If you have a UCPB home loan, you could be overpaying every single month. Nook can help you switch to rates as low as 5.99% p.a. — and it costs you nothing to find out.
UCPB BORROWER SAVINGS ESTIMATE
No commitment. No credit check. Just your numbers.
Why this matters
UCPB (United Coconut Planters Bank) has historically served millions of Filipino homeowners, but like many traditional banks, its home loan rates can drift higher than what the broader market now offers. If you took out your UCPB home loan several years ago — or if your loan has already repriced to a higher fixed rate — there is a strong chance you are paying significantly more than you need to. Refinancing simply means replacing your existing loan with a new one at a lower interest rate, either with a different bank or through a better product altogether.
Nook is the Philippines' first digital mortgage broker, and we work with all major Philippine banks to find the most competitive refinancing offer for your specific situation. We handle the comparison, the paperwork coordination, and the bank negotiations on your behalf — completely free of charge to you as the borrower. Our fee is paid by the bank that wins your loan, which means your interests and ours are perfectly aligned: we only succeed when you get a better deal.
Switching from a UCPB home loan is more straightforward than most homeowners expect. You do not need to visit multiple bank branches or submit endless documents to each one. Nook consolidates the process into a single application, presents your profile to multiple lenders simultaneously, and helps you compare real offers side by side. For a 3,000,000 loan with roughly 20 years remaining, even a modest rate reduction can translate into hundreds of thousands of pesos saved over the life of your loan.

Common questions
Yes, you can refinance at almost any point during your loan term, not just at repricing time. Many borrowers refinance mid-term when they realise their current rate is significantly higher than what the market offers. Nook will assess your remaining balance and term to confirm whether refinancing makes financial sense for your specific situation.
UCPB, like most Philippine banks, may charge an early termination or pre-payment penalty if you refinance within a fixed-rate lock-in period — typically the first three to five years of your loan. It is important to check your loan documents or contact UCPB directly to confirm any applicable fees. Nook factors these costs into your savings calculation so you get an accurate picture before making a decision.
The exact savings depend on your outstanding loan balance, remaining term, and the rate difference between your current UCPB rate and the best available refinancing rate. On a 3,000,000 loan at 8.50% refinanced to 5.99%, a borrower could save over 4,500 pesos per month and more than 800,000 pesos across a 20-year term.

The end-to-end refinancing process in the Philippines typically takes four to eight weeks from the time you submit your complete documents to receiving loan approval and disbursement. Nook streamlines the process by helping you prepare your documents correctly from the start and by maintaining direct relationships with bank credit teams. This significantly reduces back-and-forth delays compared to applying on your own.
Nook's service is completely free to borrowers — there are no consultation fees, application fees, or hidden charges at any stage of the process. Nook earns a referral fee from the bank that approves your new loan, which is standard practice for mortgage brokers and does not affect the rate or terms you receive. You get professional guidance and bank comparison at zero cost to you.
