UnionBank and S&R launch co-branded credit card in Philippines

By Gloria Mathias

Union Bank of the Philippines (UnionBank) has teamed up with S&R, the membership-only grocery chain in the country, for a co-branded credit card that will make grocery shopping, dining, and lifestyle spending more rewarding.

To elevate your S&R shopping with the new UnionBank S&R credit card designed for wise shoppers, the following are the benefits:

• 3% in unlimited rebates when you shop at any S&R store nationwide.
• 1% unlimited rebates on your dining and shopping spend, and 0.5% unlimited rebates on everything else.
• There are no annual credit card fees forever. The S&R membership fee will be automatically charged to the card on the month of your membership anniversary.
• A free 18-piece Whole S&R Cheese Pizza for every P30,000 spent outside of S&R, capped at 4 every year.
• P1,500 S&R voucher as a welcome gift upon your first P10,000 spent anywhere using your UnionBank S&R credit card.

The above-mentioned are not only the benefits. For a limited time only, S&R will have a special launch offer for shoppers who will apply for the new UnionBank S&R credit card. Those who apply via S&R staff in any S&R branch and complete their application will be rewarded with one whole 18″ S&R pizza for free. Successful applicants can choose from any of S&R’s classic pizza flavours.

There are two easy ways to apply for the card: in-store and online. For in-store applications, you may visit the designated booth at the S&R branch of your choice, and you will be assisted by a representative. If you want to apply online, you may visit the website.

“We are thrilled to launch the first credit card co-brand partnership with the leading membership shopping establishment in the country, S&R!  This card is for customers who look to gain more value not only out of their membership and spending in S&R but also on purchases outside S&R.  On top of this, customers get all the best-in-class benefits and features of a UnionBank credit card with no annual membership fees,” said UnionBank’s Consumer Banking Head, Manoj Varma.
