Our verdict
Crezu suits adults in the Philippines who want a small personal loan funded fast, and it charges 0 PHP - no service fee. The catch is the shape of the loan: a term of 3 to 4 means the representative example repays far more than was borrowed, so budget for the interest before you apply.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Nothing is added at the point of application, because the origination fee is 0 PHP - no service fee and the deal turns entirely on interest.
- Speed runs through the whole application, with Decision in 2 min, money in 15 min covering the decision and the payout together.
- The amount runs PHP 500 to PHP 25,000, which suits a single repair rather than a large project, and home improvement is a listed use.
- The rate band sits alongside Cashspace, whose PHP 12 to PHP 36 matches Crezu's 12% to 36%, so the choice between them comes down to term rather than price.
Cons
- The term is the main cost driver, since 3 to 4 is far shorter than the site median term of 36 and interest lands on very few payments.
- The credit check is hard (hard), so the file is searched in full, while soft pre-checks account for only 20.1% of lenders listed here.
- Support runs on email only, which makes a problem with a payout something to set out in writing.
- Brokers account for 17.4% of personal loans on the site and Crezu is broker, so the rate you are offered is set by the lender that funds you.
Who it suits
- Adults in the Philippines with a valid ID card, a phone number and a bank account who need a small sum for a home improvement.
- People who want no arrangement charge and can clear the whole balance inside 3 to 4.
- Borrowers with other balances to tidy, since debt consolidation sits under personal and debt consolidation.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone wanting to spread a balance over a longer term: Sofkredit's rate band of 10.74% to 18.06% suits repayments that run well past 3 to 4.
- Borrowers who need a far larger sum: Creduma ES starts at from €12,000, a different scale from PHP 500 to PHP 25,000.
Application and funding speed
Crezu moves quickly at both ends. The stated timing is Decision in 2 min, money in 15 min, so a decision and a payout sit inside the same working period rather than a week apart. The size of the loan is PHP 500 to PHP 25,000, which is sized for a specific bill or repair rather than a major project, and the term is 3 to 4, so a balance is cleared in a matter of weeks. Amount, speed and term all point the same way. This suits a shortfall you can cover from the next payday, not a cost you intend to carry for longer. If the need is bigger or lasts longer than that, the shape of the loan works against you.
Deposit protection
Crezu is a broker, broker, and that changes what you are contracting with. An application is matched to a lender who then funds the loan, so the agreement, the rate and the repayment terms come from that partner rather than from the brand you applied through. Nothing is held on your behalf while you decide, so there is no balance with Crezu to protect, because borrowing is not the same as saving. The representative example is the only worked picture of the commitment on offer: a personal loan where the total repaid runs well beyond the amount advanced. If you want a scheme standing behind money you hold, that is a different product from this one.
Rates and costs
The headline rate is quoted as 12% to 36%, a wide band, so the upper end is the realistic figure for a thin or repeat file. Set against that, the origination charge is 0 PHP - no service fee, so no sum is added for setting the loan up. Interest still decides the outcome. The representative example on the brand is a personal loan where the total repaid is well above the sum advanced, which follows directly from a term of only a few weeks. Treat that example as the shape of a typical loan here rather than an odd case. The cost is not the fee. It is the interest charged over a very short period, and the representative example is where you see it most clearly.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Crezu loan cost in fees?+
There is no arrangement charge to add to the interest: the origination fee is 0 PHP - no service fee. What you pay beyond that is interest on the amount advanced, and the headline rate is quoted as 12% to 36%. Because the term is 3 to 4, that interest is spread over very few payments, so the total repaid runs well above the sum you borrowed.
How quickly does the money arrive?+
The stated timing is Decision in 2 min, money in 15 min, and same day funding is listed among the features. The decision and the payout are therefore handled close together rather than a week apart, which suits a bill that has already landed. The catch is what follows, because the term is 3 to 4 and the repayments are compressed.
How much can I borrow, and for how long?+
Loan amounts run PHP 500 to PHP 25,000 and the term is 3 to 4. The median amount across personal loans on the site is €559 and the median term is 36, so this reads as a small and quick loan rather than a long arrangement.
What credit check does Crezu run?+
The check is hard, hard, so the file is searched in full and a decline is recorded. Soft pre-checks cover 20.1% of the lenders listed, and the median retail loss percentage across them is 70.15%, which is why a full file tends to be looked at.
Who is the other side of the agreement?+
Crezu works as a broker, broker, so an application is passed to a lender that funds the loan and sets the final terms. The company behind the application is Fininity OÜ (Fininity Ltd), company no. 14523902, based in Estonia. Because the partner lender decides the rate you are offered, it is worth establishing who that lender is before you accept.
What can I use the money for?+
Crezu covers personal loans and debt consolidation under personal and debt consolidation, and home improvement is a listed use. Of the two, consolidation is the more useful here, because a term of 3 to 4 suits folding several small balances into a single payment rather than restructuring what you owe over years.
Who is eligible to apply?+
Applicants need to be adults resident in the Philippines with a valid ID card, a phone number and a bank account. The credit check is hard, hard, so a clean file counts for more than it would with a lender that pre-checks first, and amounts start at PHP 500 to PHP 25,000.
How do I get help after applying?+
Support runs on email only, so a question about a decision, a payout or a repayment has to be written out. That is worth weighing if timing matters, because the stated payout is Decision in 2 min, money in 15 min and a slow answer costs more here than a slow reply would elsewhere.
