Skyro, an SEC-registered fintech company, has earned another major industry recognition after winning the Philippines Consumer Service Innovation of the Year – Financial Technology award at the Asian Innovation Excellence Awards 2026.

Held on October 20 in Singapore, the awards recognized organizations across Asia for innovations that deliver measurable results, address critical challenges, and drive meaningful progress across industries.

Skyro received the distinction for Flexi, an add-on service that gives Filipino customers greater flexibility and control over their loan repayments as their financial circumstances change. Available directly through the Skyro app, Flexi allows users to adjust their monthly payment amount or due date in just a few taps.

Making Loan Repayments More Flexible

Unlike traditional lending services that require customers to contact support teams or submit requests to modify repayment terms, Skyro Flexi provides a convenient self-service alternative. Its automated system eliminates paperwork, manual verification, and the need for customers to explain their circumstances.

The service has helped customers navigate unexpected financial challenges, including delayed salaries, reduced income, and family emergencies. In one instance, a customer used Flexi to extend his payment period after his wife gave birth prematurely, allowing him to prioritize their child’s medical needs without taking out another loan.

Around 40% of Skyro’s customer base has activated Flexi, with 60% of those users making repayment adjustments. Customer feedback has also been encouraging, with 87% of customer satisfaction surveys and app reviews mentioning Flexi expressing positive sentiment.

For Dmitriy Vavulidi, Skyro Head of Product, the recognition underscores the importance of rethinking conventional lending practices.

“When we developed Skyro Flexi, we wanted to challenge the idea that customers should always have to follow a fixed repayment schedule, even when their circumstances change,” said Dmitriy. “Behind these features is a lot of product and technology work. But for us, the real innovation is making that flexibility simple, accessible, and useful for customers.”

Skyro COO Ira Franco also emphasized the company’s customer-centered approach.

“At Skyro, we’ve always believed that financial services should adapt to people’s lives, not the other way around,” Franco said. “It’s not just about introducing new technology or features. It’s about understanding what our customers need and finding practical ways to make their financial experiences better.”

Expanding Financial Access in the Philippines

The award comes as Skyro continues to grow its presence among Filipino consumers. To date, the company has released more than 3 million loans and recorded over 7 million registered mobile app users.

Through Flexi, Skyro demonstrates how lending innovation can go beyond expanding access to credit. By making repayment schedules more adaptable, the service gives customers greater control over their financial commitments while supporting stronger portfolio performance and sustainable business growth.
