GCredit Empowers Moms and Dads to Do More

January 13, 2019 / Filed Under: mobile app, Technology

An intimate gathering between GCash and parent bloggers happened last November 23 to talk about the one thing that matters to them – parenthood. Parenthood – the highs and lows – and how they manage to make the best out of it all. GCash’s GCredit was there to help parents along in their journey of providing the best for their family.

GCredit is your easy to access credit line within the GCash App which can be used as another payment source for your purchases. It functions like a flexible loan or credit card by letting you have a set limit of money you can avail anytime you want – perfect for times of emergencies or for when you need a little extra on hand.

Fast and Convenient

Parents can appreciate how easy and convenient it is to use GCredit. GCredit can be used to pay for your utility bills, your groceries, school supplies, and is accepted in some of our GCash partner merchants. And since your GCredit is linked to your GScore (the first trust score in the country), as you continue to use GCash services and transact with higher amounts, your GScore will increase. A higher GScore means access to higher GCredit limits. This allows you to provide more for your family without compromise.

Easy Payments

Paying GCredit is also easy on the pocket, so this makes budgeting easier for parents. The interest rate is set at 5% for a maximum of 30 days prorated. This means that if you pay back the amount you used in less than 30 days, you have lower interest charges. This comes very handy especially for those with strict or limited budgets.

Life Partner

GCredit is here to help make this journey of parenthood easier – by giving you the ease and comfort of doing secure, cashless transactions without having to worry about paying back credit with high interest rates. By having GCredit by your side, you are now more ready for life’s surprises and are free to spend more time with what matters most – family.

#MyStarKidAdventure with Twinkle and Star Margarine App

September 28, 2018 / Filed Under: mobile app, Technology

My memories involving Star Margarine includes lots of hot pandesal made more delicious with the spread and a sprinkling of sugar on top and Star Rice, made of freshly cooked rice made more nutritious and tasty with a tablespoon of Star Margarine.

I’m very happy that these days, Star Margarine is not only a part of the breakfast table but also encourages our children to read and have fun through their new interactive Star Margarine App. Since kids these days love watching and playing with their parents’ tablets or phone, the Star Margarine App would be very inviting for them to read and see themselves as a dinosaur.

Twinkle loves dinosaurs and that’s because she loves Peppa Pig and Peppa’s brother, George, loves dinosaur. She actually calls ’em “”dinagow” because she’s still bulol. She always lights up when she sees anything dinosaur. She was so happy when I showed her this…

… the adventure of Twinkle the Dinosaur and Friends.

The App is so easy to use. It’ll just ask you to sign up and after signing up, it will open into a page where you can Dino-fy your kid and yourself by uploading a photo. Then, the adventure begins….

You can even choose which adventure to go next…

Mommies, I’m sure you and your kid will have the time of your life reading and going on an adventure with the Star Margarine App. Try it and see for yourselves. Just visit https://starmargarine.com/login.

April 10, 2018 / Filed Under: mobile app, Technology

I have been a fan of the Starbucks Card ever since it was launched in 2013. peanutbutter♥ and I use it whenever we have short coffee dates at Starbucks or whenever the family goes out for coffee. Ykaie now likes coffee, aside from her regular Frappuccino order.

What I love about the Starbucks Card, aside from the design and being convenient to use is that you can also earn stars and get rewards when you use it.

Now, Starbucks Philippines have upped their game with the launch of the new Starbucks PH App which you can download to your phone. It’s a mobile app providing a fast and convenient payment method for customers at more than 300 stores across the market.

Why Download the Starbucks PH App on your phone?

Aside from personalized offers and messages, you can also:

Pay for your order – A feature called “Shake to Pay” allows customers to shake their phones to bring up a barcode within the app that can be scanned to pay and redeem. The app is linked to their My Starbucks Rewards account so balances are automatically updated whenever the app is used.
Earn Stars and track them. Know your progress towards your next free bev!
Add a new Starbucks card.

Check out their menu, featured beverage and food items of the season.
The Starbucks PH App also helps Starbucks lovers enjoy their favorite beverages anytime, anywhere with its store locator feature. Here, they can be directed to the nearest store along with a list of other recommendations in the vicinity as they search by store name, Starbucks Reserve^® store, drive-thru store, or stores open at the moment.

I’ve already downloaded it on my phone and I’m loving all its features. My stars and my favorite Starbucks goodies are now just a click away.
