foodpanda Philippines Wins Silver in the 2022 Marketing Excellence Awards


Online food and grocery delivery platform foodpanda clinched a Silver Award at the 2022 Marketing Excellence Awards for its #Cravingfor Emoji Engine campaign on Twitter.

The ad campaign, which ran on the social media platform from October 22 to November 30, 2021 and facilitated by Entravision MediaDonuts, is one of three grand winners in the Excellence in Social Media Marketing category.

According to Lorelei Olalia, Head of Integrated Marketing Communications of foodpanda Philippines, the objective of the campaign was to strengthen the connection of their brand with Filipino foodies. “We turned to Twitter knowing that its food-related conversations can help us reach foodpanda’s target audience and delight them in a unique way even in the crowded food delivery service landscape.”

Through Entravision MediaDonuts, the advertising arm of Twitter in the Philippines, foodpanda created a phased campaign that aimed to drive massive awareness and fuel engagement through Twitter’s innovative execution. The Emoji Engine, an #OnlyOnTwitter format, provided users an easy way to redeem vouchers and discover foodpanda’s partner restaurants in the Philippines.

foodpanda’s #Cravingfor Emoji Engine campaign generated a remarkable increase in conversations and in users talking about the brand. As a result, there was also a significant improvement in positive brand sentiments.

According to Guilherme de Moura Porto, Director of Growth at foodpanda Philippines, “At the heart of this campaign is our goal to build stronger relationships with our customers–whether attracting new app users or engaging existing ones. With exciting innovations such as Twitter’s Emoji Engine, we aim to provide customers with an exceptional experience unique to foodpanda while also driving core business objectives.

“Our deepest thanks to our agency partner Entravision MediaDonuts and Marketing Interactive for this outstanding recognition,” added de Moura Porto.

#GSafeTayo: GCash to roll out ‘double authentication’ to arrest unauthorized transactions

Signs agreement with PNP-ACG to strengthen fight vs cybercrimes

GCash is set to roll out a new security feature that aims to prevent unauthorized transactions brought about by phishing and other types of scams.

GCash and PNP ACG strengthens collaboration through a revitalized security campaign, #SafewithGCash that aims  to mitigate scam incidents by employing a combination of user education and continuously upgrading its internal security platform to serve its 71 M users.
From L-R: GCash Head of Enterprise Risk Management Bea De Ocampo, GCash Chief Legal Officer, Atty. Maricor Alvarez-Adriano, GCash Chief Customer Officer Winsley Royce Bangit, PBGEN Joel Doria, Director PNP ACG; Police Colonel Bernard Yang


With #GSafeTayo the Philippines’ number one financial app introduced the “double authentication” feature which can ensure that only the account owner has the ability to link his GCash account to a specific device.

“This feature removes customers’ dependence on SMS OTPs which has been exploited by some fraudsters to scam users. It will provide a unique identifier that can’t be phished by scammers. It also provides an additional layer of security to the current SMS OTP,” said Winsley Bangit, Chief Customer Officer of GCash. “We never stop innovating to make sure our 71 million users have the safest and most convenient experience when they use the app.”

GCash has also introduced a new product under its GInsure platform, "Online Shopping Protect". For just P34 per month, get up to Php20,000 in insurance coverage for incomplete deliveries, defective items, accidentally-damaged, or stolen products.


The new offering, which will launch soon on GInsure, is powered by global insurance company, Chubb.

Aside from continuing to beef up its security measures, GCash has also been ramping up its partnership with authorities and regulators to help ensure the whole e-wallet ecosystem is safe for all.

During the #GSafeTayo media launch, GCash also signed a memorandum of agreement with the Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) to strengthen collaboration in going after perpetrators involved in phishing, smishing, online fraud, e-scams, vishing, and other cybercrimes that take advantage of GCash users.

“I would like to express my confidence that through our stronger partnership with the PNP-ACG, we will be able to achieve more in the prevention, investigation, and prosecution of cybercrimes. GCash also assures the PNP-ACG that we will do whatever we can in order to successfully implement our agreement,” said GCash Chief Legal Officer Atty. Maricor Alvarez-Adriano.

Through its intensified security campaign under #GSafeTayo, GCash has also been constantly reminding its users to never share their MPIN or OTP, as well as to never click links outside of the GCash app, especially from websites or senders which you have not verified to be legitimate.

In fact, GCash has already removed all clickable links in its official SMS and emails to users to help them determine that when they receive messages with links, then these are scams.

The e-wallet has also migrated transaction notification messages to the in-app inbox and masked the names of send money recipients to further protect the users’ funds and personal data.

