MANILA, Philippines — GoTyme Bank, a joint venture between the Gokongwei Group and multi-country digital banking group Tyme, continues to make it easier for customers to send, receive, and manage money across borders as the Holiday season nears.
“Banking should do more than just move money — it should bring people closer to the things and the people that matter most,” GoTyme Bank president and CEO Nate Clarke.
“For Filipinos abroad, every remittance carries hard work, sacrifice, and love. Through our secure and transparent remittance services, and with the support of our partners at Cebu Pacific and TapTap Send, we are thrilled to offer our customers not just a better way to send money, but a real opportunity to come home and hold their loved ones close this season,” Clarke said.
Customers sending money abroad can initiate transfers through the app anytime, with the fees, exchange rate, estimated arrival time, and expected amount the recipient will receive shown upfront before they confirm the transaction, giving them greater visibility and control.
Through GoTyme Bank’s Send Money Abroad service, customers can send money to more than 200 countries and territories in eight currencies.
For Filipinos receiving money from abroad, funds can be sent directly to their GoTyme Bank account through an international bank via SWIFT, supported remittance partners such as TapTap Send, or participating Visa partners. GoTyme Bank’s SWIFT transfers are powered by Wise.
This Christmas season, GoTyme Bank is giving overseas Filipinos the chance to win round-trip flights and cash prizes by sending or receiving qualifying international remittances through the GoTyme Bank app.
The holiday raffle, which runs from Sept. 16 to Nov. 30, is made possible through partnerships with Cebu Pacific, the campaign’s official airline partner, and TapTap Send, a leading global remittance provider.
Five grand prize winners will receive round-trip economy flights for themselves and a companion, along with additional prizes designed to make their homecoming even more special.
“Home is where Filipinos want to be during the holidays, and at Cebu Pacific, we are proud to play a part in bringing them there,” Cebu Pacific marketing director of Cebu Pacific Michelle Eve de Guzman said.
“Whether they are coming from Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, UAE, or Saudi Arabia, we are committed to flying more Filipinos closer to their families and loved ones. Through our partnership with GoTyme Bank, we hope to make more homecomings possible and remind every Juan that no matter how far they go, there is always a flight that can bring them home,” De Guzman said.
GoTyme Bank customers must opt in and will automatically earn one raffle entry for every qualifying international remittance of at least P5,000 sent or received directly through the GoTyme Bank app.
