Filipinos can now dip their toes in the world of virtual assets and cryptocurrencies (crypto) with the help of the trusted e-wallet brand PayMaya.
This Christmas, PayMaya is offering Filipinos more rewards as it launches its PayMayaguinaldo campaign, where users have a chance to win as much as 1 million pesos in the Grand raffle draw and an opportunity to help micro entrepreneurs around the country. Users also have a chance to win up to P285,000 worth of prizes to be given away in the weekly raffle draws from today until January 10, 2021.
By going cashless, you can easily earn a raffle entry every time you #ScanToPay via PayMaya QR at any of their partner merchants, use your PayMaya-registered mobile number when you buy items online, or purchase prepaid load and other treats at the PayMaya in-app shop with a minimum of P100 purchase.
Every time you pay with PayMaya, you not only earn a raffle entry to win cash prizes, you also get a chance to help fellow Filipinos. With each purchase, you are also giving a PayMayaguinaldo to help micro entrepreneurs in underprivileged communities as PayMaya will also be donating a P1 million Grand Aguinaldo to Gawad Kalinga to help establish more resilient communities via micro-entrepreneurship around the country.
“Even though our Christmas celebrations won’t be the same as they have been before, there are a lot of creative ways where families can keep the holiday spirit alive. Through our ‘PayMayaguinaldo’ campaign, we hope to inspire hope and generosity among Filipinos as we offer them more reasons to give to their friends and families, share their blessings to their officemates, and even give back to underprivileged communities whenever they pay using their PayMaya accounts,” said Mark Dee, Head of Growth and Marketing at PayMaya.

Celebrating Father’s Day under the “New Normal” entails that we have to be more mindful about physical distancing, including staying at home as much as possible. So if you’re looking for ways to honor Dad this coming Sunday, having a nice family lunch or dinner with great food from his favorite restaurants is a great idea.
You can easily organize Father’s Day celebrations from the comfort of your own home as most restaurants today already accept online transactions. And with PayMaya, paying for your orders is not only much easier, it is also more rewarding. 
Pay for your meals using only the mobile number registered to your PayMaya account for an added layer of convenience and security. With this payment option from PayMaya, you no longer have to input your card details on the website which makes paying much quicker and easier. By paying online, you also avoid the risk caused by cash handling. And when you pay with PayMaya, you can even enjoy 1%, 10%, or 100% BalikBayad on your order.
Here are five Dad-approved restaurants you can conveniently order from and pay with your PayMaya mobile number:
- Frankie’s New York Buffalo Wings
Everybody loves chicken wings, and the best part about Frankie’s New York Buffalo Wings is that you can mix and match as many flavors as you want. Share and bond over dozens of Dad’s and the whole family’s favorite wing flavors to your heart’s desire—and if you haven’t tried Frankie’s yet, you should start off with the Frankie’s Classic Buffalo and Garlic Parmesan flavors, and pair it with their onion rings!
- Army Navy
If Dad’s in the mood for burgers or burritos, then you can’t go wrong with ordering from Army Navy, which is now available for delivery. Get him a California Burger, and throw in an extra patty for a double if he’s got a big appetite. And if he wants a burrito, how about ordering a steak or sisig burrito for good measure? The possibilities are limitless!
- Central Delivery
Central Delivery is the hub of all your favorite food – from Popeyes’ famous fried chicken and biscuits to Kuya J’s crispy pata and halo-halo, along with your favorites at Landers Central, Da Gianni, and Dough & Co. Whatever cuisine your family members are craving for, you can easily order them at Central Delivery.
- SobanK-Town Grill
Who hasn’t missed Korean samgyupsal buffets during the quarantine? Fortunately, Soban K-Town Grill is able to deliver their famed barbecue meats straight to your home. If you miss the samgyupsal experience, go for their BBQ Sets—either the Mega Meat or Favorite Feast BBQ Sets will satisfy your Korean barbecue craving. You can also order the barbecue meats a la carte if everyone wants more!
- Boozy
What’s a Father’s Day celebration without drinks? Celebrate the company of family with Dad’s favorite liquor; no matter what it is, you can find it and have it delivered to your home through Boozy. Or if you’d prefer, you can suggest something new for him to appreciate—how about trying a smooth and easy drink like Hennessy VS?
Paying with your PayMaya mobile number is easy. All you have to do is follow these simple steps:
- Order your meals at the website of your chosen restaurant.
- Proceed to checkout and choose the online payment/credit card option.
- You will be redirected to the PayMaya Checkout page. Here, click the Pay with PayMaya button.
- Log in using your PayMaya mobile number and password.
- An SMS with the One-Time Pin (OTP) will be sent to your mobile number. Key in the OTP on the webpage to verify your transaction.

