Why was I not approved?

We’re sorry you weren’t approved. Here is a list of the most common reasons why we couldn’t approve you for a loan.

  1. Incorrect data Such as wrong email address or false information about your income, past loans, etc.
  2. Poor credit history There are either too many loans in your credit history or none. Past overdue loans may be the reason for the refusal of a Skyro loan, too.
  3. High debt burden We have to carefully check if the loan can create unbearable obligations for the customers. If that’s the case, we can’t risk issuing a loan to you.
  4. Inactive phone number We can’t approve a cash loan if we can’t get in touch with you or your references to check the information.

We can’t disclose the exact reasons why a particular customer wasn’t approved for a loan — it’s simply not safe for us.

What can I do to be approved next time?
  1. Only share truthful information When applying for a loan, answer the questions as honestly as possible. All applications are carefully reviewed by our Risk Management team. If we see that you gave us false information, that will reduce your chances of getting a loan down to zero.
  2. The more details, the better Provide maximum details, it’s highly important to give as much information as possible. No personal detail is too small to mention. See №1: if you withhold any information, this may be considered a fraud by our security services.
  3. Enter only the mobile number that you’re ready to pick up Give us the mobile number that is actually in use. That stands for both your number and your references. It’s essential for us to be able to contact you in time to clarify information. If we cannot contact you or your references, we have no choice but to reject your application.
  4. And actually be ready to pick up After submitting the form, make sure that we can reach you by the mobile number you indicated. We’ll get in touch with you shortly.
  5. Get your credit history in order This might be the biggest issue. If you already have a lot of loans, this may negatively affect your eligibility for a new loan. We strongly recommend dealing with current loans first before applying for new ones.
Can I apply for a repeated loan?

You can always apply for your next product loan. However, to secure an increased limit and a lower down payment, you’ll need to wait for a special offer banner to appear in your Skyro app.

Note that the option to apply for a cash loan repeatedly is currently unavailable.

Is there a fee I have to pay?

Note that currently there is no transaction fee charged when paying via BDO or UnionBank, only an extra fee.

How quickly will I see that my payment was posted?

It depends on the payment partner. It can be instant or as long as 3 days.

When is the due date for my payments?

The due date is usually the same date when your loan was first disbursed. For example, if you received the loan on June 20, your first due date will be July 20, etc.

There are few exceptions:

  • If you receive the loan on 30th or 31st, your next due dates are the 1st.
  • If you receive the loan on 29th, your due date in February is 28th.

Note that you can always see your due date in the app. When your due date is near, we’ll notify you via SMS.

We also recommend you to pay 3 to 5 days earlier from your due date to avoid unexpected delays from the payment channel you’ve selected.

What will happen if I miss the due date?

If you missed a due date, the late fee of ₱500 (or 5% of the disbursement amount, whatever is lower) applies the next day after your due date. The late fees apply every month that you’re overdue.

There is no grace period.

Can I make an early payment?

Yes, you can make a full or partial payment for your loan in advance. To do this, just contact us in the in-app chat to know the exact amount for the early payment.
