When can I start activating PayHinga?
Hi there, luv! You can only activate one month of PayHinga once you've made 3 consecutive monthly installments on-time.
But remember, if you're late for a payment, you'll have to start over again. No worries, though! As soon as you pay on time, you can start using PayHinga once more.
Just a heads up, you can only activate PayHinga BEFORE your due date.
To see if you're eligible to activate PayHinga, check the PayHinga card in your loan dashboard. Hope this helps! XOXO
(PayHinga for Exclusive Loan Offer) Are there differences between the PayHinga fee that I paid in my Credit Builder or Shop Installment Loan, and the PayHinga fee in my Reloan or Flex Up Loan?
Hi there, luv! If you opt into PayHinga when you accept our Reloan and Flex Up offer, you'll pay the same PayHinga fee of 9.11% of your monthly loan installment.
This fee must be paid, whether or not you activate PayHinga, for the duration of your loan. XOXO
(PayHinga for Exclusive Loan Offer) How does Payhinga work for my Reloan or Flex Up Loan?
PayHinga is a value-added service that allows you to push your payment schedule back for as long as one month! Not only that, but it also comes with Credit Life Insurance provided by Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc.
If you’ve activated PayHinga for our Tonik Credit Builder and/or Shop Installment Loan, it’s similar to that!
Rest assured that when you're going through tough times, PayHinga's got you covered. XOXO
What is PayHinga?

My loan offer comes with PayHinga. How many payment holidays can I use with this loan offer?

Can I cancel my insurance?
Hi there, luv! As much as we want you to enjoy the benefits of your plan, you may still cancel your plan provided that there are no claims made on your account within the policy period.
You may request for cancellation with the Tonik Bank Customer Service at customercare@tonikbank.com or by telephone at +63 2 5322 2645.
But please note that since your insurance coverage is part of the PayHinga package, you’ll still be charged the entire PayHinga fee even if you’ve cancelled your insurance plan. XOXO

When will I be covered by insurance?
Hi there, luv! If you opt into PayHinga, you'll be covered from the moment your loan is disbursed until you fully pay it off. You'll receive an SMS notification from Tonik confirming your coverage.
To make sure you're covered by the insurance, it's essential to keep up with your loan payments. If you fall behind on your loan, you might not be covered by Sun Life.
Your insurance will automatically end on the earliest of these dates:
• The date specified in the Termination of Debtor's Insurance section of the Policy;
• the end of the grace period for which premium remains unpaid to SLGFI for this benefit; or
• the day you turn 59 years old.
