This week saw the launch in the city of Barquisimeto of Credix, a new company that seeks to expand consumer credit opportunities in the country. They are already operating in other states of the country, and on this occasion it was the turn of the twilight city to formally begin operations.
The launch event took place in one of the rooms of the Metropolis Shopping Center. I received the invitation and decided to attend because I was interested in learning more about this topic. There is a very famous app in the country that allows people to compare products or services on credit. I thought it was something similar, but after the managers explained it to me, I realized that it is different.
Esta semana se lanzó en la ciudad de Barquisimeto Credix, una nueva empresa que busca ampliar las oportunidades de crédito al consumo en el país. Ya operan en otros estados del país, y en esta ocasión le tocó el turno a la ciudad crepuscular para comenzar formalmente sus operaciones.
El evento de lanzamiento tuvo lugar en una de las salas del centro comercial Metropolis. Recibí la invitación y decidí asistir porque me interesaba saber más sobre este tema. Hay una aplicación muy famosa en el país que permite comparar productos o servicios a crédito. Pensé que era algo similar, pero después de que los gerentes lo explicaran, me di cuenta de que es diferente.
The presentation was very nice, everything was very well decorated and organized. There were special guests and, of course, traditional and digital media outlets. Six o'clock in the afternoon was the scheduled time, but we waited a few minutes to give the remaining guests a chance to arrive, so I started taking some pictures.
The only mishap during the launch was that at a certain time, the entire area lost power, and I was surprised to realize that the shopping center did not have a backup power supply to provide electricity to the area where the event was taking place. The power plants they have were only supplying electricity to the parking area. These are things that a shopping center should take into account when it knows that an activity is being held on its premises. I couldn't take many photos, and there wasn't enough light here due to the power outage.
La presentación fue muy agradable, todo estaba muy bien decorado y organizado. Había invitados especiales y, por supuesto, medios de comunicación tradicionales y digitales. La hora prevista era las seis de la tarde, pero esperamos unos minutos para que llegaran los invitados que faltaban, así que empecé a hacer algunas fotos.
El único contratiempo durante el lanzamiento fue que, en un momento dado, toda la zona se quedó sin electricidad, y me sorprendió darme cuenta de que el centro comercial no contaba con un suministro eléctrico de reserva para abastecer de electricidad a la zona donde se celebraba el evento. Las plantas eléctricas que tienen solo suministraban electricidad a la zona de aparcamiento. Son cosas que un centro comercial debe tener en cuenta cuando sabe que se va a celebrar una actividad en sus instalaciones. No pude hacer muchas fotos y no había suficiente luz debido al corte de electricidad.

This company, Credix, is part of the company that offers an internet service called Fibex. Something that the two managers in charge of the presentation made very clear is that the credit application will be a priority for Fibex customers. I believe that in this way they seek to attract more internet and digital television customers to sign up for Fibex's services, as this will allow them to benefit from Credix's services.
It is a microcredit service. They did not stipulate a maximum amount, but those who need some money and are Fibex customers who pay on time and are always up to date are the ones who will have the best chance of getting the credit they request approved. They are also associated with Ubi, an application that functions as a virtual bank, and it is through this platform that they will receive the money if the credit is approved. Everyone who was present could download the application, and there they were given a Ubi card.
I think it's a service that benefits the company's customers. Perhaps they plan to expand it to non-customers as well, but for now they want to continue working with a user base that is already active with their other company. I think it's a good option for those who can access it.
Esta empresa, Credix, forma parte de la empresa que ofrece un servicio de Internet llamado Fibex. Algo que los dos directivos encargados de la presentación dejaron muy claro es que la solicitud de crédito será una prioridad para los clientes de Fibex. Creo que de esta manera buscan atraer a más clientes de Internet y televisión digital para que se suscriban a los servicios de Fibex, ya que esto les permitirá beneficiarse de los servicios de Credix.
Se trata de un servicio de microcréditos. No estipularon una cantidad máxima, pero quienes necesiten algo de dinero y sean clientes de Fibex que pagan a tiempo y están siempre al día son los que tendrán más posibilidades de que se les apruebe el crédito que soliciten. También están asociados con Ubi, una aplicación que funciona como un banco virtual, y es a través de esta plataforma que recibirán el dinero si se aprueba el crédito. Todos los presentes pudieron descargar la aplicación y allí se les entregó una tarjeta Ubi.
Creo que es un servicio que beneficia a los clientes de la empresa. Quizás tengan previsto ampliarlo también a los no clientes, pero por ahora quieren seguir trabajando con una base de usuarios que ya está activa con su otra empresa. Creo que es una buena opción para quienes pueden acceder a ella.

What a great opportunity for the city and its people to obtain microloans, provided they meet the requirements, of course. But it's an improvement, and the event was very good, very well prepared, organized, and above all, eye-catching. The colors really stand out. It's great that you sought advice on this matter. I hope you got the card like everyone else there.
What you say is true, such a large and important shopping center should have its own generator for these cases when there are events both for itself and for the people who attend. Being prepared for these regular power outages should be a priority. Thank you, JC, for bringing this news to your city, and I'm glad you were able to go. Hugs!🤗

Es un buena opción para aquello que puedan acceder a ese servicio. A mi no me gusta sacar nada a crédito. Lo único que he sacad a crédito fue el año pasado, usando la otra app crediticia muy popar aquí, pero fue para colocar los aparatos dentales a mi hija.
Somos iguales, tampoco me gustan los créditos... prefiero pagar ya, pero bueno acá es sin intereses dependiendo de las cuotas y a muchos les gusta... me sigue sin gustar!
