Mother’s Day Made Easier: Thoughtful Ways to Spoil Mom with Metrobank Deals

Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be extravagant to feel meaningful. More often than not, it's the smallest acts that create the biggest impact. 

If you’re still planning how to celebrate, Metrobank has curated a few simple ways to make the day feel special for the moms in your life, with added perks when you use any Metrobank credit card. 

Start with something she’ll keep  
A well-chosen gift can say a lot, especially when it’s something she can return to every day. Jewelry remains a timeless option—not for its price, but for its meaning.

  

At Esotico Jewelry, you can enjoy 30% off on plain gold items with a minimum spend of PHP5,000, making it easier to find a piece she’ll treasure for years. 

Whether it’s something simple or a bit more statement-making, the thought behind it is what she’ll remember.

  

Give her a moment to unwind  
Sometimes, the best gift is simply the chance to slow down—something many moms rarely get. Treat her to a quick skin retreat at VMV Skin-Specialist Boutiques and enjoy 15% off on products and services.

  

For a more memorable experience, consider doing something unique together, like a perfume-making session at The Scent Studio, where you can enjoy 30% off their workshop and 10% off home fragrances with a minimum single-receipt in-store spend of PHP650. It’s less about the activity and more about the time spent creating something together.

  

Upgrade her home  
For many moms, the things they use daily matter just as much as special-occasion gifts.  

A small upgrade at home can make routines feel lighter and more enjoyable. Get her new kitchen essentials from Ninja Kitchen and take advantage of a 20% discount on select appliances, including their popular Dual Zone Airfryers. These items sound too practical, but it's the kind of gift that becomes an essential part of her everyday. 

Keep the classics  
Some gestures remain timeless for a reason. Flowers, for one, never go out of style.  

Whether it’s a simple bouquet or something more elaborate, FlowerStore.ph offers 25% off plus free shipping on Mother’s Day when you use your Metrobank credit card and the app code MBANKMOM. Potico.ph also offers 30% off for any item on their online shop when you use the code MBANKPMOM. It’s an easy way to add a thoughtful touch to the day, especially when paired with a handwritten note.  

Celebrate every kind of mom  
Motherhood looks different for everyone, and so does the way we celebrate it.

  

For new moms navigating a new routine, seasoned moms refreshing their newborn essentials, or any mom in need of a curated selection of parent-tested essentials, consider gifting items from Edamama, which offers 10% off in-store or PHP500 off online for first-time users (code: METROMAMA2026). It’s a small but helpful way to support this new chapter—practical, thoughtful, and grounded in what she actually needs.  

Keep it simple, keep it meaningful  
At its core, Mother’s Day isn’t about doing more—it’s about being present. A thoughtful gift, a shared experience, or even just uninterrupted time together can mean more than any grand plan.  

With a curated range of offers, Metrobank credit cardholders can focus less on the details and more on what truly matters: making Mom feel appreciated.

For those planning something a little extra, bundle meals, cakes, and even fresh flowers are also available, with a Fresh Flower Sale on pandamart running from May 9 to 11, making it easy to surprise mom with something special at home.

For added convenience, pick-up options are available for those on the go. With the code PICKUP, PRO users can enjoy 10% off while skipping the lines and bringing home mom’s favorites faster. To make celebrations even more rewarding, cashback vouchers are also available from May 8 to 10, with ₱150 cashback for non-PRO users using the code MAMA and ₱300 cashback for PRO users with PROMAMA, both with varying minimum spend requirements.

PRO subscribers can also enjoy added value with delivery perks across categories, including unlimited free delivery capped at ₱49 for food orders, no delivery fee on pandamart with a minimum spend starting at ₱599, and up to ₱69 off delivery fees on select shop orders, making it easier to plan a complete Mother’s Day surprise.

Whether it is a simple meal, a small surprise, or a complete spread for the family, these options make it easier to show up with something meaningful this Mother’s Day, turning “kahit ano” into something she will truly enjoy.

