“The bar for exceptional customer experience has been raised more than ever before, and businesses must stay innovative and go beyond expectations to stay competitive,” said Go Rewards CEO Cindy Deng. “Through this powerful collaboration with UnionBank, we have developed a unique all-in-one credit card and loyalty program that enhances and elevates your shopping experience.”

Designed to increase customer benefits in the Go Rewards network, cardholders can use the points to redeem freebies such as flight tickets and other offers from Go Rewards partners. If you plan to use your points, one point will equal P1 in all of the 2,000 Robinsons and Robinsons Retail stores nationwide.

“We are grateful for Unionbank’s shared commitment to delivering exceptional value and unparalleled consumer benefits.” Lisa Gokongwei Cheng, Chairman of Data Analytics Ventures, Inc. shared. “We’re also excited on behalf of all our shoppers, who will no doubt be enjoying the rewards from their loyalty.”

Customers can apply for either the Go Rewards Gold Credit Card by UnionBank or the Go Rewards Platinum Credit by UnionBank. The Gold and Platinum both come with Go Rewards Points welcome gifts—3,000 points for Gold and 5,000 for Platinum—as well as an automatic upgrade to black membership status. This means that cardholders will be able to access exclusive black member lanes in select stores and priority access to retail sales. Platinum cardholders will also receive free airport lounge access and travel insurance.

The Gold and Platinum credit cards aren’t the only collaborations between Go Rewards and UnionBank. The two also launched the Cebu Pacific credit card and Go Rewards debit card prior to the Visa launch.
