About Salmon

Salmon is a fast-growing consumer fintech group, founded in July 2022 with the mission of building the leading credit-led neobank in Southeast Asia.

We are building a 24/7/365 technology-driven financial platform to create thousands of jobs and provide millions of Filipinos with accessible, high-quality financial services.