Note: If you don’t have your own PayMaya account yet, it’s easy to sign up in time for Father’s Day! Just download the PayMaya app for Android or iOS
All that’s left to do is wait for your order and enjoy a nice family meal with Dad. Basta food deliveries, don’t pay cash. PayMaya!

Have you seen the action-packed TVC of “Don’t Pay Cash. PayMaya!” starring one of the hottest love teams in the country, KathNiel. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out this video.
After more than a year of not being seen together on-screen, “Teen Royalties” Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla reunite for a new project with PayMaya’s “BalikBayad” campaign.
Aside from “KathNiel,” celebrated veteran actor Rez Cortez (2nd from right) also made a comeback as the inimitable “kontrabida” in PayMaya’s latest “BalikBayad” campaign video, which saw him and his goons battling the two young actors in a cash versus PayMaya action sequence.
Set as a typical ‘90’s action movie complete with guns, goons, and even the penultimate “Pinoy Kontrabida” in the form of Rez Cortez, the campaign video features the two young celebrities using the powers of PayMaya to tackle everyday transactions that are typically paid with cash, such as grocery shopping, paying bills, buying load, and online shopping, among many others.
The TVC will give you LSS(Last song syndrome)as “Don’t Pay Cash. PayMaya!” paired up a catchy video and jingle set to the tune of the hit ‘90’s Eraserheads song “Ligaya,”
“We’re very excited to have KathNiel representing the ‘BalikBayad’ campaign, because just as these two big celebrity icons have made a comeback for PayMaya this year, our users can also expect something to come back–in the form of cashback–every time they use PayMaya instead of cash. PayMaya is a young and fun brand and we’re definitely lucky to have collaborated with Kathryn and Daniel in this campaign, because they represent the exciting and energetic lifestyles of most of our users,” said Mark Jason Dee, Head of Growth and Marketing of PayMaya.
In February alone, users can get as much as P6,000 in cashback when they participate in the mobile wallet’s various promos for bills payment, buying load, paying for goods and services via QR, online shopping, and sending money, among many others.
The brand also has also expanded the list of merchants and establishments under its PayMaya Preferred program, which gives additional cashback to users who scan to pay with PayMaya QR on top of the regular cashback that they usually receive. Some of these new partners include Landers Superstore, Mercury Drug, KFC, Robinson’s Department Store, Total Alabang and Valenzuela, and Toys ‘R Us, among many others.
Bringing back time and convenience
But aside from getting monetary rewards in the form of cashback every time they pay, users are also able to make more time and experience greater convenience. With PayMaya’s virtual card, for example, users can instantly gain access to a payment card which they can easily use for online shopping and other digital payments for a faster, more efficient payment experience.
Recently, the brand introduced the ability to transfer money from users’ PayMaya account to other bank accounts, eliminating the need to wait in line at bank branches in order to make a bank deposit.
“PayMaya users can definitely look forward to even more features and services that will give them more convenient ways to pay as well as awesome rewards in the months to come,” Dee added.
DON’T HAVE PAYMAYA YET?
Filipinos can get in on the most rewarding mobile wallet experience by downloading the app on iOS or Android devices and using the code PAYMAYAKATHNIEL upon signing up to get an instant reward, apart from the many other cashback and discount perks they can get by being a PayMaya user.
