I encountered an error that says, "Same face, different number?" What does it mean?
Hey luv, we're sorry to hear you're getting an error. No worries, that means you already have an existing account with us. Just click "Login my account" to continue.

How do I reactivate my dormant Tonik account?
Got email and SMS notifications that your account is dormant? Just log in the app and reactivate your account in a few easy steps:
- Click the banner "Dormant tonik account. Tap to reactivate."
- Scan your lovely face for verification.
- Top up at least PHP 1.00 to fully reactivate.
Welcome back, luv!
I completed my Tonik face scan (selfie), but I didn't top-up yet. Is my account already active?
Not yet, luv! You still need to top-up within 30 days after you scan your lovely face (re-KYC verification) to fully reactivate your account.
Don't wait till the last minute! Top-up ASAP or you'll have to re-verify your account again.
Why do I only see the 5% interest credited to my Tonik Savings Account?
Hey, luv! This is for customers who opened 6-month Time Deposits before February 14, 2026 and enabled rollover prior to maturity.
The 5% base interest + 1% bonus interest are the previous rates for 6-month Time Deposits before February 14, 2026. Customers needed to have at least Php 10,000 ADB (Average Daily Balance) for 6 months to qualify for the additional 1%, which will only be credited upon payout (or when the customer disabled rollover and allowed the Time Deposit to mature on its new maturity date).
Hope that clarifies! XOXO
How can I earn the full 6% interest rate for my newly-created 6-month Time Deposit?
Heads up, luv! Starting February 14, 2026, you won’t need an Average Daily Balance (ADB) to earn the full 6% p.a. on your 6-month Time Deposit.
Loving reminder that when you rollover your deposit, it will also have a new maturity date. You can expect it to be credited to your Tonik Savings Account upon payout.
If you’ve got an active 6-month Time Deposit that you opened before February 14, 2026, make sure to enable rollover (meaning you'll keep your money in the Time Deposit for another 6 months) so you can enjoy that new 6% p.a. rate! Don't forget to read the Terms & Conditions to learn more and avoid early withdrawal fees. XOXO
What will happen to my interest when I rollover a Time Deposit?
When you put your money in a Time Deposit (TD), it grows by earning interest. If you choose to enable the "rollover" for your Time Deposit, it means your money is kept for a longer time. If say you set it for 6 months, and then let it rollover for another 6 months, your money will mature after 12 months. You'll only see both the extra money (interest) and the total amount (your original money) in your TSA account at the end of the whole 12 months.
Starting May 1, 2026, Time Deposits with amounts greater than PHP100,000 will no longer be eligible for rollover. If rollover was previously turned on for these deposits, the system will automatically disable it. This change is due to an update to our maximum rollover limit, which has been adjusted from PHP250,000 to PHP100,000.
Thanks so much for your understanding! XOXO
How much interest can I earn if I open a P250,000.00 Time Deposit?

18 months | 6% | PHP 22,438.36 |

What is Friends with Benefits (FwB)?
Hey, luv! Friends with Benefits is Tonik’s referral program. Invite your friends to join Tonik and have them provide your referral code when they register. When they get a Credit Builder loan approved and disbursed, you both earn cash. Win-win. 💜
How much do I earn per successful referral?
Here’s the sweet deal, hun:
You earn PHP 500 for every Friend you refer who is new to Tonik to sign up and successfully avail of a Credit Builder Loan.
Your Friend also earns PHP 50.00. 💜
Is the Friends with Benefits program available forever?
Hello luv, the FwB program is running for a limited time only.
We’re keeping the exact end date flexible so we can tweak the program whenever needed.
If we ever decide to change anything, end it, or take a quick beauty nap break from it, Tonik may do so anytime — with or without prior notice.
So, go ahead and refer your friends while the rewards are hot!
Am I qualified to join the FWB program?
To join the FwB crew, make sure you tick these boxes, luv:
- You have an active or previous Tonik loan.
- If you have an active loan, it should not be past due – no late payments please.
- If you have a previous loan, it should have:
- No past due records exceeding 30 days
- Been paid in full, with at least 3 monthly payments made (or early full repayment, that’s okay too!)
Meet all these? Congrats, you’re officially FwB‑ready. ✨
Who can I invite or refer under FwB?
Anyone who’s not yet part of the Tonik fam and will apply for a Credit Builder Loan.
Bring all your future-Tonik-friends into the circle, luv!
Can I get suspended from the program?
Yes, luv — you can be suspended or removed from FwB if Tonik identifies activity that looks like abuse, misuse, or any attempt to “game” the system.
This includes things like:
- suspicious referrals
- unusual activity patterns
- attempts to trick eligibility rules
- or anything that violates Tonik’s terms
If this happens, Tonik may disable your referral code, pause your ability to earn, or remove you from the program entirely.
Stay on the bright side, luv — play fair and earn fair! ✨
Where do I see the FwB option and my referral code?
You’ll get an inbox message once you’re eligible.
After that, just open your Profile and you’ll spot the Friends with Benefits tab — your special corner where your referral code proudly lives, ready to be shared with your Friends.
Can my referral code change?
Your code is forever. So no worries, hun – feel free to share it endlessly with all your friends.
How do I refer a Friend?
Open your Profile, tap Friends with Benefits, grab that referral code, and send it to your friends however you like.
Just remind them to enter it during sign-up — teamwork makes the reward work!
When or where should my referred Friends enter the referral code?
Right at the final step of sign-up.
Tell your friend to type it in before they finish registration, so you both get reward-ready.
