Maya, the leading digital bank app in the Philippines, has announced its exciting partnership with two illustrious Hollywood actors: Dolly De Leon and Liza Soberano. This collaboration not only reinforces Maya’s commitment to challenging conventional banking norms but also highlights its dedication to innovation through a captivating short film featuring the dynamic duo.
Following the success of last year’s collaboration with Soberano, Maya takes its ambition a step further by introducing De Leon, a renowned Filipina actor with a global fan base. The collaboration showcases the spirit of defiance and optimism, urging Filipinos to break free from limitations and embrace new possibilities in an increasingly digital era.
“The past year has been quite a journey and I’d like to thank Maya especially for believing in me and my dreams. I personally love using my Maya card to pay, whether I’m traveling for work or leisure. It’s just hassle-free and accepted anywhere,” Soberano said during Maya’s event in BGC earlier today.
Since the inception of their creative partnership in 2023, Maya has been a steadfast supporter of Soberano’s remarkable journey. Having recently starred in her debut Hollywood film, “Lisa Frankenstein,” alongside Kathryn Newton and Cole Sprouse, the Filipina actress has garnered praise from critics worldwide. While shining on the global stage, Maya empowers her with a sleek black Maya card, facilitating seamless payment transactions during her travels to California and other international destinations.
As the latest endorser of Maya, De Leon adds depth and undeniable charm to the campaign. Recognized for her award-winning performances, De Leon has become an influential figure in the local and international film community. Managing a hectic schedule that takes her to various film locations, the international Filipina actress embraces change by banking with Maya.
“I use Maya because I hate going to a bank branch, especially with my busy schedule, to fill out forms for a simple transaction when I can do all of that on my phone. And just like Liza, I use my Maya card to pay for everything, especially when I’m traveling to various places for work. It really does let me do things with my money, my bank, my way,” De Leon said.
Maya’s short film brilliantly showcases the acting prowess of Soberano and De Leon, weaving in playful references to iconic Hollywood films and pop culture. From Assassin Liza to Kaiju Dolly, each scene exudes fun and excitement, emphasizing why Maya is as convenient as a wallet and as secure as a bank.
“We’re thrilled to have both Liza and Dolly pushing boundaries of payments and banking with Maya, as you’ve seen in the newly launched short film. They make the country proud as they achieve greater heights on the global scene. They embody the spirit of defiance and optimism, making them the perfect ambassadors for Maya,” according to Pepe Torres, Chief Marketing Officer of Maya.
