Online lending apps have become a popular part of the financial ecosystem. These service platforms have given Filipinos quick access to cash loans without the hassles of regular loan applications. However, many borrowers have become victims of excessive charges, repayment scams and harassment perpetrated by fly by night lending platforms.  CLAP aims to protect borrowers against these issues by increasing awareness on how to differentiate between the legitimate and predatory online lending platforms.  CLAP will also launch Financial Literacy programs to help the public gain insights that lead to Financial Empowerment.     

By continuing to work closely with the government and other stakeholders, CLAP can massively extend financial assistance to the underserved in a professional and pleasant manner thus further improving the positive reputation of the Fintech industry in the country.
