McDonald’s Philippines Launches First Multiple Card Payment Facility


 IMG_4624
McDonald’s enables a more convenient way to pay for dine-in, take-out, and drive-thru transactions. Customers can now use their credit and reloadable cash cards to purchase McDonald’s products.
This payment facility aims for better customer experience by reducing payment service time in a safe and more convenient way. The improved efficiency in store operations also reflects the company’s continuing innovation and commitment to fast service.
IMG_4757
Close to 30 McDonald’s restaurants in Metro Manila are now equipped with a terminal to accept contactless card payments from Mastercard PayPass, VISA Paywave, e-Plus Tap To Pay Card, and Sweep Card.
This allows customers to do card transactions without having to enter a PIN or sign a receipt through the radio frequency identification (RFID) technology that ensure secure payments.
In 2015, more restaurants both in Metro Manila and provincial areas will be equipped with this technology. Customers can also look forward to contactless payment in Drive-Thru counters and McDelivery.
IMG_4746
“We never stop working towards an easier and more convenient way fo r customers to order and enjoy their McDonald’s favorites. We first changed the game with online and 24 hour McDelivery then came our McDo PH App, making our products available anytime, anywhere with the same goal in mind, we’re introducing contactless payment,” said Kenneth Yang, McDonald’s Philippines President and CEO.
“The technology is another first in the local quick service restaurant industry, as it uses a single terminal to accept cards from different issuers. Through this, we have also formed partnerships with trusted brands to offer only the best service to our customers.” Yang added.
Have you tried paying for your McDo goodies using your card? Share it on McDonald’s official Facebook page at www.facebook.com/McDo.ph or tag @McDo_PH on Twitter or Instagram.

Villa Lourdes Boracay, “ An Affordable yet A Home to Stay”


 IMG_4197
Before ,I thought that Boracay is a place where prices of room rentals and many other hotel accommodations  are just for those who have a lot of money. Maybe because before, there are only limited  and few establishments that caters on guest that visits the place.
But this connotation that I have has been removed just this 1st week of December , 2014 when we together with my friends  decided to go to Boracay  because of the free ticket that we got from 2 Go and was given freely by a Blogger friend.
IMG_3761
Our first day was quite impressive I guess because we have our stay at a Hotel with breakfast, lunch  and dinner.  We have all the time in the world to enjoy and do whatever we need to do that very day .Even the price of the  food was almost just the same as you were in Manila , In fact, fruit juices and other seasoned fruits are more affordable and more fresh .
IMG_7467
But then  came the second day , Villa Lourdes was our destination and as we come to the place though it was just one of the affordable rooms the place was so cool and its almost the same as the 3 Star Hotels in the Metro, 
IMG_4217
We have a double mattress room , and the bed was so soft , sheets was so neat and invitingly prepare you to a good night sleep after a long day of beach activities and some parties that was being held.
The place is so conducive to be into , its almost a few meters away from the marketplace and the beach itself. Backpackers should consider this place as a refuge and a very practical place to live by.
