     Have you heard the word FinTech? This is new to me and for those who have not heard it it's short for Financial Technology. This is an extremely hot industry sector in business today. Talk to any tech investor or Venture Capitalist out there and they will tell you how investment into Fintech companies and start-ups has soared in the past 2 years. 

     FinTech is especially attractive in emerging markets like the Philippines because of the massive opportunity to serve those without access to efficient payments and banking services today. However, skim through these FinTech companies and you’ll find that most, if not all, existing FinTech players have a skew towards an app-based service or digital-first business model. Sharing today the latest player in this field- TrueMoney! Know more information after the jump.

Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!

Saturday, February 06, 2016

     Filipinos now enjoy online shopping. This kind of buying online is already a part of Filipino culture. I'm one of those Filipinos who find online shopping the easiest way to buy things that I need and want because it's hassle-free. All I have to do is go online, browse my favorite online shops, select the things that I want, pay thru my preferred payment method, and voila- wait for my package to arrive.

     It's so convenient to shop online BUT not all the time because there are things that I also need to consider like the selections of products and items available, the payment method, and shipping. I know some individuals veer away from online shopping because they don't have a credit card and they worry about the shipping rates. Another problem that I myself encountered while shopping online last year was the availability of items, as most of the items I want are available overseas like in the US and only thru Amazon. Well, looks like my dilemma of shopping US products online will be a breeze with the launch of HalpU! I'm sure you are very excited to know more of HalpU, scroll down below to see what's in store for you with HalpU!
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
     So what is HalpU? HalpU is an ordering tool for items available on Amazon.com. Basically you will shop US products online, send thru balikbayan box, kahit walang credit card!

     YES!!! Those are the three things that you will like about HalpU. To show you more what HalpU has to offer especially to those who are a frequent shoppers of US products online, read more below :)

1. HalpU provides an easier way for Filipinos to shop online, even without a credit card. Pinoys can now shop US products online, kahit walang credit card. (HalpU was created with OFWs in mind, but later on they realized that HalpU will also be good for the Filipino market in the Philippines who wants to shop US products.)

2. Your OFW relatives can shop for you and your loved ones on the HalpU website. HalpU will consolidate all orders, put it in a balikbayan box, and ship to their families in the Philippines. HalpU box content, as long as they contain personal effects, don't get taxed when it lands in the Philippines. Can I hear a resounding YES for this?!? We always worry about the taxes that we will pay once we receive products from our relatives abroad, now HalpU will make it easier for you if your products are personal effects, guaranteed no taxes, baby!

5. HalpU will have its official launch for the OFW market during the PayRemit Pinoy Caravan in Dubai this March.

     I'm sure you're all wondering about the rates of Halpu balikbayan boxes. Cost/Rates for the standard balikbayan boxes are as follows:

RED- $55
BLUE- $65
GREEN- $75

     Because my balikbayan box is still in transit, I will share the photo of my RED balikbayan box once it arrives on my doorsteps. I'm so excited to share with you my haul! Anyhoo, shopping online with halpu.com is fun and easy. I made an account at HalpU's website and I was tasked to start filling my box. That signals to start shopping online! It's still on beta version so I was very luck to have the first dibs on their website.

     HalpU is an ordering tool for items available on Amazon.com. The site is directly connected to Amazon and displays search results real time. You can find everything on Amazon in HalpU However, since there are limitations to the interface Amazon provides, they cannot (and do not intend to) replicate the Amazon shopping experience.

     And because shopping online with US products in HalpU is like a walk in the park, I've ordered the products that are not available in local online shops. These products are my lemmings and on my son's wish list last Christmas that I was not able to buy because I don't have a credit card and I worry about the shipping fees as the products I ordered came from different seller. So with HalpU, my orders will be consolidated in one box. No need to pay for separate shipping fees and all I have to do is fill my box with goodies that I want! Sharing with you what I ordered for my son below :)

     Yay! I'm really excited to share with you what's inside my HalpU box. I'll update you more on my Instagram account so stay tuned. I'm very satisfied with my shopping experience at halpu.com! Now I can truly say that we can “Shop US products online. Send thru balikbayan box. Kahit walang credit card” with the help of HalpU!
