Tech-savvy digital Filipinos now more than ever embrace the digital lifestyle, accomplishing their daily tasks, juggling work and fun, and engaging others through online platforms, especially with extended indoor living restricting face-to-face activities and transactions.
But how can people get the best out of life in this digital lifestyle?
It was all fun and games until famous TikTok personality, voice talent and ASMR podcaster Inka Magnaye officially challenged the one and only TikTokers’ virtual boyfriend and content creator Jae Miranda to a fun duel to settle once and for all who can do more daily life activities through GCash and Alipay+ rewards using #alipayplusrewards and #KayaMoGCashMo.
Inka and Jae shared tips and perks with the public as they showed multiple ways of maximizing Alipay+ Rewards to enrich and add value to the digital life of Filipinos, in particular the young, as Alipay+ Rewards brings global brands directly to them. Alipay+ Rewards is a new feature in GCash, a mini app that enables users to enjoy daily deals, discounts and mega prizes.
So, who won the challenge?
Endless Plus
“As a sweet friend I sent you some food, Inka, and I got some discounts in GCash through the Alipay+ Rewards,” Jae proudly shared his first entry for the challenge. To top off his entries, he purchased the Zalora eVoucher, saving him 3 percent off the voucher price.
Inka and Jae said it themselves! Users can enjoy vouchers at exciting discounts only at the Alipay+ Store. Booking for food deliveries and online shopping is made more rewarding through exclusive Food Panda, Zalora vouchers and more.
Plus, users are eligible for free load vouchers valid for all networks.
Exclusive Deals
From August 6 (today) until August 8, GCash users can grab their favorite vouchers of up to Php100 for only Php1 at Alipay+ Rewards’ 1 Peso deals. They can enjoy vouchers from brands such as SM Store, Puregold and Google Play.
“If you play Mobile Legends, I can send you gaming credits,” said Inka as she teased Jae in one of her posts.
Alipay+ Rewards also has weekly featured deals where in-game vouchers can be purchased with discounts and free Goama tickets are waiting to be claimed.
Mega Prizes
Like Jae, aside from enjoying voucher purchases at the Alipay+ Rewards Store, Inka was able to cross off most items on her to-do-list for the challenge via GCash while inviting viewers to be safe and experience the mini app themselves: “Stay at home and stay safe, go get what you need using GCash and Alipay+ Rewards.”
Users can visit the roulette of rewards until August 8 for a chance to win Mega Raffle prizes such as an iPhone 12, an iPad Air and more than 1 million worth of vouchers when they activate Alipay+ Rewards in their GCash wallets.
Ultimately, Jae mentioned in his final video that he and Inka both managed to find easier ways to accomplish their errands digitally, resulting in both winning the challenge in a five-for-five tie.
“Everything (digital activities done) was so easy. Especially now that we’re in ECQ, we need to be safer. We need to stay at home, so as much as possible if we can do it on online, if we can do it in GCash, then why not?” Jae’s final remarks as he encouraged his followers to prioritize their health and safety.
Beyond creating buzz online and whichever between Team Jae and Team Inka got more fan support, these TikTok stars stirred the convo on why Filipinos should adopt a more digitally inclined lifestyle nowadays not just to cope with the times but to thrive in this high-tech era and survive the pandemic.
Still on TikTok, everyone is invited to join actress and singer Maymay Entrata and do the #APlus88dance challenge at home for a chance to win awesome prizes.
