Maris Racal makes everything Mini

 

Maris Racal wants more, more, more—and she’s making it Mini!

 

The actress turns up the pop-star energy in Maya Black’s latest music video, serving edgy looks and her signature confidence against a catchy hyperpop track. But there’s a twist: everything she wants literally turns into a miniature version of itself, bringing the song’s “make it mini” message to life in a fun and unexpected way.

 

Maris Racal makes everything Mini

With its fashion-forward styling, chrome accents, and Maris in full pop-star mode, the music video gives Maya Black and Mini Payments a fresh, music-driven treatment.

 

And while everything might be getting smaller on screen, the idea behind it is all about having more flexibility when it comes to bigger purchases. Because with Mini Payments, getting what you want doesn't always have to mean paying for it all at once.

 

Watch the new music video starring Maris Racal here: https://youtu.be/b_zKjZ6u2f4?si=q8AzbC9iUSLp0sAV.

 

Big purchase? Make it Mini!

With Mini Payments, eligible purchases made using your Maya Black Credit Card  can be converted into 3, 6, 9, or 12 monthly payments, giving cardholders more flexibility in managing bigger expenses.

 

Whether you're planning a gadget upgrade, buying a new appliance, or making another bigger-ticket purchase, simply select an eligible transaction, choose your preferred payment term, and track your plan directly in the Maya app, subject to applicable terms and charges.

 

So while Maris makes everything Mini in the music video, you can also bring that same energy with your bigger purchases. Big purchase? No biggie. Make it Mini with Maya Black and Mini Payments.

Maya cardholders can enjoy both the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card and Maya Black Credit Card

 For cardholders who already enjoy earning cashback on everyday spending, getting another credit card shouldn’t mean giving up the rewards they already love. With Maya Credit Cards, you don’t have to stick to just one.

Eligible Maya cardholders can now enjoy both the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card and the Maya Black Credit Card under one total credit limit. With a shared limit across both cards, cardholders can choose which one to use depending on the rewards they want to earn—whether that’s cashback they can use toward free groceries at Landers, or Maya Miles they can redeem for travel and lifestyle rewards.

Two Maya Credit Cards, one shared credit limit

Having a shared limit means your available credit is shared across both cards. Instead of having a separate credit limit for each one, you have one total credit limit that you can use whichever card you choose.

Purchases made on either card are deducted from the same total available credit. So having a second card doesn’t mean having another credit limit. It simply gives you more choice in how you use the credit already available to you, and how you want your spending to reward you.

Earn Cashback and Maya Miles

That choice comes down to what you want to get out of your spending.

With the Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card, you can earn 5% cashback at Landers Superstore, 2% cashback on dining, and 1% cashback on most other transactions. Your accumulated cashback can then be used toward purchases at Landers, turning the rewards you earn into free groceries.

Meanwhile, the Maya Black Credit Card lets you earn up to 10x Maya Miles at Maya Black Preferred Merchants. Maya Miles can be redeemed for travel and lifestyle rewards, giving your everyday spending something different to work toward.

Both cards can reward the spending you already do, just in different ways. Depending on what matters to you, you can choose to earn toward your next grocery run or build up Maya Miles for the travel and lifestyle rewards you want to enjoy.

Manage both credit cards in one place

Having more than one credit card doesn’t have to mean making your finances harder to manage.

Cardholders can manage their Maya Credit Cards in the Maya app, where they can track spending per card and see how much of their shared credit limit is still available.

Each card also has its own Statement of Account, so cardholders can clearly see their transactions and amount due for each card, making it easier to stay on top of spending and payments.

This way, you get the flexibility of having multiple cards while still having a clear view of how much credit you have available and where your spending is going.

More choice, without the extra complexity

What you want from your credit card rewards can change along with your priorities. You might want to turn the cashback you earn into free groceries at Landers, or earn Maya Miles you can redeem for travel and lifestyle rewards.

With a shared limit across Maya Credit Cards, eligible cardholders can choose the rewards that matter to them—giving them the best of both, all within one total credit limit.

Experience First-Ever Live Scoring at Miss Universe Philippines 2026 with Maya

 For the first time in Philippine pageant history, the crown won’t be decided by judges alone. This year, Filipinos get to take the judge’s seat.

 

Powered by Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines and Official Voting Partner of Miss Universe Philippines (MUPh) 2026, coronation night transforms into a fully interactive experience—where fans can score candidates live, in real time, alongside the Selection Committee.

 

From Viewer to Judge: A Major, Major Shift

MUPh raises the stakes by giving fans a more meaningful role during the most anticipated night of the competition.

 

Through Maya’s live scoring feature, audiences can evaluate candidates as they compete across key segments—from swimsuit to evening gown to Q&A. Every walk. Every answer. Every moment. Now comes with a score—from you.

