 Pay seamlessly abroad with your GCash Visa Card, featuring real-time forex updates and spend tracking via the GCash app

Hassle-free travel: Payments abroad made easier with GCash Visa Card

With the GCash Visa Card, users can view low and transparent forex rates upfront and track international spending in real time within the GCash app for a seamless travel experience

Recognizing that Filipino travelers are more mindful of their spending, the GCash Visa Card is a reliable way to manage travel funds, whether for essential business or a long-awaited family trip. Filipinos can conveniently pay for purchases abroad using the GCash Visa Card, providing a secure and transparent way to ensure every peso is spent wisely while away from home.

The GCash Visa card offers users transparency, real-time tracking, and universal accessibility across the globe, making it a preferred mode of payment when going overseas.

In fact, GCash Visa Card transactions made abroad accounted for 74% of total GCash Visa payment volume in 2025, a figure that shows the leadership of GCash in international payments. 

Here are a few reasons why the GCash Visa Card is the best way to transact globally: 

l  Available in more than 150 million merchants worldwide:  The GCash Visa Card offers unparalleled global utility, accepted at over 150 million merchants across more than 200 countries and territories. Whether transacting in-store or online, users are guaranteed a seamless and highly accessible payment experience that bridges the gap between local digital wallets and global commerce.

l  Low & transparent forex rates: One of the key considerations for users spending abroad is understanding the true cost of each transaction, with exchange rates varying across providers. To address this, the GCash Visa Card enables users to view competitive foreign exchange rates directly within the GCash app. This feature allows cardholders to see exactly how their GCash wallet balance converts into foreign currency in real-time. By providing this upfront visibility, GCash eliminates the uncertainty of fluctuating rates, ensuring a hassle-free spending experience. Users can manage their travel budget with total confidence.

l  Real-time spend tracking: Beyond visibility on rates, managing expenses in real time is equally important for travelers and overseas users. Traditional payment experiences often rely on end-of-cycle billing, which can make it harder to track day-to-day spending until after the fact. With the GCash Visa Card, transactions are reflected in real time within the app, allowing users to monitor their spending as it happens. This immediate feedback loop helps users stay aligned with their intended budgets and reduces the likelihood of unexpected charges accumulating unnoticed during travel or overseas use.

l  Withdraw from ATMs abroad: Accessibility also plays a central role in supporting users abroad. Through Visa’s global network, the GCash Visa Card enables users to withdraw cash from ATMs across different countries. This broad acceptance gives users flexibility in how they access and use their funds. 

“Travel should be about creating meaningful experiences, not worrying about how to pay abroad. With the GCash Visa Card, travelers can enjoy a more convenient and seamless payment experience wherever Visa is accepted, while having the confidence that their transactions are secure and protected every step of the way,” said Ren-ren Reyes Jr., president and CEO of GCash operator G-Xchange Inc.

As more Filipinos engage in cross-border travel and global digital transactions, the expectations around financial tools continue to evolve toward greater transparency and ease of use. 

Through features that bring together upfront foreign exchange visibility, real-time spend tracking, and global acceptance, GCash supports users in navigating international spending with more confidence and control, helping make cross-border payments feel simpler and more predictable.

The new edition of Florante at Laura modernizes the classic text yet carefully preserves its historical and linguistic character. With annotations, glossaries, discussion guides, and illustrations by Rowin Agarao, the new version is both a literary resource and an important educational tool for contemporary learners.

Also given a special highlight is the newest collection of Mga Kuwento ni Lola Basyang, as masterfully retold by award-winning writer Christine S. Bellen-Ang, and brought vividly to life by an esteemed roster of Filipino illustrators. Inspired by the iconic stories of Severino Reyes, the collection reintroduces today’s young readers to narratives that have helmed generations through imagination, morality, wonder, and cultural memory. 

“These stories have long occupied a cherished place in Filipino childhood,” shares Segundo D. Matias Jr., Founder of Lampara Books and Precious Pages Corporation. “Through these new editions, we hope to preserve their legacy while allowing a new generation of readers to discover the beauty, wisdom, and humanity found within Filipino storytelling traditions.”

In line with its mission to promote literacy and holistic learning, Lampara Books also launches several educational series that address current learning needs and social development of children. This includes the Decodable Comics for Fluency series in Filipino and English, which integrate Systematics Phonics and the Marungko Approach to reinforce foundational reading skills for beginners.

