Tookitaki has established a new satellite office at Ayala Triangle Tower One in Makati City, in Manila Philippines.

The launch marks a formal expansion of the firm’s presence in the region, following a year of operating from a shared workspace to build its local network.

The dedicated facility aims to provide on-the-ground support for Philippine financial institutions managing substantial daily transaction volumes.

Currently, the technology firm supplies artificial intelligence systems to local platforms such as GCash, Maya, GoTyme, and PayMongo.

These systems are designed to identify complex fraud patterns, uncover money mule networks, and enhance anti-money laundering (AML) protocols.

Company leadership emphasised the necessity of adapting to evolving digital threats.

Founder and Chief Executive Officer Abhishek Chatterjee noted that as financial crime grows increasingly complex, institutions must integrate intelligent technologies to keep pace.

“Our presence in Manila allows us to bring these capabilities closer to Philippine financial institutions and support their continued growth,” Chatterjee stated.

Furthermore, Tookitaki President Isabel Ridad highlighted the strategic value of the country’s dynamic digital financial ecosystem and its skilled talent pool.

By cementing a physical presence, the company intends to improve client response times and facilitate closer collaboration across the Southeast Asian financial sector.
