To assist customers affected by Typhoon Carina (Gaemi), Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, is extending a payment grace period to borrowers.
Under this program, selected borrowers of Maya Easy Credit, Maya Personal Loan, and Maya Negosyo Loan will not be subjected to late payment fees for their outstanding credit until August 15, 2024.
The grace period applies to borrowers in good credit standing from the affected areas whose due dates fall between July 21, 2024, and August 5, 2024. Areas covered include the NCR, Rizal, Bulacan, Tarlac, Zambales, Pampanga, Cavite, Bataan, and Batangas.
“We understand the challenges faced by our customers in the aftermath of the calamity, and we want to stand by them during these difficult times,” said Shailesh Baidwan, Group President at Maya and Co-Founder of Maya Bank. “This grace period is our way of providing relief and support so they can focus on their recovery.”
Eligible customers will receive notifications via SMS and the Maya app. Starting August 16, 2024, the regular charging of fees will resume for all customers. For more information, users are encouraged to visit the Help Center on the Maya app.
