Maya Bank exciting Updates this June!

MAYA had an intimate gathering at their HQ to share with the media exciting updates that customers can expect this June like the Personal Goals, new crypto coins and so much more.

Fresh from its new brand launch, there's no stopping MAYA from taking over the money app game and new introducing new features and updates for its consumers. Recently, Maya also (lowkey) launched a music video in partnership with Shanti Dope. The song/video gained positive feedback and reactions online and the anthem-like beats and hook just make you want to ask "ey kamusta?".

Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer of Maya

"The customer response to our relaunch has been overwhelmingly positive, and our Early Access program was a smashing success. Maya's unique all-in-one money app, which seamlessly brings together digital banking services, crypto, and an e-wallet for the customer, clearly addresses the pent-up demand for world-class financial services" said Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer of Maya.

I actually had a lengthy chat with Pepe about my experience with the new app and I got to pry on some items that are in the pipeline. The energy and focus of the brand to make it easier for Filipinos to master their money just got me all excited with the future plans and so much more. 

Let me share with you some highlights during the event

PERSONAL GOALS

The Maya app allows you to save on a more easier way. Right now, the Savings features a 6% interest rate*. The Personal Goals allows you to set aside money for specific purposes, may it be a gadgets, for school or travel, here you can easily set aside what you'd be needing in the future. 

Set a savings goal, personalize it and set it up for up to six months and keep it around five at a time to allow you to see how your savings are going. Oh and yes, this still falls in the 6% interest rate. 

For the information of everyone, there used to be wallet only, and now they have Maya Savings. Customers with Maya Savings will automatically be upgraded as Maya Power Users, allowing them to cash in up to P500,000 to their Wallet and quickly transfer it to their Maya Savings account. Best of all, Maya customers can enjoy 99.9% app uptime reliability, enabling access to their savings anytime. No delays!

NEW CRYPTOS

While some of you were able to try the beta version feature of the new Maya app, new crypto coins will be added, plus new features this June!

Algorand, Ape Coin, Avalanche, Doge, and Stellar. Maya now offers 15 coins to help you diversify your portfolio. What makes Maya Crypto better is the seamless, integrated experience - no need to cash in/out or buy crypto using another app - it's an all-in-one experience with Maya.

USERNAMES

First in the market, you can soon set up your own @username that will serve as your Maya identity and let your friends easily send you money without using your mobile number or QR code. You will also enjoy all these awesome Maya features in dark mode!

DARK MODE

You'll never know you need it until you do. Maya will soon feature a dark mode in its app. So that got me excited! 

1M UP FOR GRABS

Taking control of your money gives you an exciting chance to win that 1Million and it's just hidden in a music video. The creative collab for the trending single was revealed last weekend through an easter egg hunt for P1,000,000 worth of cash prizes hidden in plain sight throughout the music video. All you need to do is watch the music video and look for the ten unique cash codes until June 9 for a chance to win prizes. Check out the Shanti X Maya Cash Code Hunt promo at www.maya.ph/shanti.

"Customers are connecting to our new brand's bold look, feel, and sound. This transformation would not have been possible without a world-class team of Filipino creatives who have brought our brand to life. The process reflects our culture and how we built Maya to be the first-of-its-kind money app for Filipinos," said Torres.

LOCAL CREATIVE COLLABS

According to Torres, Maya aims to build a brand that's as trailblazing as the app experience. The collab with Shanti Dope has paved the way for more co-creation with this generation's game-changers.

For example, Maya works hand-in-hand with sought-after photographer Shaira Luna to co-create Maya's photo library with a diverse range of talent that truly reflects the next generation of Filipinos. This creative approach will allow Maya to stand out in a saturated marketing landscape where it's not uncommon to see competing brands use the same stock photo models in their promotional materials.

It was actually a fun event, too bad I had to leave early. But it was nice to see familiar faces and got to chat with the Maya team. :)

Maya combines the power of an e-wallet with new features like crypto, credit, and an innovative digital banking experience powered by Maya Bank, to allow you to spend, save, grow, invest, and master your money — all in just one app.