AirAsia Philippines surprised and delighted 500 flying moms with flowers and skin care kits

AirAsia Philippines surprised and delighted 500 flying moms with flowers and skin care kits during the two-day Mother’s Day event over the weekend. 

Guest moms at the check-in counters of NAIA Terminals 3 and 4 were greeted by the Allstar cabin crew and handed AirAsia’s special Mother’s Day gifts to make their journey more memorable. 

“At AirAsia, we honor and celebrate all moms and motherly figures in our lives. As a company that brings families together, we understand how important it is to recognize the extraordinary role that mothers play in our lives.” AirAsia Philippines Communications and Public Affairs Country Head Steve Dailisan shares.

“We want to extend a special thank you to all the mothers who travel with us and entrust us with the safety and well-being of their families. Their unconditional love, unwavering patience, and incredible strength continue to motivate us to soar to greater heights,” Dailisan added. 

In the same manner, the World’s Best Low-Cost Airline also released on social media a heartfelt Mother Day’s video featuring Allstar employees and stories of their mother’s sacrifice.  The video is AirAsia’s tribute to all the hardworking moms who selflessly raised their children despite all odds.

Both activities were part of AirAsia Philippines’ Corporate Sustainability and Social Responsibility (CSSR) Community Support and Learn, Share & Inspire pillars.  As part of the month-long Mother’s Day celebration, AirAsia Philippines will hold its 2nd PA-TALK session, an internal talk series, that will feature strong, resilient mothers who continue to drive better inclusion in the workplace while managing to balance their careers and family affairs simultaneously.

PLDT Home delves into the reality of co-parenting in a new video released in celebration of Mother’s Day

Raising a child is no easy feat. What more can be challenging for couples when their relationship issues get in the way of parenting?  

 

Whether in a solo or co-parenting situation, moms would naturally take the huge responsibility in ensuring their child’s welfare. They are innately independent, strong and reliable. But when it comes to raising a child, the strongest moms know that they need a reliable support system to make things work. 

 

PLDT Home delves into the reality of co-parenting in a new video released in celebration of Mother’s Day. 

Featuring popular Filipino actors and real-life couple Jerald Napoles and Kim Molina, the heartwarming video narrates the story of two separated parents navigating the challenges of caring for a new baby. Molina's character, Michelle, juggles motherhood with her high-powered professional responsibilities at work, while the father, Jigo, played by Napoles, does his best to assist despite their strained relationship. 

 

Throughout the video, Jigo demonstrates a genuine willingness to learn and adapt, potentially opening the possibility for a healthy co-parenting arrangement of their family. The story emphasizes the importance of helping and supporting mothers, especially for co-parents, as they can always benefit from someone they can rely on.

 

Through this special Mother's Day story, which honors hardworking mothers and mother figures, PLDT Home reaffirms its longstanding commitment to promoting safe spaces and fostering stronger connections within the family at home.

Surprising Tidbits from GrabAds’ First Mother’s Day Shopper Insights

Mother’s Day is celebrated in over 50 countries all over the world, but no two markets are completely alike in the way they celebrate moms. This year, GrabAds - the advertising unit of Southeast Asia’s leading superapp, Grab - conducted a survey with consumers in Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines to find how they are planning to celebrate their mums for the coming Mother’s Day. By analysing the survey findings alongside past GrabFood and GrabMart transaction trends for the Mother’s Day period over the past year, this has revealed surprising tidbits that could be useful in helping you find the perfect gift that warms the heart, and palate, of your beloved mom.

Here’s what we found:

1.     Mother’s Day shopping, now via superapps - 79% of surveyed consumers in the Philippines plan to buy Mother’s Day gifts this year, with an overwhelming majority (89%) intending to purchase their gifts via apps like Grab this time round¹.

 

2.     Making last-minute dashes for food and gifts on the superapp – Surprisingly, Mother’s Day emerged as the day with the highest user traffic on the Grab app in the Philippines last year. In fact, more consumers use the Grab app on Mother’s Day than on Christmas Day, the second-highest day in terms of user traffic for the entire 2021².