Written by Daisy Jane Calado, coordinated by Victor A. Villanueva, and illustrated by Rowin Agarao, the series combines engaging storytelling with workbook-based exercises that support comprehension and language development.

Also included in the launch is the Kids Have Rights! Series by Michellan Sarile-Alagao (illustrated by Kim Santiago), which introduces children to their fundamental rights through accessible language and relatable narratives. The Sari-Sari Books series by Genaro R. Gojo Cruz, illustrated by Domz Agsaway, celebrates diversity, inclusivity, and self-expression, empowering a new generation of readers to appreciate individuality and social understanding.

Lampara Books also expands its educational offerings with the inclusion of Disaster Ready-Kids Series by Zarah C. Gagatiga and illustrated by Juno Abreu, which introduces the concept of practical safety measures and disaster preparedness to children. Kaligtasan Para sa mga Bata by Mark Norman Boquiren (illustrated by Mark Norman Boquiren), on the other hand, promotes public safety awareness among young Filipinos.

With Lampara Books’ latest roster for the Heritage Month, reading is not just a tool to preserve culture and tradition. It is a strong foundation for education, imagination, and nation-building to prepare the next generation with the right mindset and heart to become better individuals.

The Marikina-based trio delivers a no-skips album driven by blues-infused rock ’n’ roll and working-class struggles

Filipino blues rock trio AME has officially released Kwentong Barbero, a seven-track album that tackles the unfiltered realities of everyday Filipino life. As one of the few active blues bands in the local music scene, AME takes the genre to a thrilling new place through its riveting balance of classic blues sound, ‘70s psychedelic rock, and contemporary punk edge.

Redefining OPM with their eclectic sound and personality, Kwentong Barbero delivers a record wity easygoing charm and confidence. The retro-modern album features previously released singles “Ipagpatawad Mo,” “Hala Bira,” and “Palaboy,” alongside four new tracks ready to hit hard and stay with the listeners until the final note.

[MORE PHOTOS HERE]

From the urban grit of “BluKolar” to the poignant farewell in “Langit,” the record paints vibrant stories of love, survival, identity, and hope into anthems that cut across generations. “BluKolar,” in particular, connects the album to broader themes of labor, migration, and resilience, grounding AME’s music in the everyday struggles and aspirations of Filipino communities. 

Tracks like “Sana Makapili” stands out for its reflective patriotism, while heartfelt stompers like “Sandal” reveals the band’s vulnerable side both as songwriters and performers. The result is a well-rounded, no-skips album that balances emotional depth with the glorious raggedness of rock n’ roll.

Musically, AME’s new record serves as both a homage to the timeless tradition of Filipino storytelling and the trio’s infectiously gritty approach to blues-infused rock music.

Tracklist

1. Sana Makapili
2. Palaboy
3. Ipagpatawad Mo
4. BluKolar
5. Sandal
6. Hala Bira
7. Langit

AME’s debut album, Kwentong Barbero is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via evosound Philippines.

About AME

AME is an indie-alternative rock blues band from Marikina known for their genre-bending sound that fuses nostalgic rock influences with modern pop sensibilities and emotionally charged lyricism. Since emerging in 2019, the band has steadily built a growing following through music that balances youthful energy with introspective storytelling — from the infectious groove of Ipagpatawad Mo to the heartfelt collaboration Balang Araw with Frank Ely, and now their upcoming album, Kwentong Barbero.

Blending driving guitars, soulful vocals, and blues-rooted instrumentation, AME delivers a sound that feels both fresh and familiar within the local indie scene. Their songs often explore themes of love, identity, struggle, and hope, capturing the rawness of youth alongside the emotional weight of lived experience. As one of the few active bands carrying blues influences into modern OPM, AME continues to carve out a distinct space in Filipino music — proving themselves to be one of the most promising acts shaping the next wave of local rock and blues.

Now available on all digital music platforms worldwide, the 8-track release unfolds like a single emotional journey: carefully sequenced, richly detailed, and impossible to skip.

Manila, Philippines – Following the radiant charm of their critically acclaimed debut DEFINITELY LOVE!, ALYSON returns to the spotlight with AFTER OURS—a sonically ambitious sophomore album released via Offshore Music Philippines. 

