Purchasing made easier

Just in time for the final holiday rush, EastWest cardholders can conveniently pay for their transactions with Google Pay.

Google Pay is now available in the Philippines for compatible Android and Wear OS devices, and EastWest is one of the first local banks to support it. Cardholders can add their EastWest Visa or Mastercard credit card to Google Wallet and start paying without ever reaching for their physical card.

With Google Pay, EastWest customers can simply unlock their phone and tap it on the contactless terminal.

For online transactions, Google Pay eliminates the need to enter long card numbers or security codes.

If commuting, like taking the MRT-3, tap to pay is also accessible.

By enabling Google Pay for its credit cards, EastWest continues its shift toward easier, modern, and mobile-friendly banking. More card products, including select debit cards, are expected to follow as Google Pay adoption grows in the country, the bank said.
