Mang Inasal offers online promo for its Road to 600 countdown

Tweet

Mang Inasal, one of the fastest-growing brands under Jollibee Foods Corporation, is on its way towards launching its 600th store soon.

To create further excitement on this milestone, Mang Inasal has embarked on a digital activation promo that began with the opening of its 595th store at WH Olongapo City last September 13.

Here, Mang Inasal collaborated with Filipino visual artist Paulina Luz Sotto for a movable Pinoy jeepney installation artwork, reflecting Mang Inasal’s journey towards becoming a national icon in the quick-service restaurant industry. For over 15 years now, Mang Inasal has fast become a favorite among Filipinos who look for truly satisfying, value-for-money Pinoy meals.

The jeepney art installation will move from the 595th store to the 600th store.

Customers who dine at these Mang Inasal stores can take their selfies or groupies at the Pinoy jeepney installation artwork and post them at the official Mang Inasal Facebook page. Set the image to public and use hashtags #MIRoadto600 and #MangInasalJeep.

Ten entries will be chosen randomly per new store opening, each winning Mang Inasal gift certificates worth P600.

PayMaya's new campaign jingle goes viral with 25 million views online

Tweet

Everybody’s feeling the joy of the catchy jingle—and enjoying the world of benefits brought by going cashless with PayMaya.

There are many things that make for a really catchy tune, and one of them is the power of nostalgia. PayMaya draws from that rich 90's music pool as it unleashed its new campaign, "Don't Pay Cash. PayMaya!" set to the iconic tunes of the classic Eraserheads song entitled "Ligaya."

With the unforgettable melody that heralded one of the most memorable periods in '90's Pinoy rock music enmeshed in lyrics that narrate the "joys"–or Ligaya–of paying without having to use cash, the song has definitely become an earworm, capturing the ears and hearts of netizens as it amassed a combined 25 million views on the video streaming platform YouTube and social networking site Facebook. It's a stunning feat, considering it's only been over a week since the campaign launched.

The song takes the addictive and influential original song and cleverly rewrites its lyrics to talk about all the joy, the hassle-free convenience, and the various possibilities PayMaya has to offer to everyone–from earning cashbacks when you scan-to-pay with QR for groceries, sending allowance to your loved ones without delays, and buying the most affordable prepaid load for you and your barkada, among many others.

"Most Filipinos are fans of the Eraserheads, and who hasn't heard their iconic song, ‘Ligaya’? We made a fresh and relevant take on this timeless classic for our new campaign because we truly believe that PayMaya offers a fresh and relevant way to pay, particularly for Filipinos at this day and age. The time for cashless payments has truly arrived," said Raymund Villanueva, Director and Head of Growth and Brand Marketing at PayMaya.

If you haven’t seen or heard “Don’t Pay Cash. PayMaya!” video yet, you’re definitely missing out—check out the song on YouTube and see what everyone’s been jamming to.

And if you don’t have PayMaya account yet—what are you waiting for?
