Two major teams have come together to
become a game-changer in the Philippines’ credit card landscape.
Maybank today further strengthened its
partnership with Manchester United with the launch of the first international
sports franchise co-branded credit card in the Philippines—the Maybank - Manchester
United Credit Card powered by Visa.
Maybank and Manchester United rolled out
their first co-branded credit card in 2011 in Malaysia.
With the launch of this new credit card,
Filipino fans of Manchester United—one of the Premiere League’s elite
teams—will be able to enjoy exclusive privileges and discounts.
Like their neighbours in Malaysia and
Singapore, Maybank - Manchester United Credit Cardholders from the Philippines will
enjoy 5x TreatsPoints every time the Manchester United Team wins a Premiere
League Match and 10x TreatsPoints when they shop at the Manchester United
Megastore Online at 10% discount.
Manchester United fanatics can also
avail a 10% discount when they dine at the Red Cafe in Old Trafford Stadium and
a 20% discount when they go on a tour in the Manchester United museum and
stadium.
“We made the Maybank – Manchester United
Credit Card ideal for active and sports-oriented Filipinos as we have partnered
with various sports retail stores, fitness centers and sports bars where they
can enjoy discounts which is on top of the region-wide privileges offered by
Maybank – Manchester United Credit Card” said Maybank Philippines, Inc.
Vice-President and Cards Head Eden Leah V. Estrella.
“We are delighted not only to have
extended, but also expanded our relationship with Maybank across Malaysia,
Singapore and the Philippines. The Club has almost 22 million followers, all of
who can now take advantage of all of the great products and services Maybank
has to offer,” said Manchester United Group Managing Director, Richard Arnold.
“We have had tremendous success with
five dual branded financial products available across Malaysia and Singapore
and our fans have been able to experience unique Manchester United prizes and
experiences. Collaborating with Maybank is helping us achieve our ultimate goal
of engaging with Manchester United fans on a global scale,” Mr. Arnold further
said.