Through its revitalized security campaign, GCash is aiming to mitigate scam incidents by employing a combination of user education, increased cooperation with law enforcement agencies, as well as continuously upgrading its internal security platform.

Check your crypto wallet for FREE Bitcoin whenever you pay with Maya! Plus, get a chance to receive ₱1M worth of Bitcoin, just like Reinzel C!

The hype is real—all-in-one money app Maya is giving its users free Bitcoin, plus a chance to take home PHP 1,000,000.00 worth of this popular cryptocurrency – and all you have to do is pay with Maya.

In the past few days, social media was abuzz with Maya users sharing their delightful surprise of randomly receiving free Bitcoin. Digital billboards in various cities prompted specific Maya users by name to check their crypto wallets to see if they are lucky recipients of free Bitcoin. One Maya user, Cebu student Reinzel Cabrera, even received a shocking PHP 1,000,000.00 worth of Bitcoin with virtually no effort – just by regularly paying with Maya!
Maya now reveals that everyone can get FREE Bitcoin and, like Reinzel, have the chance to receive PHP 1,000,000.00 in Bitcoin. Here's how:
  • Just pay with Maya via QR, mobile number, or card at stores all over the Philippines and online 
  • Get free Bitcoin up to P500 each month until September 30! Every purchase gives you guaranteed Bitcoin worth 1%, 10%, or 100% of your purchase. For example, your PHP 500 purchase can give you PHP 5, PHP 50 or PHP 500 in free Bitcoin! 
  • Wait for the SMS notification and then check your crypto wallet to claim your free Bitcoin 😎 
  • The more you pay with Maya, the more chances to get PHP 1,000,000 in Bitcoin every month, during the promo period
"Maya is already the most accessible way to get into cryptocurrency in the Philippines starting as low as PHP1.00 and our Free Bitcoin promo drives even further accessibility while providing more opportunities for our customers to grow and master their money," said Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer for Maya. "We’re excited to be the first Philippine fintech to offer Bitcoin as a reward and form of cashback (or cryptoback!) whenever customers pay merchants with Maya. There’s no better time to take advantage of our all-in-one money app to start paying for all your wants and needs because it’s a risk-free way to get into crypto. Sayang ang Free Bitcoin!"

Reinzel Cabrera, a student from Cebu City and a loyal Maya user, takes a selfie in front of the digital billboard dedicated to him after receiving the news of the PHP 1,000,000 worth of free Bitcoin from Maya. The money app encourages its users to keep paying with Maya for their everyday purchases to receive free Bitcoin, just like Reinzel!

Cryptocurrencies are decentralized digital currencies that one can use to make transactions online or wait for their value to increase and then sell them for a profit. Launched in April 2022, Maya's crypto feature lets users buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrencies for as low as PHP 1.00, making it ideal for crypto novices and enthusiasts. Maya has been granted the Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas for its crypto services, ensuring all transactions are legitimate and safe.

Maya is the only wallet in the country that provides users with a seamless, all-in-one crypto experience allowing users to buy, sell, hold, and even spend their crypto earnings in just one app. Those who earn from crypto can reap the additional funds to pay bills, buy load, shop for groceries, or even save on their Maya Savings feature, which can grow even further by up to 6%.

Completely free to download and register, Maya packs a feature-rich e-wallet, an inclusive digital bank, and everything else you need to save, spend, grow, and manage your money—right from your smartphone.

Maya is powered by the country's only end-to-end digital payments company, PayMaya Philippines, and Maya Bank for digital banking services. For more information and updates from the country's all-in-one money platform, visit maya.ph.

Five Things You Can Do with ShopeePay

Send money for free, get bills cashback, and more when you use ShopeePay.

Nowadays, there are mobile apps for just about everything, even for activities like shopping or making financial transactions that we previously could not do online. With thousands of apps available for our use, it's best to choose one with different features so you don’t have to constantly switch between apps. Are you looking for versatility and convenience? Then ShopeePay is for you. To get started, simply download the Shopee app, activate and verify your ShopeePay Wallet. From paying for items on Shopee to sending money, there’s a lot you can accomplish with Shopee’s integrated mobile wallet.
Here’s a quick rundown of the things you can do with ShopeePay so you won’t miss out:

1. Avoid bank fees when you cash in via InstaPay or link your bank account

There are plenty of ShopeePay cash in channels to choose from like payment centers, e-wallets, online banking, debit cards, and more. Aside from these convenient options, did you know that you can also avoid admin fees and cash in for free? One way is to link your BPI or UnionBank account to cash in for free. For those with a different bank, cashing in is also free when you use InstaPay on your bank’s online app—get up to P25 cashback on your first two InstaPay transactions per month.

