We all love getting more out of our travel spending, especially when it comes with extra rewards. So why settle for just traveling when you can get more along the way? With your Security Bank credit card, you can see the world while enjoying exclusive rewards. 

Here’s how to do girl math, the Security Bank way on your next trip!

​

Join the Swipe, Fly, Earn Promo

If you’re going to book flights, hotels, or transportation anyway, you might as well get something extra out of it. Security Bank’s Swipe, Fly, and Earn Promo lets you earn electronic gift certificates (eGCs) worth up to ₱10,000 just by using your Security Bank credit card on travel-related transactions. That means your bookings are working for you. Smart, right?

To qualify, your purchases must fall under these eligible categories:

Basically, every time you swipe your Security Bank credit card for flights, hotels, or car rentals, you’re investing in future rewards. Girl Math.

However, not all transactions are eligible. These are the excluded categories:

To prove how easily you could get reward, let’s say you’re planning a trip to South Korea for 7 days with 4 people. Here’s a sample of what you’d typically spend on qualified transactions using a Security Bank Platinum Mastercard:

Since you’ve hit ₱300,000, Congratulations! You are now qualified for a ₱6,000 eGC! 

If you’re using a Gold Mastercard and spend ₱200,000, you’ll get a ₱4,000 eGC. If you’re using a World Mastercard and spend ₱300,000, you’ll get ₱10,000 eGC—all just from booking your dream South Korea trip.

Earn Points While You Spend

The best part? Every ₱20 you spend earns you BetterBanking Rewards points depending on your card type:

• Gold Mastercard: Earn 1 point per ₱20 spent
• Platinum Mastercard: Earn 2 points per ₱20 spent
• World Mastercard: Earn 3 points per ₱20 spent

That means the more you swipe, the more rewards you rack up! And these points are as good as money because you can redeem them for airline miles, eGCs, shopping vouchers, and more.
