The new product targets frequent flyers by offering a 1:1 conversion rate for airline mileage programmes and a 1.5% foreign exchange fee for international transactions.
Furthermore, cardholders are provided with unlimited access to airport lounges globally, alongside travel insurance coverage of up to PHP 20 million.
For added financial flexibility, users can convert their purchases into payment terms of up to 36 monthly instalments using the RCBC Pulz application.
The card’s release is the result of a partnership between the Philippine bank and the global payments network Visa.
