Back in 2017, I launched Pahiram.ph with a simple but powerful mission:
To make borrowing and lending items easier, safer, and more accessible for Filipinos.
The idea was born out of a clear need—so many of us have idle tools, gear, and equipment sitting around, while others are constantly looking to borrow those very things for short-term use. Pahiram.ph bridged that gap, offering a platform where individuals and organizations could rent or lend items securely and conveniently.
What Happened?
By 2020, Pahiram.ph had started gaining traction. We ranked #1 on Google for the keyword “pahiram” and had built a strong foundation for a peer-to-peer rental economy in the Philippines.
Then the pandemic hit.
Like many startups, we were forced to shut down operations due to the uncertainty and limitations brought on by lockdowns. Physical rentals became difficult, and priorities shifted.
But I never forgot about Pahiram.
The Relaunch That Almost Was
Fast forward to 2025—I had planned to relaunch Pahiram.ph with improved features, better UX, and a renewed marketing strategy. The goal was to evolve the platform into a powerful SaaS rental solution for both individuals and businesses.
However, plans change.
This year, I’ve decided to pursue other directions, and rather than letting Pahiram.ph remain on the shelf, I want to hand it off to someone who can take it further.
What’s Included in the Sale
If you’re looking to jumpstart a rental marketplace business—or expand your current offering—this is a plug-and-play opportunity.
Here’s what comes with the acquisition:
✅ The Pahiram.ph domain (currently ranks #1 for “pahiram” on Google)
✅ All official social media pages
✅ A fully functional rental platform – ready for users
✅ All brand assets, including logo, branding kit, and UI components
✅ The original vision, and the trust it built during its active years
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Brand Recognition: The word “Pahiram” is familiar and meaningful to Filipinos—easy to recall, and emotionally resonant.
Organic SEO Advantage: With strong ranking on Google for relevant keywords, you’ll already have visibility.
Market Potential: The rental economy continues to grow post-pandemic, with a rising focus on sustainability and cost-sharing.
Turnkey Platform: No need to build from scratch—the platform works and is ready for relaunch or rebranding.
Final Thoughts
I’ve poured years of work into building Pahiram.ph, and while I’m stepping away from this particular journey, I truly believe in the platform’s potential. If you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or organization looking for a ready-to-go project with strong foundations, Pahiram.ph might be exactly what you’re looking for.