 

3.     Consumers are more generous when they shop for moms – Consumers in the Philippines are more willing to spend more on Mother’s Day, forking out an average of +40% more money per order on GrabFood and making +30% more GrabFood orders than the average day for Mother’s Day¹.

 

4.     Flowers, sweet treats among the most popular Mother’s Day gifts – While it is expected that flowers will continue to be a perennial favourite for Mother’s Day, Grab saw a 4X increase in deliveries for cakes during Mother’s Day last year, showing that consumers in the Philippines also love to pamper their mums with sweet treats².

 

5.     International cuisine, pizza and pork-based dishes saw a surge in orders – If you’re wondering what consumers in the Philippines like to order for their mums on Mother’s Day, this may give you some insight. International cuisine and pizza saw a surge in orders on GrabFood by 2X, while pork-based dishes experienced an increase in volume of orders by 1.5X on Mother’s Day last year².

 

“When it comes to e-commerce shopping days, many brands are excited about days like 11.11 and 12.12, but sometimes miss out on traditional shopping days like Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Since the pandemic has trained consumers in the Philippines to shop on their phones, we anticipate that online-to-offline superapps will play a much bigger role in shaping the shopper behaviours for the coming Mother’s Day. This is where a superapp like Grab is positioned to capture some of these shifts in behaviours, to help brands and consumers meet their needs for a great Mother’s Day celebration,” said Ken Mandel, Regional Managing Director and Head of GrabAds and Brand Insights.

 

Established in 2018, GrabAds is an integrated advertising solutions provider which provides advertisers with multiple channels, such as in-app advertising, branding and product sampling via the Grab ecosystem, for building awareness, engaging audiences and triggering action across the Grab platform. Through its advertising and technology capabilities, GrabAds aims to help people discover, engage, and connect with the best businesses in Southeast Asia. For more information, visit GrabAds For Business.

Celebrations and Gifting Made Easy with Red Ribbon’s Online Store & ReGALO services

Heroes are meant to be celebrated, and there’s no person more deserving of this recognition than our mothers. They have made sure that the whole family is safe and healthy during the pandemic, which is not an easy feat considering that motherhood in this time requires a lot more patience, resilience, and hard work. Thanks to her ceaseless love and sacrifice, mom manages to pull through and ensures that everyone is well looked out and cared for amidst these tough times.

 

Thus, this Mother’s Day, “I’m proud of you, Mom!” is perhaps one of the less spoken but most relevant messages that your mom deserves to hear. There's nothing more special in expressing it than with one of Red Ribbon's delectably beautiful cakes. To complement your special cake gift, here are some ideas for your mom’s special day.

 

1. Cook for her

Moms usually do all the cooking at home, so let her take a break and make her favorite ulam for Mother’s Day. End the feast with a luscious Black Forest Cake, a chocolate fudge cake covered in fluffy cream and chocolate shavings, and topped with Maraschino cherries.

 

2. Write a heartfelt letter

Whether it’s handwritten or posted on social media, letters never go out of style. Make the gift sweeter by adding a Yema Caramel chiffon cake, made with creamy yema caramel icing and filling, and garnished with toasted cashew nuts.

 

3. Spend the day watching K-dramas

Let mom sit back and join her in binge-watching K-dramas while enjoying a slice of the new Mango Sunrise cake. It’s made from soft chiffon cake layered and topped with mango cream and mango chunks, perfect for enjoying her happy pill shows.

 

4. Go online window shopping

Treat mom to gifts that she’s always wanted—be it clothes or small trinkets that make her look & feel ever-blooming. While doing so, gift her an Ube Bloom Cake, made with real ube halaya and filling, and coated with white frosting and ube crumble.

 

5. Prepare an afternoon pampering session

Let her relax and take that much deserved break while listening to her favorite music at home, sipping her favorite drink and enjoying it with Red Ribbon’s all-new Ube Mousse, made with layers of ube halaya, cream cheese and topped with cream and grated cheese.
