To date, over 40 McDonald’s branches nationwide have already begun accepting card payments for all types of Mastercard and Visa credit, debit and prepaid cards. This also includes PayMaya cards and Smart Mastercard.

The McCafe BGC Arts Center and McCafe Tagaytay Calamba stores will also be accepting PayMaya QR payments soon,  with more branches to follow in the coming months. Customers can pay with their smartphones by opening the PayMaya app, and scanning the QR code in the cashier area. Online payments and bookings for McCelebrations Birthday Parties and McDelivery will also be available very soon.

Convenient card and QR payments

“Our goal is to continuously provide our customers with a convenient and feel-good restaurant experience, which is why we are committed in seeking out innovations that can deliver this to them. Through our partnership with PayMaya, our customers will now have a cashless payment option to make ordering their favorite McDonald’s meals more convenient.” – Mr. Kenneth S. Yang, McDonald’s President and CEO.

“This is digital technology at its most convenient, and we are working toward enabling more partners like McDonald’s to further build a cashless ecosystem all around the country. We’re starting with McDonald’s today, but we envision a future where most of our transactions will be carried out with the help of a PayMaya account.”

It’s very easy to get a PayMaya account. All one has to do is download the app or start a chat with @PayMayaOfficial in FB Messenger.  Loading up is also hassle-free, with over 15,000 top-up facilities nationwide, including Robinsons Department Store Business Centers, SM Business Services, Cebuana Lhuillier, ExpressPay, TouchPay kiosks, 7-Eleven, ExpressPay, Palawan Pawnshops, Shopwise, Wellcome, 2Go outlets, Petron stations along NLEX, and Smart Padala centers down to Sari-Sari stores in grassroots communities, and Unionbank ATMs.

Together, we take one bold step with them in creating a cashless Philippines, which we see happening in the very near future.” – Orlando B. Vea, President and CEO at PayMaya Philippines.