 

How It Works: Your Front-Row Seat to Judging

Joining the live scoring experience is simple and seamless through the Maya app:

• Step 1: Through the MUPh tile in the Maya app, purchase a Premium Pass, and review the instructions and scoring guide.

• Step 2: During the coronation night, enter the active competition round (e.g., Swimsuit, Evening Gown, Q&A) and review the candidates

• Step 3: Score each candidate based on your evaluation (from 1 to 10) and review your scores after each round

 

From confidence and stage presence to overall impact and suitability to the round, fans can judge using guided criteria—making the experience both fun and meaningful.

 

 

More Than Just Voting—A Voice That Counts

Beyond live scoring, fans can continue to support their favorite queens throughout the competition by getting FREE votes every day or buying more votes for your MUPh bets. 

 

With Maya powering this innovation, pageantry evolves into something more dynamic—where fan support doesn’t just live in comments or conversations, but becomes part of the journey itself.

 

Because on coronation night, when everything is on the line, one thing becomes clear: The universe isn’t just watching. The universe is judging.

 

U vote. U decide. U crown. For free. U vote with Maya.

Miss Universe Philippines 2026 Launches Game-Changing Daily Free Fan Voting with Maya

 

Miss Universe Philippines (MUPh) 2026 raises the bar with the launch of its first-ever daily free fan voting experience powered by Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines and Official Voting Partner of MUPh 2026.

Through the Maya app, pageant fans can conveniently cast votes for their favorite candidates and receive free votes every day, allowing them to consistently show support throughout the competition. This makes fan participation more accessible and rewarding, enabling more Filipinos to actively take part in the journey to the crown.

For the first time ever, fans will also be able to participate in live voting during the coronation night. This marks a significant step forward in making the Miss Universe Philippines experience more interactive, secure, and inclusive.

 

A More Inclusive Miss Universe Philippines Experience

At the heart of this initiative is greater accessibility and participation. Through this collaboration, pageant fans nationwide can easily engage in the competition via public voting and real-time judging moments.

Fans can support their favorite MUPh candidates directly through the Maya app. By upgrading their Maya account, users can unlock access to free daily votes — making it easier to stay engaged and play a more active role in shaping the outcome of the pageant.

 

Step Into the Judge’s Seat
Public voting through the Maya app will be open for a limited period ahead of coronation night, with the full voting timeline to be announced on the official Miss Universe Philippines social media accounts.

As part of this initiative, public votes submitted through the Maya platform will be integrated into the overall selection process, alongside expert evaluation, leading up to the announcement of semifinalists on coronation night.

In this way, both expert insight and public participation help shape the final results. Rather than simply watching from afar, Filipinos can now take part in a shared moment of pride, representation, and excitement.

Be Part of History

As Miss Universe Philippines continues to evolve, this partnership with Maya signals a future where beauty, leadership, and representation are shaped not only by experts, but by the Filipino people themselves.

With credibility, accessibility, and public participation at its core, the journey to the crown becomes a truly shared experience.

Savings That Slap: Julia Barretto & Maris Racal Show How Saving Feels Better with Maya

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgljNn07qI4]

 

A ‘Sampal’ You’ll Actually Want Every Day

Instead of progress you only notice months later, Maya Savings makes growth immediate. With interest credited daily, your money doesn’t just sit there, it moves consistently and visibly.

 

That’s the real sampal. Not the painful kind, but the moment you realize your balance is growing day after day. Saving stops feeling passive and starts feeling rewarding, because something is actually happening.

 

Saving That Hits Different

Julia and Maris show that saving doesn’t have to feel heavy, complicated, or purely long-term. It can be fun, rewarding, and culturally familiar, the kind of saving that slaps, literally and figuratively.

 

With Maya Savings, users can earn up to 15% interest per annum, credited daily. That daily payout turns saving from something you wait on into something you feel, as your balance grows every day just by using Maya for your everyday transactions.

 

Once saving feels rewarding, it’s easier to keep going.  And for today’s savers, waiting for “someday” isn’t motivating anymore. They want results they can see — and feel — today.

Philippine Cocktail Week Presented by Maya Black Takes Over Manila

Philippine Cocktail Week (PHCW), presented by Maya Black, has unveiled its full international lineup, confirming the largest and most globally awarded gathering of cocktail bars ever hosted in the Philippines. 

From February 5 to 8, 2026, the city will welcome an unprecedented collaboration between 28 of the world’s most celebrated cocktail bars and 28 of Manila’s finest local bars, unfolding across four nights and four neighborhoods.