ALYSON’s second full-length album lingers in the aftermath of a romantic connection, exploring uncertainty after intimacy, the temptation that complicates devotion, and the painful realization that love endures not through perfection but through choice. Embracing a more sophisticated approach to songwriting and production, AFTER OURS treats the art of listening to albums as a sanctimonious experience, with each track carefully sequenced and every detail presented with intentionality at every level. 

In an era increasingly dominated by algorithmic design and standalone singles, ALYSON wants listeners to rediscover the beauty of experiencing albums as complete bodies of work that are meant to be lived through in sequence, with no skips. The record feels like one long night stretching into dawn.

Here’s a track-by-track description:

1. IKAW LAGI

Opening the record with festive beats and magnetic arrangements, “IKAW LAGI” is described as a “summery, ‘80s Latin-disco anthem” where the feelings of attraction and love are amplified to the max by its inescapable energy. The dancefloor-ready track captures the excitement of attraction at the beginning of a night out: where possibility is endless and every glance feels electrifying.

2. LANDI

A nighttime 80’s dancefloor track that takes listeners deeper into the long night, the song transports you to the set of the 1987 film, Dirty Dancing. It brings back the physicality and intimacy introduced in the previous album, showing two people unexpectedly synchronized to the beat amidst the chaos of the dance floor, getting closer, skin to skin, almost to a sensual breaking point.

3. BIGHANI

Exploring the connection between city pop and Brazilian tropical rhythms, the track marks the emotional escalation of the album. Beneath its shimmering production lies an internal conflict: temptation can drive a person crazy after a wonderful night, leading them to question their outlook on loyalty and love.

4. KUNG SAKALING TANAWIN

Delivering the record’s grandest emotional statements, the track gloriously channels the Manila Sound ballads from the ‘70s and ‘80s with sweeping orchestral arrangements ala Basil Valdez and Rey Valera. Drunk with nostalgia and yearning, the track meditates on the painful beauty of memory, asking whether love would still be chosen if one already knew how complicated and fragile everything would become.

5. TALAGA 

A playful synth-pop track inspired by both Pinoy and Japanese pop sensibilities circa 1986, the track chronicles a lover’s quarrel filled with teasing tension and undeniable chemistry. 

The release of the song is accompanied by a music video that pays tribute to the late-night music television performances of the ’80s and ‘90s (e.g., Ryan Ryan Musikahan). It also features rising pop artist Paprikka, who is known for her charismatic singing and soulful delivery.

6. GOODBYE, SUMMER

Integrating big band jazz, Motown grooves, city pop, and crooner-style Manila Sound into one cohesive package, “GOODBYE, SUMMER” is considered one of the album’s technical highlights. The groovy tune captures the exhaustion of heartbreak while confronting the lingering pain that still shadows it.

7. 24/7 LOVE & CARE

Handpicked as the album’s focus track, the song embodies the accessibility and warmth that define ALYSON in their sincerest form. Featuring a simpler arrangement centered largely around the band’s five core members, the track represents clarity after emotional turbulence: a realization that despite temptation, confusion, and imperfection, there remains comfort and peace in enduring love.

8. ‘DI MAKAPANIWALA

Sitting at the intersection of Japanese City Pop and Manila Sound, “‘DI MAKAPANIWALA” is an earnest closing track meant to cap off the emotional complexities of a night that was. It’s a simple message of hopefulness for a love that can make it to the dawn. Credits roll.

ALYSON’s AFTER OURS is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide this May 22, 2026, via Offshore Music Philippines. Watch the music video of “TALAGA”, debuting on YouTube tonight 9PM.

Payment solutions provider VeritasPay Philippines Inc. is scaling up its nationwide presence as it accelerates support for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) adapting to an increasingly digital economy.

From an initial focus on Metro Manila and the broader Mega Manila area in 2021, the company has since expanded its reach to serve merchants across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, reflecting the growing demand for accessible and reliable digital payment infrastructure beyond urban centers.

Today, VeritasPay supports a growing base of merchants nationwide, offering businesses a unified platform to accept multiple payment methods, including credit and debit cards, QR code payments, and other digital channels.

“At the point of sale, speed and reliability are critical to customer experience,” Christopher James Payne, President and CEO of VeritasPay said, underscoring the role of seamless transactions in driving both customer satisfaction and business performance.

