Julia Barretto and Maris Racal Are Back Fighting for What’s “MINE” with Maya

Tweet

Julia Barretto and Maris Racal are back, and they’re taking getting more from your money to a whole new level.

In their last Maya video, the two showed what it feels like when your savings earns interest daily. Now, they’re turning their attention to everyday spending, with a new face-off over something they both want to claim.

This time, the two go head-to-head over 1% cashback when you pay with your Maya Card, making cashback something neither of them is willing to give up. The result is an all-out, wildly entertaining showdown built around one simple idea: if there’s value to be claimed from money you’re already spending, why leave it behind?

It’s a mindset that hits especially close to home today. Filipinos want more out of their money, and we’re becoming more conscious of where it goes and what we get in return—comparing prices, waiting for sales, looking for deals, and finding ways to make everyday spending go further.

Cashback taps into that same instinct. And Julia and Maris take it to an entertaining extreme. Watch just how far they’ll go to claim their cashback here: [Embed YouTube Vid: https://youtu.be/8wUazyPfWVk]

And claiming yours is much easier. Get 1% cashback on all in-store or online purchases in the Philippines when you use your Maya Card, from your morning coffee and weekly groceries to dining out, shopping, and your latest online checkout.

Julia and Maris may be fighting for what’s “MINE,” but when your everyday spending can give you something back, there’s no reason to leave yours behind.

So however you choose to spend, make that cashback MINE with your Maya Card.

From a Global First to a Bolder Comeback: Maya Unveils the 2026 Savings Calendar Featuring Julia Barretto, Maris Racal, and Jericho Rosales

Tweet

Last year, Maya, the #1 Digital Bank and leading all-in-one fintech platform in the Philippines, changed how people looked at saving, literally. With the world’s first ever Savings Calendar featuring Julia Barretto, Maya turned daily interest earnings into something you could see, track, and feel motivated by.

Now, it’s back, and this time, it’s bigger, bolder, and built for every kind of saver.

Introducing Maya’s 2026 Savings Calendar, featuring three of the country’s biggest stars—Julia Barretto, Maris Racal, and Jericho Rosales—each with their own dedicated calendar layout and striking visual identity. Whether you’re inspired by intention, ambition, or living fully in the moment, there’s a calendar that matches your saving style.

Three Stars. Different Ways to Stay Motivated

With Maya’s 2026 Savings Calendar, you can watch your money grow every day as daily interest builds your balance. No complicated math. Just the confidence of knowing your money is working for you, day after day, month after month.

For Jericho Rosales, saving is about experiences. “You can never bring back time,” he shares. “I make it a point to save for exciting things that I’ll always treasure.” For him, saving isn’t about holding back. It’s about being able to say yes to travel, good food, and moments worth remembering.

Julia Barretto represents the thoughtful planner. She believes in thinking purchases through and making sure money never sits idle. “I plan ahead so I can reach my goals and feel financially secure,” she says. The motivation comes from seeing steady progress and knowing each day brings her closer to what she’s building.

Then there’s Maris Racal, the goal-driven saver. From new spaces to new ventures, her savings journey is fueled by ambition and inspiration. “I feel happy and motivated because it’s so easy to see my money grow every day,” she says. That daily visibility turns saving into something intentional, not limiting.

Different priorities, different mindsets, same realization: saving feels better when you can actually see it working.

Why Seeing Your Money Grow Changes Everything

There’s power in visibility. When growth is something you can actually see, saving stops feeling abstract and starts feeling personal.

With up to 15% per annum credited daily, Maya Savings makes progress feel real. No waiting, no guesswork. Just small wins adding up.

Maya also offers tools that make saving feel structured without feeling restrictive. With Maya Personal Goals, you can create up to five goals, whether it’s travel, gadgets, emergency funds, or celebrations, and earn 4% p.a. right away, with the potential to grow your rate up to 8% p.a. There are no lock-ups or penalties. For longer-term commitments, Time Deposit Plus lets you lock in your savings for 3, 6, or 12 months with rates of up to 6% p.a.

It’s not about having a perfect system. It’s about starting, staying consistent, and feeling encouraged along the way. Because once you get used to seeing your money grow every day, saving stops feeling like something you should do. It becomes something you actually want to keep doing.

And just like Echo, Julia, and Maris, no matter what you’re saving for, whether it’s experiences, long-term security, or big personal goals, the point is the same: saving works best when it fits your life and lets you see your progress as it happens.
