Hundreds of mall-goers spending quality time with their friends and families at Eastwood City Mall in Quezon City last Saturday, May 18, were treated to a special surprise by PayMaya where they got a chance to take home limited-edition travel goodies and even an all expense-paid vacation for four as part of PayMaya's "Tara!" travel campaign.  

By simply being a PayMaya account holder, mall-goers got a chance to bring home exciting travel items by joining in the Maya Piñata activity. Participating customers just had to pull a string from their chosen Maya piñata to reveal a special travel item. 

Gwynne Gatanela, a mall-goer at Eastwood, pulled the lucky string and won the ultimate prize of day, an all-expense paid vacation to Boracay for her and her barkada, complete with their own photographer to capture their insta-worthy travel photos.  

This special prize is just a glimpse of the awesome travel experience waiting for the winner of  PayMaya’s ongoing Tara! Promo which gives users a chance to fly to the most sought-after destinations in the world, with his own barkada, complete with their own photo and video team to document their favorite vacation moments.  

"As we wrap up our Tara! travel promo campaign, we wanted to give this surprise treat so people can have a chance to experience an elevated travel experience themselves. There's no doubt that with your PayMaya card, you get the best travel experience out there," said Raymund Villanueva, Vice President and Head of Growth and Marketing for PayMaya Philippines 

Recently, PayMaya reported that more and more Filipinos are discovering the benefits of going cashless in their travels, especially with the PayMaya card on hand, their best travel buddy. These PayMaya customers use their accounts to purchase airline tickets, book accommodations online, and spend on their travels oversees through their PayMaya card, in the first quarter of the year.  

With PayMaya, shopping abroad is as easy as a simple swipe as you can use it in all Visa-and Mastercard-accepting stores worldwide. There is no need to call your bank or card provider before your trips so you can focus on planning your itinerary to your dream destination. 

Withdrawing for extra cash is also a breeze because you can do it anytime on any Visa Plus or MasterCard ATM abroad. And most importantly, your money is secured because you can check every transaction on your PayMaya app and you can easily block your card here if it ever gets stolen.    

Get a chance to win the travel experience of a lifetime
