Smarter School Year Starts Here: How to Make Budgeting Easier with Maya

 Every parent knows the drill: a new school year means a fresh wave of expenses—uniforms, tuition, supplies, baon, gadgets. And somehow, you’re expected to cover all of it without blowing the monthly budget.

This year, take the pressure off. Maya, the #1 Digital Bank app in the Philippines, is helping parents power through back-to-school season with smart, stress-free money moves that protect your wallet and your peace of mind.

Stretch your budget and win big when you shop for school

School expenses can stack up fast, but with Maya Easy Credit, you get instant access to up to P30,000 in revolving credit, right inside your Maya app. Whether it’s for baon, uniforms, or last-minute school supplies, you’ve got extra budget ready when you need it.

And here’s the best part: your back-to-school spending can earn you big rewards. Every time you use Maya, you get a chance to win cash prizes. Get 5 raffle entries for every P500 spent via QR with Maya Easy Credit, and 1 raffle entry for every P250 spent using your Maya Wallet. Weekly winners can take home up to P15,000, while two lucky users will score P100,000 each month. The more you spend, the more chances you have to win, just by taking care of school essentials.

 

Approval for Maya Easy Credit is subject to credit evaluation. Users must be 21 to 65 years old to apply.

 

Savings that actually grow while you focus on the day-to-day

Maya Savings lets you earn up to 15% interest per annum, paid out daily, just by simply using Maya for all your transactions. No lock-in, no complex paperwork, just real growth from your real spending.

You can even set up Personal Goals and allocate funds for upcoming tuition fees, field trips, or allowance. Each goal earns 4% per annum, so your money keeps working while you get everything else done.

Base interest starts at 3.5% per annum. 15% interest per annum applies to your first P100,000 deposit balance. 

Already spending for school essentials? Make every peso count.

Whether you're picking up notebooks, new kicks, or stocking up on baon essentials, Maya makes sure your everyday spending works harder for your family. Use the Maya Black Credit Card to rack up  Maya Miles (soon convertible to airline miles—hello, future family trips!) or go with the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card and get up to 5% cashback on must-haves supplies like groceries.

It’s not about spending more. It’s about being rewarded for what you’re already doing, and making your budget stretch even further.

Less Mental Load, More Control

With Maya, you manage it all from one app: savings, payments, credit, banking. Pay bills, transfer money, and track spending in real-time without bouncing between platforms.

Simplifying your financial life means more time and energy for the things that matter. With Maya, you’re not just keeping up—you’re getting ahead. Start the school year strong. Save, spend, and stay in control with Maya. Download the app and explore tools designed to work around your real-life budget.

Still Chasing Your Financial Goals? Maya’s Here to Keep You Moving

 Let’s be honest — you probably started the year with all the best intentions. Maybe you even made a money mood board, listed your financial goals, promised yourself this was the year you’d finally save.

Then life happened. Expenses showed up uninvited, those online sales were way too good, and suddenly, savings? Still pending.

But here’s your mid-year reality check: it’s not too late. Maya, the #1 Digital Bank app in the Philippines, is here to help you reset, refocus, and make real progress with your money goals (without making things boring or overwhelming).

Save in a way that actually works

With Maya Savings, you can earn up to 15% interest p.a. — no complicated terms, no hidden steps. Just deposit your money, use Maya for all your transactions, and watch your money grow with interest earnings credited daily. Even if you start small, that’s already progress!

Save with purpose, not pressure

Want to build that travel fund? Prep for an upcoming concert? Or just feel more in control? Maya lets you create up to 5 Personal Goals inside the app where you can earn up to 4% interest p.a. It’s goal-setting made simple, so you can stay on track without the stress.

Unlock Hidden Perks for Freelancers—Exclusively in the Maya App

 Let’s be real: freelancing looks like freedom, but behind the curated schedules and café-hopping gigs lies a truth every gig worker knows—one accident, one delay, one missed opportunity can throw your whole month off balance. No gigs, no income, no backup.

Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, gets it. That’s why it’s making it easier than ever for freelancers to enjoy perks usually reserved for the 9-to-5 crowd. We're talking high-yield savings, instant access to credit, seamless payments, and now, insurance coverage built for your lifestyle.

With Maya Savings, you can earn up to 15% interest per annum just by letting your money sit smart. Got an emergency? Maya Easy Credit gives you instant access to up to ₱30,000 right inside the app. And if you’re looking to spend smarter, Maya also offers credit cards built for your lifestyle: the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card gives you up to 5% cashback at Landers Superstores, 2% on dining, and 1% on most everyday spends, while the Maya Black Credit Card lets you earn Maya Miles on every swipe—use it to shop, dine, or soon fly wherever your hustle takes you. 

And because life doesn’t always go as planned, Maya now gives you access to Singlife’s Cash for Income Loss (Accidents), a straightforward insurance plan you can get for as low as ₱1,196/year, with cash benefits of up to ₱50,000 per month for 36 months if an accident puts you out of work. No fine print, no long forms, just real financial support when you need it most. The best part? You can purchase it directly through the Maya app, along with other Singlife plans like Cash for Goals, Cash for Medical Costs, and the 3-in-1 Protection Plan.

Here’s your sign: When you purchase any of these Singlife plans in Maya until the end of June, you get ₱500 cashback. It's coverage with benefits, just the way freelancers like it.

Speaking of perks, if you’re transferring your freelance earnings from PayPal, make sure you’re doing it through Maya. With a minimum transfer of ₱7,000, you’ll get ₱250 cashback.

Whether you're recovering from a curveball or gearing up for your next big win, Maya’s got your back. From protection to perks, this is how freelance life should feel—empowered, supported, and paid in full.

Maya Launches Visa Cross-Border AFT to Boost Payment Flexibility for Tourists, Expats, OFWs, and Freelancers

 Visa, a world leader in digital payments, and Maya, the Philippines’ leading digital bank and fintech ecosystem, are collaborating to enable cross-border account funding transactions (AFT) in the Maya app. This innovative partnership allows Maya users to seamlessly pull funds from foreign-issued Visa cards and load them directly into their Maya accounts, expanding payments flexibility.