Unified payments platform

VeritasPay enables merchants to accept payments across various touchpoints from physical point-of-sale (POS) terminals and mobile devices to online checkout pages and banking channels, through a single provider. This integrated approach simplifies operations for businesses managing multiple sales environments or branch locations, eliminating the need to work with separate payment providers and enabling more consistent transaction processing.

“At VeritasPay, we remain committed to empowering businesses by delivering accessible, reliable, and innovative payment solutions that drive growth and long-term success,” said VeritasPay General Manager and Business Development Head, Carl Henrison Tienzo.

To support businesses at different stages of growth, VeritasPay structures its offerings into two core solution categories.  Its In-Store suite, which comprises OnePOS, MobilePOS, and ExpressPOS, caters to day-to-day transactions at physical locations, offering merchants flexible options based on their setup and scale. Complementing this is its Online suite, which includes EasyLink, Checkout, Online Banking andOver-the-Counter, enabling businesses to accept payments remotely and expand into digital channels without overhauling their existing systems. Together, these solutions allow merchants to add new sales channels while operating within a single, unified payment ecosystem.

Growth targets for the year

Building on its nationwide footprint, VeritasPay said it now serves merchants across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, delivering technology-driven payment solutions across the country. The company is targeting a 30–40% increase in its merchant base this year, alongside a 45% rise in processed transaction volume, supported by continued investments in internal capabilities and strategic partnerships. With its expanding footprint and integrated solutions, VeritasPay aims to play a larger role in enabling SMEs across the Philippines to scale their operations and meet evolving consumer expectations.

Enhanced visibility for businesses

As SMEs expand, transaction visibility and operational oversight become increasingly important. VeritasPay provides centralized reporting tools that allow merchants to monitor sales, review payment activity, and track transactions by terminal, payment type, or location.

Such capabilities help business owners and managers identify trends, address discrepancies, and make data-driven decisions, particularly for enterprises operating across multiple branches.

Consistent customer experience

The shift toward digital payments has also heightened expectations for consistency. VeritasPay’s platform supports uniform payment acceptance across locations and channels, helping businesses deliver a seamless checkout experience whether transactions occur in-store, online, or remotely. This consistency reduces friction for customers while standardizing processes for frontline staff.

For more information, businesses may explore VeritasPay’s suite of payment solutions designed to support both in-store and online transactions.

There are moments when you need a little extra funds, fast. Not because something went wrong, but because things don’t always line up perfectly: bills overlap, expenses come in early, or your sweldo hasn’t landed yet. It happens.

That’s exactly where Maya Easy Credit from Maya, the country’s #1 Digital Bank and leading all-in-one fintech platform, comes in.

Now with a higher limit of up to ₱50,000, Maya Easy Credit gives you quick access to extra funds when timing is off. Whether it’s covering overlapping bills, handling an expense before your next payout, or simply giving yourself more breathing room, it’s built to help you move through those moments—without overcomplicating things.

Because the reality is, many traditional options are designed for bigger, long-term commitments, often more than what’s needed for a short-term gap.

With Maya Easy Credit, there’s no need to lock yourself into something long-term. No need to overcommit. It works as a revolving credit line: use only what you need, repay within 30 days, and pay a service fee (starting at 3.99%) based only on the amount you actually use. Simple, clear, and manageable.

And honestly, this shift has been a long time coming. For years, credit carried a stigma. It felt like something to avoid, something you turned to only when things went wrong. But everyday financial life doesn’t really work that way anymore.

These days, it’s less about major emergencies and more about timing. Your gastos don’t always match your sweldo, and more often than not, the challenge isn’t whether you can afford something, it’s whether you have the funds right now.

That’s why credit is starting to feel different. Not a last resort, but a practical tool. Something you can use when it makes sense: short-term, flexible, and easy to manage, just enough to keep things moving.

And because Maya Easy Credit is built into the same app you already use for payments and savings, it’s seamless. From checking your available credit to repayment, everything can be managed directly in the app; no paperwork, no collateral, no extra steps, just access when you need it.

Having that option changes the way you approach your money. Because what’s really changing isn’t just how people use credit, it’s how it fits into everyday life. It’s not just something you turn to when things go wrong. It’s becoming part of how people handle the in-between.

And sometimes, that’s all it takes—just a little extra to keep things moving.
