It’s Tyme to Be Together: GoTyme Bank launches raffle to fly overseas Filipinos home for the holidays

In partnership with Cebu Pacific and TapTap Send, GoTyme Bank is giving customers the chance to win round-trip flights and cash prizes by sending or receiving international remittances through the GoTyme Bank app.

For millions of Filipinos, sending money home is more than a financial transaction—it is a love language that keeps families connected across oceans. GoTyme Bank today officially launched its “It’s Tyme to Be Together” campaign, an initiative designed to make those connections stronger by offering overseas Filipinos and their loved ones a chance to reunite in person for the holidays. 

Flying families home for the holidays 

To celebrate its comprehensive inward and outward international remittance services, GoTyme Bank is hosting a special homecoming raffle to fly winners back to the Philippines. Through this raffle, GoTyme Bank is making the everyday act of sending and receiving money across borders even more meaningful. Five grand prize winners will receive round-trip economy flights for themselves and a companion, along with additional prizes designed to make their homecoming even more special. 

Strategic partnerships with Cebu Pacific and TapTap Send 

The promo is made possible through strategic partnerships with Cebu Pacific, the campaign’s official airline partner, and TapTap Send, a leading global remittance provider. Together, the brands are working to deliver a complete, seamless homecoming journey for Filipinos worldwide. 

“Banking should do more than just move money—it should bring people closer to the things and the people that matter most,” said Nate Clarke, president and CEO of GoTyme Bank. “For Filipinos abroad, every remittance carries hard work, sacrifice, and love. Through our secure and transparent remittance services, and with the support of our partners at Cebu Pacific and TapTap Send, we are thrilled to offer our customers not just a better way to send money, but a real opportunity to come home and hold their loved ones close this season.” 

“Home is where Filipinos want to be during the holidays, and at Cebu Pacific, we are proud to play a part in bringing them there,” said Michelle Eve De Guzman, Marketing Director of Cebu Pacific. “Whether they are coming from Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, UAE, or Saudi Arabia, we are committed to flying more Filipinos closer to their families and loved ones. Through our partnership with GoTyme Bank, we hope to make more homecomings possible and remind every Juan that no matter how far they go, there is always a flight that can bring them home.” 

A simpler way to send, receive, and use international funds 

GoTyme Bank makes it easier for customers to send and receive money internationally, with both services available through the GoTyme Bank app. 

Customers sending money abroad can initiate transfers through the app anytime, with the fees, exchange rate, estimated arrival time, and expected amount the recipient will receive shown upfront before they confirm the transaction, giving them greater visibility and control. Through GoTyme Bank’s Send Money Abroad service, customers can send money to more than 200 countries and territories in eight currencies: AUD, CNY, EUR, GBP, JPY, KRW, SGD, and USD. 

 For Filipinos receiving money from abroad, funds can be sent directly to their GoTyme Bank account through an international bank via SWIFT, supported remittance partners such as TapTap Send, or participating Visa partners. GoTyme Bank’s SWIFT transfers are powered by Wise. 

There is no need to visit a branch or pick up cash. Once received, funds can be saved, spent, used to pay bills, or transferred, all through the same GoTyme Bank account. This gives customers a more convenient way to manage money across borders, from sending and receiving funds to using them, all within one account. 

Raffle mechanics and timeline 

The “It’s Tyme to Be Together” raffle promo runs from September 16 to November 30, 2026. GoTyme Bank customers must opt-in and then will automatically earn one raffle entry for every qualifying international remittance of at least P5,000 sent or received directly through the GoTyme Bank app.   

By offering transparent fees, competitive rates, and a complete suite of financial services in a single app, GoTyme Bank continues to eliminate the hassle of traditional branch visits for remittance senders and receivers alike.
