What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

In Cebu City, entrepreneurs are using GLoan Negosyo, a lending solution provided through GCash and Fuse Financing Inc., to finance their businesses. Three women entrepreneurs shared how this access to credit allows them to grow their businesses and support their families. For example, a nail salon owner transitioned from high-pressure informal lending to a system that allows her to restock supplies on her own terms.
