Exciting new features unveiled at the partnership launch
GoTyme Bank, a Gokongwei Group Bank, has partnered with Cebu Pacific and Go Rewards to enable more Juans to reach their dream destinations by boosting rewards points earned from flights. These can then be redeemed to pay for flights and flight add-ons!
By using a GoTyme Bank Visa Debit or Virtual Card, passengers of Cebu Pacific who are paying for their flights can increase the Go Rewards points they can earn and receive even more extra points with the brand-new “Rewards Boosted” feature.
Once a customer’s Go Rewards points stack up, they can use their points to even book flights at Cebu Pacific for free—something Filipinos with upcoming travel plans can benefit from!
“Partnering with Cebu Pacific was our natural next step,” shared Raymund Villanueva, GoTyme Bank’s Head of Marketing. “This partnership brings together three key features of the Gokongwei Group – Cebu Pacific’s mission to fly every Juan, Go Rewards’ meaningful rewards and experiences, and GoTyme Bank’s aim to unlock the Filipinos’ financial potential through next-level banking.”
Villanueva continued, “Our GoTyme Bank Visa Debit Card is fast becoming the preferred method of payment within the Gokongwei Group of retail stores. We want to continue solidifying that reputation by boosting the Go Rewards points earned if you use your GoTyme Bank Visa Debit Card – both physical and virtual as the method of payment in Cebu Pacific. We’re also working on additional promos and rewards that will give our customers more ways to enjoy this partnership and our GoTyme Bank Virtual Visa Card”.
“Go Rewards is Cebu Pacific’s loyalty program, and with GoTyme Bank boosting the rewards points our customers get, we’ll be able to boost everyJuan’s confidence that they can start creating travel memories again,” said Candice Iyog, Cebu Pacific Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer, who took part in the unveiling of the partnership at Palacio De Memoria in Parañaque on February 9.
“With GoTyme Bank’s rewards booster, Filipinos can get more travel experiences! Every Juan can get a free GoTyme Bank Visa Debit Card in Robinsons Supermarket and Department Store, and download the Go Rewards app,” Cesca Silvestre-Cruz, Growth Marketing Director of Go Rewards, added.