Unlike traditional cocktail festivals that center on a single venue or temporary showcase, Philippine Cocktail Week is conceived as a citywide experience, unfolding deliberately through BGC; Legazpi Village and Makati Cinema Square; Poblacion and Jupiter; and Quezon City and San Juan. 

 

“This is the first time Manila has welcomed this depth and caliber of international bar talent in a single week, working alongside local bars as collaborators,” said a representative from Philippine Cocktail Week. “Philippine Cocktail Week reflects a new chapter in Filipino hospitality—one where the city opens its doors with confidence, generosity, and a strong sense of identity.”

 

One-night-Only Collaborations, Citywide

Across four nights, internationally acclaimed bars step into Manila working alongside local bars, creating menus and experiences that exist for one night only. Each pairing is designed as an exchange where global perspective meets Filipino hospitality on equal footing, within bars that already define the city’s nightlife.

 

The international lineup brings together some of the most respected names in the global scene, many consistently recognized by The World’s 50 Best Bars and Asia’s 50 Best Bars. Among them are COA (Hong Kong), Vesper (Bangkok), Bar Us (Bangkok), Zest (Seoul), Virtù (Tokyo), Hope & Sesame (Guangzhou), and Dry Wave Cocktail Studio (Bangkok)—representing decades of collective recognition and influence.

 

Further details, including international–local bar pairings and guest bartenders, are available via @philippinecocktailweek on Instagram.

An Elevated Way to Experience Philippine Cocktail Week

With Maya Black onboard, Philippine Cocktail Week becomes an experience worth remembering. Cardholders can enjoy 20% cashback at all participating bars, alongside exclusive perks and seamless payments.

 

“We created Maya Black to give our customers experiences that feel personal, elevated, and worth remembering,” said Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer of Maya. “Philippine Cocktail Week reflects the best of modern Filipino hospitality, and we’re proud to support an event that positions Manila confidently on the global stage.”

 

Philippine Cocktail Week is supported by Grab as Supporting Presenter, together with participating spirits and beverage partners including Arc Archipelago, Benchmark, Buffalo Trace, Código, Don Julio Blanco, Don Papa Rum, Flor de Caña, Giffard, Glenfiddich, Hendrick’s, Highland Park, Jameson, Johnnie Walker Black Ruby, La Herencia, Luisita Rum, Martell, Monkey Shoulder, Nikka, No. 3 Gin, Ron Zacapa 23, Sazerac Rye, and Singha.

Tap and Go: Link Your Maya Credit Card to Google Pay in Seconds

 Filipinos practically run their entire lives on their phones — checking group chats, booking rides, and juggling a dozen errands in between. But even with everything going digital, paying with your phone can still slow you down – especially with QR codes. Scanning with your phone, waiting for SMS confirmation, or having cashiers take screenshots and double-check a QR payment? Suddenly, your quick stop turns into a waiting game.

Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, is changing that. As one of the first banks in the country to enable Google Pay for credit cards, Maya is putting next-generation payments directly in your hands. Yup, Android users can now tap and go by simply adding their Maya Credit Card to Google Wallet. Even better? Tap to Pay via the Maya app is coming soon, making paying faster and easier than ever.

 

Why Tap to Pay Just Makes Sense 

Life moves fast—commuting, grabbing coffee, running errands between meetings. And through all of that, your phone is always in your hand. So, it only makes sense for paying to keep up.

 

It’s no wonder most prefer tapping with their credit cards. It’s quick, convenient, and comes with rewards. But there’s an even faster way to pay: Tapping with your phone. With Maya on Google Pay, your phone becomes your wallet. No digging through your bag, no fumbling for a card—just one motion and you’re done. Plus, you still get the rewards you love:

 

• Instant Maya Miles with your Maya Black Credit Card, and

• Cashback with your Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card.

 

An Easier & More Effortless Way to Pay

Paying with your Maya Credit Card on Google Pay is instant and incredibly smooth:

• Add your Maya Credit Card to the Google Wallet app

• Unlock your phone, open Google Wallet, and tap at any NFC-enabled terminal

• Pay anywhere Visa or Mastercard contactless is accepted globally

 

No extra steps. No friction. Just fast, secure, tap-and-go payments — whether you’re buying coffee, catching a ride, or checking out at your favorite stores.

 

Perks That Make Tapping Even Better

To celebrate this new way to pay, Maya and Visa are giving your PickUp Coffee run an upgrade. Tap to Pay with your Maya Credit Card via Google Pay and you get ₱50 off on your drink—yes, just for tapping. Your caffeine fix, now with tap-exclusive perks.

 

With this feature now available, you can finally ditch the unnecessary steps and go straight to the part that matters—tapping, earning, and getting on with your day. Paying shouldn’t slow your down, and now it won’t.
