Maya Savings

Maya is urging clients to save and earn up to 10% interest by using the digital bank app for payments.

Maya Savings already offers a base interest rate of 4% p.a. (up to PhP 5,000,000), but customers can boost this rate to up to 10% when they spend using Maya on load and data packages, bills and utilities, and shopping.

The more they spend using Maya, the more spending milestones will be unlocked, which leads to a higher overall interest rate. Here are the tiers:

  • 5%: Spend PhP 250 using the app for simple purchases like load and data packages to boost your base interest from 4% to 5%.
  • 6%: Spend a total of PhP 1,000 to add another 1% to your total base interest rate, so use the app to pay at convenience stores or restaurants.
  • 8%: Keep using Maya to pay bills and utilities with just a few taps; once you accumulate a total spend of PhP 20,000, the rate jacks up to 8%.
  • 10%: Lastly, spend another PhP 10,000 (PhP 30,000 total) on shopping, groceries, and more, to finally reach the 10% interest rate.

Maya’s offer is available for all Maya Savings customers from March 7 to April 30 only, while the 10% p.a. applies to deposits up to PhP 100,000.

It also only takes one valid ID and no minimum balance to open a Maya account, if you have not done that yet.

Get the Maya app on the App Store, Google Play, or AppGallery.

Roblox

Roblox describes itself as “the ultimate virtual universe that lets you create, share experiences with friends”. 

It appears to be very popular with kids. And some K-Pop groups have even launched partnerships with the game during their mini album releases.

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang 

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang or simply Mobile Legends is a game many of you should be familiar with, especially if you live in Southeast Asia. 

It’s become the de facto MOBA game for many in the region. So much so that huge tournaments have been held over the past few years.

Call of Duty: Mobile

Call of Duty is already a popular franchise on its own. It also found huge success in Asia with its mobile version. 

Call of Duty is no stranger to seasonal content as even their flagship titles operate in the same manner year after year. This is likely why players keep coming back. 

Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact took the world by storm when it first launched in 2020. The anime-like art style along with the engaging gameplay and story made it a huge hit. 

HoYoverse continues to provide fresh content to this day, expanding the already vast world in the game.

Bard is now available to try for Google One users

Join the waitlist now

Published

on

The race for artificial intelligence is a hot trail. Amid the unbridled popularity of ChatGPT, several companies have started pushing their own language models out the gate. Google, eager to compete in the emerging industry, has now opened Bard to users.

Today, Google has started issuing invitations to Google One subscribers for a chance to try the new chatbot. Subscribers can enter a waitlist to test the technology for themselves.

In essence, Bard acts the same as ChatGPT. Users can talk to the bot conversationally, and it will respond perfectly, as if you were talking to another human being. It’s a language learning model. By talking to so many users, the model can learn the best way to reply to certain prompts.

Although Google has access to its search engine, Bard is currently meant to complement it. The company warns users that the chatbot is still prone to occasional mistakes. As an example, it gave the wrong scientific name for a plant. While this example is innocuous, there can be more nefarious errors that the developers are still trying to fix. With a wider test now open to the public, Google hopes to fix more egregious mistakes ahead of a wider launch.

For now, if you subscribe to Google’s premium subscription service, you can wait in line to try out the new technology.