To make the experience even more rewarding, you can join the ‘Cash In and Win with InstaPay’ promo and stand a chance to win P100,000 worth of prizes when you cash in at least P1,000 via InstaPay from June 27 to 30. Cash in as many times as you can to earn more raffle entries.

2. Send money to any bank, e-wallet, or Shopee user for free

Need to send money to your friends or family? No need to worry about paying additional fees. The best thing about sending money with ShopeePay is that it’s free, no hidden fees. Choose from different ways to instantly send money— to bank account, e-wallet, scan to send via QR, or try the new Ang Pao feature. You can use ShopeePay Ang Pao to surprise your friends and family during special occasions or to send money to multiple people at the same time without incurring additional charges.

We’re used to purchasing prepaid load from reloading stations that usually add extra costs on top of the load. Why pay full price or more when you can call, text, and surf the net with discounted load and data promos from ShopeePay? Get up to 10% discount for mobile load and data from the country’s major networks when you top up your prepaid SIM. Tip: Check out ShopeePay’s flash deals and payday discounts for more offers.

How these top-performing sellers grow their businesses through Shopee’s mega sales

Shopee’s Seller Recognition Operations Awardees highlight how efficient operations contribute to online success
In the Philippines, double day dates such as 9.9 and 11.11 have become highly anticipated due to shopping festivals offered by platforms such as Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. In fact, last year over 2 billion items were purchased by shoppers during 11.11 alone across the region. This uptick in purchases made during mega-sales allowed more than 1,000 local sellers across the region to exceed US$100,000 in sales during Shopee’s year-end festivals in 2021.

Alongside hard work and determination, the success of Shopee sellers relies heavily on how efficiently they operate. This is especially true during mega-sales where the opportunity for growth is high. For this reason, Shopee recognizes sellers who go above and beyond in time for Shopee’s mega-sale days through its Seller Recognition Operations Awards.

Martin Yu, Shopee Philippines Director, said, “Shopee has always been committed to helping businesses create long-term, sustainable e-commerce strategies in today’s digital economy. Through the Seller Recognition Operations Awards, we are able to highlight top-performing sellers in this regard, as well as their strategies and insights which their fellow sellers can learn from and apply to their businesses.”

Jenna Indigado, owner of Small Wonders Page and a recent awardee, is among those who diligently prepares for and maximizes mega-sale days to grow her business on Shopee. She decided to become a full-fledged Shopee seller in 2020 when her agricultural business was affected by the African Swine Flu (ASF) breakout that year.

“After our hog-raising business was affected by ASF, I made the decision to sell on Shopee full-time. I already had a part-time reselling business on the platform in 2018 so I knew the potential for growth was huge especially if I committed my time and resources to it.”

She went on to hire a local seamstress to grow her reselling business into one that manufactures clothing for babies. Today, she employs more than 300 Filipinos.

“There were only two of us when we started the Small Wonders Page at Shopee. Now, we employ around 250 local seamstresses and 70 employees who have gone on to fulfill their dreams and even purchase their own cars and houses. Without Shopee, we wouldn’t be able to provide jobs for these Filipinos,” she said.

She says her experience as a Shopee seller, the platform’s features, as well as guidance from her dedicated relationship manager are key factors for her business success especially during mega-sale days.

“Having a dedicated relationship manager helps us create strategies to maintain product visibility, eliminate backlog, and fast-track order processing and fulfillment during mega-sales. During campaigns we also make sure to utilize features such as Chat Broadcast, ShopeeLive, and ShopeeAds in order to connect with our customers and inform them about our new products, discounts, and deals.”

Charles Barrientos of Mikana store, a recent awardee as well, also shares that alongside the hard work that comes with preparing for mega-sale days, these highly anticipated dates are integral to their business. His decision to launch Mikana, a store that specializes in jewelry, on Shopee was because he learned about how Shopee provides features and guidance to cater to its sellers’ growth. Besides these tools, he says constant adjustments and preparation are what help drive his business success.
“Preparing for peak days and seasons comes with its challenges because of the sudden increase in demand. There are times wherein we have to extend our operations and double our efforts especially since mega-sale days are a big part of our sales.”

He also highlights how Shopee’s user-centric platform helps them maintain a good relationship with their customers. “Shopee has an efficient customer service feature which allows us to address the concerns of our customers directly and improve how we serve them.”

