Lalamove users can now top up their wallet with Maya

Booking your deliveries with the on-demand logistics platform, Lalamove, is now made more convenient and rewarding with the all-in-one money app Maya.

 

Lalamove users can enjoy a seamless and hassle-free way of adding funds to their Lalamove wallet with Maya. This option is on top of using their Maya virtual and physical Visa and MasterCard for Lalamove payments before booking their deliveries.

 

"Providing the best cashless experience to Filipinos is our goal, and this includes being able to easily and securely add funds in their Lalamove wallet with their Maya account. We're happy to work with Lalamove in bringing this added convenience to customers," said Maya Head for Enterprise Business and Sales Mar Lazaro.

 

For her part, Dannah Majarocon, Managing Director of Lalamove Philippines, said: "We continue our goal of promoting safe contactless deliveries through digital payments. Including Maya as a payment option will bring cashless convenience to more Filipinos, allowing consumers to maximize Lalamove's fast, reliable, and affordable services." 

 

With this new initiative, topping up the Lalamove wallet with Maya is simple. Lalamove wallet users just need to:

·       Open the Lalamove app and tap the hamburger button on the upper left corner of the home page.

·       Choose Wallet. 

·       Tap the "+Top Up" button and select the amount you wish to add to your Lalamove Wallet.

·       Proceed by tapping the Top Up button, choose the Credit or Debit card, and the Maya button.

·       Choose "PayMaya wallet," then log in your Maya account details.

·       Enter the OTP sent to your mobile number and proceed with your top-up transaction.

 

To make top-ups in the Lalamove wallet with Maya more rewarding for users, upgraded Maya users who will add at least P500 to their Lalamove wallet from May 3 to June 30, 2022, will automatically enjoy a P50 discount coupon code from Lalamove and P50 cashback credits from Maya.

Maya is the all-in-one money platform bringing Filipinos bolder ways to master their money. It is powered by a unique integrated financial services ecosystem that addresses the ever-evolving needs of today's generation of money makers through cutting-edge technology.  

 

Maya leads millions of Filipinos — consumers, businesses, communities, and government agencies alike — into a version of the current digital economy that's more inclusive, transparent, and empowering than ever. Maya is powered by the country's only end-to-end digital payments company, PayMaya Philippines, and Maya Bank for digital banking services.

 

Launched in the Philippines in late 2016, Lalamove is an on-demand logistics company that matches drivers with customers and SME businesses to fulfill same-day deliveries. Lalamove’s mission of making local deliveries faster and simpler across North, Central, and South Luzon, and in Cebu is achieved through innovations such as instant order matching, real-time GPS vehicle tracking, 24/7 services, and a driver rating system. Lalamove allows these businesses to scale their deliveries and operations at an accelerated rate. Lalamove now operates in over 30 markets across Asia and Latin America.

Mastercard’s Index for Women Entrepreneurs (MIWE) examined women’s progress in the global entrepreneurship landscape

 

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic having a disproportionate impact on women entrepreneurs across the world – especially those in the developing economies – women are demonstrating the resilience to succeed against the odds, according to a recent Mastercard study. Women in the Philippines have fared particularly well in making entrepreneurial progress, despite significant social-cultural and infrastructural barriers threatening to impede their growth. Lack of government SME support, poor access to entrepreneurial finances, and a severe lack of education opportunities remain the major constraints to advancing women’s entrepreneurship in the Philippines and Asia’s lower-middle-income economies overall.

Encompassing 65 economies and 82.4% of the global female labor force, the fifth edition of Mastercard’s Index for Women Entrepreneurs (MIWE) examined women’s progress in the global entrepreneurship landscape over the last two years. The findings reveal that despite worldwide efforts to mitigate the pandemic's effects, women have experienced considerable economic and social implications. As a result, the expected time to overcome the worldwide gender gap may be extended by another 36 years.[1]



MIWE’s latest report has also revealed an encouraging trend for women’s entrepreneurship in Southeast Asian economies such as the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam. Women in these economies were seen engaging in high levels of entrepreneurship, sometimes at parity with men, even though the environment in which they operate remains entrenched with challenges. Despite the comparatively lower participation of women in the workforce, the Philippines remained a global leader for the third consecutive year when it comes to women’s advancement outcomes and are just as driven by opportunity as women in highly business conducive environments.

Three Shopee interns shared what being an intern for Shopee is like

As the e-commerce industry continues to grow, so does the need for tech talent that can help support the industry’s growth. Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, recognizes this need and aims to help develop young professionals to produce future industry leaders through its internship program.

Shopee’s internship program is a 3 to 5 month program that introduces eligible undergraduates to the e-commerce industry and immerses them into the fast-paced sector. Shopee interns are provided with opportunities to get firsthand experience working on nation-wide projects and campaigns, as they collaborate with their teammates and supervisors. Shopee also provides resources and training for interns to grow and learn during this period. This includes weekly Learning & Organizational Development classes, opportunities to shadow their supervisors, and integration in employee engagement events.

Karen Perez, Shopee Philippines Head of People, said “Shopee will continue to cultivate talent with its vibrant and collaborative working environment. Life at Shopee is about making sure that everyone has the best opportunities presented to them, and that they learn and upskill themselves with real-world training.”

Three Shopee interns shared what being an intern for Shopee is like.

A unique internship program

Alli, an intern under Shopee’s marketing team, shared that one of the defining characteristics of a Shopee internship is how interns are given the opportunity to directly contribute to the content produced by the team. “At Shopee, we’re trusted as if we are full time employees. My supervisors give me opportunities to take on big tasks. It truly is a unique experience in that we are given hands-on work where you’re really involved in the entire process—from brainstorming to the actual execution of the projects. You get to pitch your own ideas, make decisions, and maximize your own potential.”

A welcoming and collaborative culture

Mika, an intern working with the People team, really liked the culture at Shopee, where she and her fellow interns felt like they were part of the Shopee Family. “Even when I was still a new intern, I already felt as if I had been here for quite some time. It’s very easy to get along with everyone here, and to get my message across even during meetings, especially because Shopee’s team guides you every step of the way. Even if we’re just interns, we’re also empowered to speak our minds and contribute ideas.”

An engaging learning experience

Meanwhile Jewel, an intern for Shopee’s Marketing team, said that he was able to hone his skills through the opportunities Shopee provides. “I’m always given the chance to learn through the tasks that I’m given, and I'm able to do my best and overcome any challenges thanks to the guidance of my team. I’ve picked up new skills here—for example, I’m able to write better and manage my time well. My supervisors ensure I have all the tools and resources I need to do my best. They’ll teach you everything you need to know, and even then there’s still so much to learn from Shopee.”
