Lista financial management app turns 3, establishes 'The Credit Club' with CIC, CIBI and financial content creators

Financial Management App Lista marks its 3rd year in the Philippines by establishing 'The Credit Club' to aid financial literacy for the masses.

Lista app is now available at the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store

Download your Credit Score via the Lista App

Lista continues its commitment to empowering Filipinos with the tools and knowledge needed to take control of their financial futures. With over 3 million downloads to date, Lista has become the go-to financial management app for Filipinos because of its simplicity and accessibility.

The app currently features financial management monitoring and transaction tracking for savings, budgeting, documentation, income and expenses. It also allows users to 'Utang' where one user can be the lender while the other is the borrower.

The app is available in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. It is free to download and it requires a strict signup procedure. Once logged in, users are given access to search and download their credit score from the Credit Information Corporation (CIC), Credit Information Bureau, Inc. (CIBI) and TransUnion Philippines. There are corresponding fees for the download of your Credit Score report. The reports are updated monthly.

A recent Q1 2024 study by TransUnion highlights that younger people are becoming aware of the significance of credit among younger Filipinos. 98 percent of Gen Z respondents view access to credit and lending products as essential to reaching their financial goals. As such, Gen Zs highly engage with their credit health and frequently monitor their status to secure the best credit opportunities. Lista says that this underscores the growing need for education regarding credit scores.

Lista's solution is the Credit Club initiative, which aims to bridge the gap by equipping younger Filipinos with the knowledge and tools to master credit management.

More than an exclusive group, it is (apparently) a movement where younger Filipinos are invited to join the conversation about responsible financial management. 

“Understanding one’s credit score is essential for financial empowerment, yet it remains one of the most overlooked aspects of financial literacy,” said Khriz Lim, Co-Founder and COO of Lista.  “As we celebrate our 3rd anniversary, we’re launching The Credit Club to bring together a community of ambassadors who will help spread the message of responsible credit management. By empowering these individuals, we aim to bridge the knowledge gap and inspire their peers to view credit not just as a number, but as a vital tool for achieving financial freedom and long-term success.”

The Credit Club consists of representatives from the CIC, CIBI, TransUnion and Financial Thought leaders and Influencers. To join in the conversation, Lista encourages you to download their app.