Like Jenna and Charles, you can conveniently join Shopee as a seller and grow your business today. Learn more and Get Started on Shopee.

If you're a fan of Pizza Hut's fun, bold, and playful offerings, you're in for a treat! Now, you can have your favorite pizzas and side dishes delivered straight to your doorstep in a way that is even more convenient and hassle-free, as Pizza Hut recently rolled out several improvements for the order functions of its official website!
Among the new improvements is the implementation of a dynamic localization widget, which ensures a smoother experience when ordering using the website! This widget allows first name personalization; prompts you to enable location services; enables store messages to be shown within the widget instead of a current pop up against a black background; and allows you to choose an alternative date if a store is closed for various reasons, among many others. It's an innovative way to help you satisfy your cravings!
Another new feature designed to provide added convenience when you use the website is the option of reordering a previous order, all with just a single tap. To do this, you must first log in to the website. Once you confirm your delivery address, your last order will be shown, and you will have the option of clicking the "Reorder" button. Upon clicking it, the order will be placed. To make it even more convenient, your previous delivery address and top 3 items ordered will be shown on the website's homepage. With this, you'll be able to enjoy your go-to sets in a way that's truly hassle-free!


Last but not least is an order tracker that is integrated into the website, which will allow you to easily track your delivery. The tracking process consists of five stages. First is "Order submitted" which indicates that the order has been placed and acknowledged. This is followed by "In progress/confirmation" which indicates that the order has been confirmed and email confirmation will be sent to you.

The third stage, "Order is being prepared," means that the order is being assembled by the store, while the fourth stage, "Order is being out for delivery," indicates that the rider is on the way to deliver the order. The last is "Completed," which means that the order has been delivered or the rider has arrived at the delivery address. With the real-time tracking feature, you'll be able to know exactly when your order will arrive, which will surely amp up the excitement!

"For Pizza Hut, making it easy for pizza lovers to order their favorites is as important as providing good food that will satisfy their cravings every time," said Raymund Nobleza, Sr. Manager, Pizza Hut Marketing. This new set of improvements on our official website is just one of the many ways we are helping our customers experience the bold, fun, and flavorful offerings from Pizza Hut that they have come to know and love."

What are you waiting for!? Get that pizza party rolling by ordering your Pizza Hut favorites through the official website: www.pizzahut.com.ph!

IKEA officially opens online store to the Filipinos, operates 24/7


IKEA officially opens its online store to Filipino consumers. The online store will now operate 24/7.

“After several weeks of learning from our test-run, we are glad that we are now accessible to more Filipinos,” said Georg Platzer, Store Manager of IKEA Pasay City. “We are very excited to be part of the lives of the many people in the Philippines and share in their dreams of a better life at home.”

Last September, IKEA went on a test-run for its online store, where it opened up online shopping with limited capacity. This was to test all operational and technical processes and ensure an enjoyable and hassle-free online shopping experience.

Best buys online

IKEA’s most popular items during the test run came from the home storage and workspace categories. Additionally, lower-priced home décor items like the KUPONG Alarm clock (PHP90), FEJKA Artificial potted plant (PHP290), and BONDIS Wall clock (PHP590) were some of the most added to cart items online.

Children’s items also remained popular among online visitors and shoppers, with items like the small KRAMIG Soft Toy (PHP200), the functional TROFAST Storage box (PHP150), and the fully-stocked DUKTIG Play kitchen (PHP5,990) getting added to online carts.

Ready to add to cart?

To shop online, customers must first create an IKEA website account, which is different from their IKEA Family membership information. After that, online shoppers can choose what products they want, add to cart, and then proceed to check out. IKEA accepts payments via major credit cards, GCash, and installments via BDO.

Delivery options

IKEA offers three delivery options: truck, parcel, and click and collect. Orders that do not exceed more than 30 kg in weight and 1.8 meters in length and height will be considered as parcel orders. If an order exceeds more than 30 kg, and the height and length are more than 1.8 meters, it will be considered as a truck delivery order. Online shoppers can also choose to pick up their orders in select collection points

Truck delivery orders are currently limited to Metro Manila only while parcel deliveries extend to the greater Metro Manila area including Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, parts of Quezon (up to Lucena), Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac, Bataan, and Subic.

IKEA Family

To make the most out of the IKEA shopping experience, Platzer urged shoppers to sign up for IKEA Family to begin earning points from their purchases. This also sets them up to enjoy in-store only perks once the Pasay City store opens later this year. To date, there are over 221K IKEA Family Members. Sign up to IKEA Family here.
