The launch was attended by Paolo Azzola, COO PayMaya Philippines, Evelyn Lim, VP Operations SM Store Visayas 1, and Erich Lim, Branch Manager SM Store Visayas 1.
The SM Store in SM City Cebu and SM Seaside Cebu customers can use their PayMaya app to pay. All they have to do is tap the “Scan” button, and point their phones at the special QR codes displayed at The SM Store’s Mobile Pay lanes to complete their transactions. PayMaya's cashless system is available since last December in all branches of The SM Store nationwide.
PayMaya is offering an introductory promo. Shoppers can get a 10% rebate (up to P100 per branch per day) on their purchases whenever they pay using PayMaya QR at Cebu branches of The SM Store from January 15 to April 15, 2018. For every P1,000 spend, shoppers also get the chance to win one out of ten iPhone X units.
“We are happy to have a new way to make shopping more convenient for our shoppers,” said The SM Store President Chelo C. Monasterio. “The retail landscape is changing, and The SM Store is proud to lead the way with partners like PayMaya.”
“More and more Filipinos are using cashless payments with PayMaya, and we're excited to work with like-minded companies such as SM in innovating on the retail shopping experience with the help of our payment technologies. With companies like SM taking the lead, we’ll see PayMaya QR in a lot more stores and establishments all around the country,” said Manuel V. Pangilinan, Chairman at PLDT, Smart, Voyager, and PayMaya.
Easy payments, top-ups at The SM Store
Getting a PayMaya account is easy. All they have to do is download the PayMaya app on the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. Register for an account using any mobile number from a Philippine mobile network, load up their account in any of the more than 15,000 PayMaya load-up touchpoints nationwide and use the “Scan” QR feature within the app to instantly pay for their purchases.
The SM Store and PayMaya step up their collaboration to improve the customer experience of shoppers, particularly in the three The SM Store branches in Cebu City, Consolacion, and Seaside in Cebu, through PayMaya QR. Leading the launch in time for the Sinulog Festival were (from left) Avelita Ybanez, AVP for Controllership, SM Store Visayas 1&2; Inmaculada Velasquez, Assistant Branch Manager, SM Store Seaside; Doreen Mendoza, Assistant Branch Manager, SM Store Consolacion; Erich Lim, Branch Manager, SM Store Visayas 1; Paolo Azzola, COO and Managing Director, PayMaya Philippines; Evelyn Lim, Vice President of Operations, SM Store Visayas 1; Janerel Gayon, Marketing Supervisor, SM Store Cebu & Seaside; and Gilbert Manego, Assistant Branch Manager, SM Store Cebu.
Paying with PayMaya is also made more convenient with load-up options at all SM Business Services inside The SM Store. Account holders can also load up their PayMaya accounts at 7-Eleven, ExpressPay, TouchPay kiosks, Palawan Pawnshops, Shopwise, Wellcome, 2Go outlets, Petron stations along NLEX, and Smart Padala centers, as well as through Unionbank ATMs and RCBC retail online banking.
"SM has been an early partner of PayMaya as a load-up center for our customers, as well as a valued partner of our Smart Padala remittance service. This is a natural progression of our collaboration as we make it easier for our customers to use their PayMaya accounts anywhere they are in the country. We thank our partners like SM for helping accelerate cashless adoption among consumers," said Orlando B. Vea, President and CEO at PayMaya Philippines.
