Maya is offering consumers the opportunity to convert eligible electronics and home appliance purchases to 3-month Mini Payment plans with 0% interest.

That’s through the Maya Black Credit Card or the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card. The promo period runs from August 1 to October 31, 2026, giving consumers more financial flexibility.

In addition, processing fees will be waived for Mini Payment plans availed until September 30.

Purchases will continue to earn instant Maya Miles or Landers Cashback Points with use of the corresponding card.

To avail of the mini-payment offer, simply make a single straight purchase worth at least PhP 10,000 using either card.

Once the transaction is posted on the Maya app, select the transaction and tap “Convert to Mini Payments”. Then, choose the 3-month Mini Payment plan to enjoy the promo.

GCash is future-proofing micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) with new customer-first payment innovations. This, as the Philippines continues to become a digital payments nation.

The app expanded its suite of solutions to make digital payments more accessible, convenient, and secure for merchants.

Rather than a one-size-fits-all solution, GCash has payment devices designed for different business sizes and ways of operating.

One is the GCash EasyPOS, an all-in-one terminal for medium and even large enterprises. This accepts QRPh, Visa, and Mastercard payments and also supports features like digital receipts, refunds, settlements, and transaction monitoring.

Meanwhile, GCash SoundPay Plus is designed for micro and small merchants, specially in the retail and F&B sectors. It combines QR payments, card acceptance, and instant voice confirmation so merchants can immediately check when a payment pushes through.

The rollout of these two solutions builds on earlier solutions GCash introduced, including PocketPay and SoundPay.

PocketPay is designed for MSMEs, bazaar or pop-up merchants, and mobile sellers who take their products and services wherever their customers are.

It turns an NFC-enabled Android smartphone into a contactless card terminal. This makes payments easy and affordable — without investing in additional hardware.

SoundPay, meanwhile, is a portable QR payment device that provides instant voice confirmation for every transaction.

According to Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), 57.4% of retail payment transactions by volume were made digitally in 2024.

The central bank is targeting a digital payment share of 60% to 70% by 2028, with businesses increasingly expected to support cashless transactions.

GoTyme Bank has reached the 10 million-user milestone in the Philippines, one of its key markets.

A joint venture between the parent Tyme Group and the the local Gokongwei Group, the digital bank has officially grown to 10 million strong, its latest accomplishment after debuting in the country three years ago.

The milestone is backed by over PhP 53 billion (~859.4 million) in customer deposits and sustained engagement across the GoTyme Bank ecosystem.

A core driver of the bank’s rapid growth is its integration into users’ daily financial habits. GoTyme was the Most Used Visa Debit Card in the Philippines, based on Visa debit active usage data in 2025.

The bank has also offered free InstaPay transfers from the start (capped at 20 transactions a month) for greater flexibility. There are also more than 160 billers on the app.

Complementing the digital-first infrastructure is an extensive physical network. There are now more than 600 kiosks in major malls nationwide.

Customers can also conveniently deposit and withdraw cash through more than 2,500 Robinsons Retail store lanes. Cash deposit is also allowed through more than 4,500 7-Eleven stores nationwide.

Among GoTyme’s recent offerings is MoreTyme, a flexible, transparent, and easy-to-understand credit solution.

Through Visa, GoTyme also took part in FIFA World Cup 2026 campaigns, with raffle winners being flown to watch the matches live.
