Zaimoo review
We are not recommending Zaimoo. Its homepage cannot keep its own numbers straight — ₱25,000 in the headline, ₱40,000 in the rate disclosure, ₱50,000 in a product tile, and a 14-day promotional loan against a minimum term it states as 61 days on the same page. The maximum rate it advertises, 365% a year, is roughly five times the nominal ceiling for the small short loans it promotes, and one tile claims a rate of 16.7% a day. It does name three of the credit institutions behind it, which is worth something; use those names and go direct.
Zaimoo is a marketplace, not a lender. You submit one application and it forwards your details to lenders it works with. It does not need a Certificate of Authority because it never lends — the licence that matters belongs to whichever lender you are matched with.
We have not finished the SEC lookup for this provider. Until we have, verify it yourself on the SEC lists before applying.
Densure LLC, registration 08217974, of Komitas Avenue, Yerevan, Armenia, per its own footer. No Philippine Certificate of Authority is published and none is required if it does not lend. Note a conflict worth knowing about: several third-party review sites describe Zaimoo as an SEC-registered direct lender with its own app, and at least one says it is not registered at all. The operator's own site says it does not lend, and that is what we have gone with. Still to check: the brand and the operator against the SEC advisories list, and which entity receives the application data.
Our assessment
Not recommended
Cost of credit: Its published pricing exceeds the ceiling the SEC applies to loans of this size and term. We do not publish an overall figure in this situation — a single number would invite comparison with providers that do not have this problem.

Who it suits
Hard to recommend to anyone as it currently stands. If you do use it, treat the three credit institutions it names as the useful part and check each against the SEC list yourself before you fill anything in.
Trade-offs
In its favour
- Says plainly that it does not lend and is an aggregator, which is the one thing most sites of this kind bury
- Names three of the credit institutions on the platform, and publishes a Certificate of Authority number for one of them
- Offers payout by bank card, e-wallet or cash rather than a single route
- Browser-based, so nothing asks for access to your contacts
Against it
- The page contradicts itself on the basics: ₱25,000 in the headline, up to ₱40,000 in the rate disclosure, a ₱50,000 product tile, and a 14-day promotional loan against a stated minimum term of 61 days
- The maximum rate it advertises is 365% a year, about 30% a month, against a ceiling of 6% nominal and 12% effective a month on the small short loans it promotes
- A product tile advertises "From 16,7% a day". If that is a typographical error it has been left on the homepage; if it is not, it is far outside anything lawful
- Two testimonials appear with no name or date, and one of them describes receiving ₱30,000 at 0% from a site that states on the same page that it does not lend money
- One of the three named platform lenders is JEFF ESTONIA OÜ, an Estonian company, with no Philippine authority shown for it
- The operator is an Armenian company with no Philippine entity, so there is no local addressee for a complaint
- Third-party review sites describe Zaimoo as a direct lender with an app, which its own site contradicts. Be careful what you install under this name
Before you apply
- Ask for the total cost in pesos, not the daily rate. Then put it through the loan calculator to see the effective rate and whether it sits inside the ceiling.
- Check the operator name on the SEC lists — the brand on the app is often not the licensed company.
- Find out which lender you have been matched with before you accept, and check that one too.
- If an app asks for your contacts or photos, that is the setup for the debt-shaming this market has a history of. Refuse it.
We earn a commission when you apply through some of the links on this page, and that can affect the order providers appear in. It does not affect whether we tell you a provider is a broker rather than a lender, or that we could not verify its registration.
Borrow only what you can repay. Compare the effective interest rate, including fees, rather than the advertised daily or monthly rate — they are not the same number. Missing payments adds penalties and is reported to the credit bureau. If a lender or collector threatens you or contacts the people in your phone, that is prohibited, and you can report it to the SEC.

What we still have to check on this provider (6)
- Check the SEC advisories list for the Zaimoo brand and for Densure LLC
- Match the two Philippine registrations published on the page against the SEC list: Certificate of Authority 1254, and registration CS201726430 with Certificate of Authority 1181
- Establish on what basis an Estonian company is listed as a lender on the platform, and whether it is authorised to lend in the Philippines
- Ask Zaimoo to reconcile the ₱25,000, ₱40,000 and ₱50,000 figures and the "From 16,7% a day" tile, and record the reply
- Establish whether the app marketed under this name by third-party sites is connected to this operator at all
- Read the privacy policy and record who the application data is passed to and whether it leaves the Philippines
