MANILA, Philippines — RCBC, through RCBC Credit Cards, recently sealed a partnership with World Travel Expo (WTE) 2023.

Now on its seventh year, WTE will go regional for the first time and will be held in five provincial cities (SMX Clark, SMX Bacolod, Ayala Center Cebu, SMX Davao and KCC Mall Zamboanga), culminating at the World Trade Center in Pasay City in November.
RCBC Credit Cards has securely placed its full support and trust (as co-presenter) in the WTE event to assure its credit cardholders of worry-free travel arrangements and provide them an easy way to avail of attractive vacation, shopping and staycation offers.
During the contract signing, Arniel Vincent Ong, president and CEO of RCBC Bankard Services Corp., relayed, “We have noticed that travel spend is back and many of our cardholders are again traveling. With this, we would like to offer our cardholders the best travel deals so they can maximize the use of their RCBC credit cards.”
“Through our partnership with WTE, our cardholders will gain access to the event ahead of the general public and thus, be able to get the best deals ahead of everybody else. They can also gain free entrance to the event and get deals/offers that are exclusive to the RCBC Credit Cards,” he added.
What sets RCBC Credit Card from other credit card issuers?
“Specific to travel, RCBC premium credit cardholders get unlimited free access at the Marhaba Lounge in T3, plus one companion, and free Priority Pass membership to enable them to access airport lounges around the world,” he replied.
“While non-premium cardholders, on the other hand, can access the lounge and waive the fee if they use the cards abroad. RCBC cardholders can also get free travel insurance of up to P5 million, as long as they use their credit cards to purchase airline tickets.
Lastly, the RCBC credit card is the only credit card that enables customers to convert their purchases abroad at 0% interest for three months, digitally, thru the RCBC Digital app.’’
Summer is here and more Filipinos are keen on taking advantage of opportunities to enjoy their travels in the coming months.

“We encourage travelers to take advantage of the various travel benefits that are available through their credit cards. For RCBC credit cards, we have credit card products that provide superior rewards when the card is used for overseas purchases.
