Just tap and go when you link your Maya Credit Card to Google Pay!

Filipinos practically run their entire lives on their phones — checking group chats, booking rides, and juggling a dozen errands in between. But even with everything going digital, paying with your phone can still slow you down – especially with QR codes. Scanning with your phone, waiting for SMS confirmation, or having cashiers take screenshots and double-check a QR payment? Suddenly, your quick stop turns into a waiting game.

Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, is changing that. As one of the first banks in the country to enable Google Pay for credit cards, Maya is putting next-generation payments directly in your hands. Yup, Android users can now tap and go by simply adding their Maya Credit Card to Google Wallet. Even better? Tap to Pay via the Maya app is coming soon, making paying faster and easier than ever.

Why Tap to Pay Just Makes Sense 

Life moves fast—commuting, grabbing coffee, running errands between meetings. And through all of that, your phone is always in your hand. So, it only makes sense for paying to keep up. 

It’s no wonder most prefer tapping with their credit cards. It’s quick, convenient, and comes with rewards. But there’s an even faster way to pay: Tapping with your phone.  With Maya on Google Pay, your phone becomes your wallet. No digging through your bag, no fumbling for a card—just one motion and you’re done. Plus, you still get the rewards you love:

• Instant Maya Miles with your Maya Black Credit Card, and

• Cashback with your Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card.

An Easier & More Effortless Way to Pay

Paying with your Maya Credit Card on Google Pay is instant and incredibly smooth:

• Add your Maya Credit Card to the Google Wallet app

• Unlock your phone, open Google Wallet, and tap at any NFC-enabled terminal

• Pay anywhere Visa or Mastercard contactless is accepted globally

No extra steps. No friction. Just fast, secure, tap-and-go payments — whether you’re buying coffee, catching a ride, or checking out at your favorite stores.

Perks That Make Tapping Even Better

To celebrate this new way to pay, Maya and Visa are giving your PickUp Coffee run an upgrade. Tap to Pay with your Maya Credit Card via Google Pay and you get ₱50 off on your drink—yes, just for tapping. Your caffeine fix, now with tap-exclusive perks.

With this feature now available, you can finally ditch the unnecessary steps and go straight to the part that matters—tapping, earning, and getting on with your day. Paying shouldn’t slow your down, and now it won’t.

Escape the Performative Money Trap and Start Making Moves That Matter with Maya

 We’ve all been there: swearing that this is the year we’ll finally save, spend smarter, and stop the endless cycle of “budol” buys. But somehow, the plan to get our finances together turns into another “next time” situation.

Truth is, most of us fall into performative money habits. We mean well, but our actions don’t always match our intentions. If you’re serious about leveling up your finances before the year ends, it’s time to trade old patterns for smarter habits that actually grow your money. Thankfully, Maya, the #1 Fintech Ecosystem and #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, makes it easier (and more rewarding) to do just that.

Here’s how to break free from the usual money traps: 

1.  Start saving with purpose (and peace of mind)

Let’s be honest, if you’re saving whatever’s left after bills and brunches, there usually isn’t much left to save. It’s time to make this your first move: start treating saving like your first bill of the month and not as an afterthought  With Maya Personal Goals, you can set up specific savings targets — whether it’s for a trip, a new gadget, or an emergency fund — and earn up to 8% interest per year as you go.

Here’s how it works:

• Create up to five Personal Goals inside the Maya app.

• Name each goal, set your due date and target amount.

• Fund it from your Maya Wallet, Maya Savings, or even another bank.

Once you’ve set your goals, all that’s left to do is watch your money grow. Each one earns 4% interest per year right away, and every ₱20,000 you add unlocks a higher rate—up to 8% per year for deposits up to ₱100,000. There are no lock-up periods or penalties, so you stay flexible while still growing your money.

2. Make every spend work harder for you

If you’re spending anyway, you might as well make it count. With Maya, every swipe does more for you boosting your Maya Savings interest up to 15% p.a. and unlocking even more rewards through Maya Credit Cards.

Got weekend plans? Use your Maya Credit Card and earn up to 20% cashback when you dine anywhere until December 31, 2025. Love grocery runs or bulk shopping? The Maya Landers Credit Card gives you 5% cashback at Landers every time you stock up.

And if you want to take it up a notch, the Maya Black Credit Card lets you earn Maya Miles for every purchase so your daily spending can literally take you places.

3. Take control of credit and use it to build your future

A lot of us were raised to think credit is bad. But when done right, credit is actually a powerful tool for growth.

If you’ve never had a credit card before, Maya Black Express is a great way to start. It gives you access to credit perks of Maya Black but with less pressure. You just make a one-time Express Deposit (starting at ₱12,500) that sets your spending limit and that deposit stays in your Maya Savings, earning 3.5% interest per year while you use your card.

Every purchase helps you build your credit score, bringing you closer to qualifying for the full Maya Black Credit Card and all its lifestyle-level perks in as fast as six months.

4. Start where you are and scale with Time Deposit Plus

You don’t need to wait for a pay raise to start managing your money better. But once you’re ready to take your savings to the next level, Maya Time Deposit Plus can help you grow more consistently.

You can lock in your money for 3, 6, or 12 months with rates as high as 6% p.a. on deposits of up to ₱1 million per Time Deposit Plus account, and with up to five accounts, that’s as much as ₱5 million in total interest-earning deposits.

The best part? You can keep adding funds anytime, even after reaching your target amount. It’s perfect for anyone who wants the structure of a time deposit, but the flexibility of modern saving.

We’ve all made money mistakes — what matters is learning how to move past them. Breaking from performative habits starts with one small, intentional change, and Maya makes that change rewarding, simple, and smart.
