such as healthcare, fashion, beauty, and fitness.
The brand deepens its commitment to Filipinos and presents itself as their trusted ally “Para sa Life”

As the lifestyle partner of Filipinos, Home Credit has served almost 9 million Filipinos nationwide -- serving as an ally of Filipino consumers -- from achieving every little item in their life’s checklist to the more important investments for their desired future.

 

Home Credit has been pioneering financial inclusion in the Philippines since 2013. It further strengthens this cause by being at the forefront of advocating financial literacy and practicing responsible lending in the country.

 

Expanding its services to suit every Filipinos’ lifestyle

Being a partner requires flexibility and reliability. As such, Home Credit ensures that its financial services and solutions are available and accessible whenever and wherever Filipinos need them the most.

 

To further cement its commitment to its Filipino consumers, Home Credit continues to expand across key categories, being present in more than 10,000 point-of-sales (POS) partners where customers can avail of installment plans and get the items immediately without hassle.

 

 

Beyond offering easy installments, Home Credit also offers easy payments to its customers. With Home Credit’s digital payment option Qwarta, customers will be given as much as Php 10,000 additional spending limit within the Home Credit app to increase their purchasing power. Qwarta can be used to pay bills without additional cost, shop or buy loads with discounts, or purchase via QR Code.

 

Aside from that, Home Credit also offers customers an option to insure the devices they purchase and even protect their family against Covid-19 and vaccine side effects through HCProtect.

 

Empowering Filipinos to live the lives they want and deserve

Apart from providing access to easy credit, Home Credit aims to empower Filipinos to claim what they deserve through various needs-apt financial products and services. Along its expanded services are its financial literacy programs that aim to let Filipinos know that a financially stable future is achievable.

 

Its recent Para sa Life campaign is one testament to the company’s deepened commitment to Filipino consumers. It has been a breakthrough for Home Credit in giving the brand a face and a feeling while engaging in transformative communications and utilizing traditional and digital channels. The campaign also debuted a music video that positioned Home Credit as a reliable financial partner that assists Filipinos as they begin a new chapter in life.

 

“At Home Credit Philippines, we see transformative communications as a way to effectively tell our story — the story of empowered Filipinos. The Para sa Life campaign did exactly just that as it encapsulated our promise of companionship in our customers’ life journey,” shares HCPH’s Chief Marketing Officer, Sheila Paul. “Being able to present our services and solutions in ways that closely speak to our consumers helps us continue championing a financially empowered and inclusive Philippines,” she added.

 

Under the same campaign, Home Credit has also launched its flagship financial literacy radio block time segment in partnership with PraXis and the Manila Broadcasting Company in June which airs 2-minute financial tips across all DZRH stations nationwide. It’s set to launch its Wais sa Home financial literacy microsite featuring financial literacy quizzes and other resources and its Wais sa Home national roadshow aimed at expanding its financial literacy programs for youth across the country.

Today' Classics: UNIQLO 2022 Fall/Winter LifeWear Collection

Japanese global apparel retailer UNIQLO redefines what classics are with the launch of its Fall/Winter 2022 collection. Dubbed Today’s Classics, the new collection of LifeWear is filled with wardrobe staples that have been reinvented to adapt to the needs of today’s lifestyle.


Fall/Winter 2022 LifeWear
Today’s Classics

When you hear "classics," what comes to mind?
Maybe a tweed jacket, trench coat, or cashmere sweater,
beloved items that have stood the test of time.

But even these longstanding classics can evolve over the years.
Warmer and lighter jackets, water-repellent coats,
and knitwear made using WHOLEGARMENT® technology.
These updates maintain an authentic look
while adapting to the needs of today's lifestyle.

The lineup also features denim that requires much less water*,
jackets made using recycled down,
and fleeces spun from plastic bottles,
items that will guide us toward a sustainable future.

We've taken a balanced and holistic approach,
creating essentials that are made for all.
By designing classics for today that will last into the future,
UNIQLO makes LifeWear for today and for tomorrow.

“There is a reason why our LifeWear pieces such as the tweed jacket, trench coat, or cashmere sweater are loved through the years. They are designed well and effectively serve their purpose. UNIQLO, however, believes that even these classics can evolve with the times. That’s the inspiration behind this season’s collection,” says Geraldine Sia, UNIQLO Philippines’ COO.

For Fall/Winter 2022, UNIQLO has designed warmer and lighter jackets, water-repellent coats, and knitwear made using *WHOLEGARMENT® technology. Emphasizing sustainability, this new collection features denims that require much less water during production, and jackets and fleeces made from recycled plastic bottles.

OUTERWEAR

UNIQLO has expanded its collection of outerwear to suit a wide range of lifestyles and settings, from shirt jackets to chic wool coats.

The Ultra Light Down Jacket has been redesigned to make it more fashionable. Now lighter and softer but still durable, the water-repellent coating protects the wearer from rainy days, while the pocketable feature allows it to be stored when not in use.

Women’s Corduroy Cropped Jacket

The cropped length in a boxy fit gives this jacket a sleek look, but the relaxed fit and dropped shoulders make it cozy to wear. Its classic corduroy fabric is washed for a softer look.


Women’s Fluffy Yarn Fleece

This is the ultimate in coziness: the fuzzy fleece is made with long-pile yarn for a warm, light, and soft feel with a natural stretch. The length extends to the hips for added warmth and coverage.


Men’s MA-1 Blouson

This wardrobe essential comes in a modern silhouette with classic details. Its voluminous and relaxed fit is complemented by its lightweight yet durable nylon twill outer layer. The water-repellent coating protects the wearer from the rain.
Men’s Over Shirt Jacket (Jersey)

Men’s Middle Gauge Knitted Crew Neck Vest

The vest features a thick yarn that produces a light and comfortable feel. This garment changes its style depending on the size. Wear the usual size for a neat look, or go for a bigger version for a casual style

Men’s Extra Fine Merino Crew Neck Long Sleeve Sweater

This classic item uses extra fine Merino wool for a premium and smooth touch. The knit has been updated to make the sweater look more beautiful.

BOTTOMS
