The rise of the cashless economy surged the prepaid card market in the Philippines in the last four to six quarters. According to the Q4 2021 Global Prepaid Card Survey, close to 38% of the consumers started using digital payment methods for the first time since the onset of Covid-19. Moreover, there have been efforts on the government’s side to drive the country towards a cashless economy.

Resultantly, the circulation of prepaid cards in the country also increased.
Fintech players are entering the flourishing prepaid card market in the Philippines
The Philippines has a massive unbanked population, with over two-thirds of the adult population – more than 50 million adults – without any bank account. This has invited leading fintech companies to enter the country with a focus on digital transformation as a strategic imperative.
- India-based payments solution company, Pine Labs, announced in December 2020 that the company would be expanding its product offerings to the overseas market, including the Philippines, in 2021.

Prepaid card providers are adopting QR Ph for the Filipino merchants
Prepaid card providers are taking initiatives to transform the cash-heavy economy into a cash-lite, following the footsteps of the Central bank of the Philippines.
- In April 2021, PayMaya, a digital wallet and prepaid card provider introduced QR Ph for its merchant partners.
- With the new payment scheme, enterprises will offer consumers a convenient digital payment option as the merchants can accept QR payments regardless of their customers’ bank or e-wallet accounts.

- PayMaya has rolled out the maximum number of QR Ph P2M acceptance points across its enterprise base. Notably, in November 2021, the company has more than 160,000 online and on-ground touchpoints, which include large companies, government agencies, as well MSMEs.
