KodeGo seals study now, pay later partnership with BillEase

KodeGo, a Filipino study-now-pay-later edtech company, has partnered with consumer finance app BillEase to provide local learners with easier access to IT education through interest-free and cardless installments.

Launched in 2021, KodeGo offers bootcamps on different IT courses to equip beginners, upskillers, and career shifters with critical and highly sought-after skills while offering company-matching support to jumpstart and progress their IT careers.

KodeGo is backed by 917Ventures, the largest corporate venture builder in the Philippines that ideates, launches, accelerates, and scales new business ideas that uplift the lives of Filipinos. Earlier this year, KodeGo joined 10 other Filipino startup companies in a ten-week virtual accelerator program designed to scale 917Ventures portfolio companies.

Through BillEase, learners can choose from competitive IT courses being offered at KodeGo and pay only the minimum upfront, then split the rest in easy installments.

"We believe that everyone should have access to education. With our partnership with BillEase, we can empower Filipinos with more affordable options to help them pursue their education and have a better future," said Cristina Gervasio, Entrepreneur-in-Residence at KodeGo.

Kurt Molina, Head of Merchant Products of BillEase said, "We are thrilled to join forces with KodeGo and support their commendable mission. By bridging the affordability gap, we enable more Filipinos to gain critical IT skills, fostering a more inclusive and competitive tech workforce."

Aspiring learners are encouraged to contact KodeGo's official social media platforms or email help@kodego.ph to request a BillEase payment guide. Settle only the minimum upfront, then split the rest into 3 installments every 2 weeks at 0% interest.

The partnership between KodeGo and BillEase aligns perfectly with both companies' objectives of broadening access to education and addressing the skills gap in the Philippines by providing equal opportunities for all. In 2020, the Philippine Institute for Developing Studies (PIDS) reported that data science analytics skills remain underdeveloped among the Philippine workforce.
