More than just an e-wallet: Maya offers everything you’d look for in a bank and more

PayMaya was well-known for its convenient e-wallet features. But upon its recent relaunch last April, it now offers users an all-in-one money app experience – allowing you to complete all your financial transactions in just one app.

From being an e-wallet, Maya is now powered by BSP-licensed Maya Bank which allows the app to offer you more financial services to help you save, spend, grow, and master your money.

Whether you want to invest in crypto, save with one of the highest interest rates in the market at 6%, enjoy a credit line of up to P15,000, or simply use your wallet for your purchases – your Maya app is your trusted partner for all things money.
