POSIBLE.NET “Empowering the Filipino MSMEs of Today”

"We have been hitting milestones since we started operating in 2016. And we are excited for what 2018 has to offer to our growing number of retailers, consumers and partners, and I believe that now is the perfect time to tell everyone about how we are empowering the Filipino MSMEs. The platforms we built over the years brought financial technology to many communities, but still, only the big businesses were able to realize the advantages. Our goal is to bring the innovations to the broader base of Filipinos, a type of inclusion wherein every Filipino enjoys the convenience and benefits of emerging technology. We are working to make the technology readily available to all barangays and community stores so that they would be able to do digital transactions and spur economic growth. Our objective is to penetrate more areas, especially those where banks and payment centers are minimal or nonexisten.” ~JG Puzon, President and CEO of POSIBLE.NET
