5 Reasons Why your PayMaya card is the Best Travel Partner

Breathtaking sights and enriching experiences aside, one of the best parts of traveling is finally taking a break from the daily routine and just relax.

Even with a detailed itinerary and razor-sharp planning skills, sometimes things just don’t go according to plan. To keep stress at bay and help you have the best trip ever, good thing a reliable travel companion is always at reach, your PayMaya card!

Here are a few ways your PayMaya physical card can make traveling hassle-free!

#1 Worry less about overspending

If you plan on traveling abroad on a budget, you can absolutely do that with your PayMaya card. Just add the exact amount you plan to spend on your account and use it without worrying about going overbudget.

Now you won’t ever have to come home to a dreaded credit card bill!

#2 Easily track and split group bills

Travelers who have been on a group trip before have surely heard of the popular phrase, “Ikaw muna, bayaran na lang kita mamaya.” It’s when everyone seems to have no change and you’re forced to pay for everybody.

If you’ve been a ‘victim’ of this phrase in your past trips, your PayMaya card will make it easier for you! When you use it to pay for meals or shop, you can easily track your expenses via the PayMaya app which is accessible anywhere with internet connection. Your friends can also easily send their share using the PayMaya app. Collecting payments has never been this easy! Agree?

#3 Pay cashless for your meals or shopping hauls

When you travel abroad, one of the most common worries is running out of foreign currency. It would definitely be stressful especially if you can’t find money changing outlets in your area!

So here’s a travel tip, always keep your PayMaya card on hand. Instead of paying with cash or foreign currency, just use your PayMaya card when you pay in Visa or Mastercard-accepting restaurants and shops.

If you really need to pay in cash abroad, no worries. We still got you covered!

#4 Withdraw foreign currency using your PayMaya card

If you end up running out of foreign currency after all the eating and shopping you had, no problem. Just look for an ATM and withdraw cash using your PayMaya card. Yes, you read that right, your PayMaya card still works for withdrawals abroad. Note that higher withdrawal fees apply.
