GoTyme Raffle Brings Overseas Filipinos Home for Holiday Reunions

For many overseas Filipinos, the holiday season carries a simple wish—to come home and spend time with family. GoTyme Bank is turning international remittances into a possible ticket home through its newly launched “It’s Tyme to Be Together” campaign.

Running from September 16 to November 30, 2026, the homecoming raffle gives GoTyme Bank customers opportunities to win round-trip flights and cash prizes when they send or receive qualifying international remittances through the GoTyme Bank app.

Five grand prize winners will each receive round-trip economy flights for themselves and a companion, along with additional prizes aimed at making their return to the Philippines more memorable.

The campaign is being carried out in partnership with Cebu Pacific, its official airline partner, and global remittance provider TapTap Send.

“For Filipinos abroad, every remittance carries hard work, sacrifice, and love,” said Nate Clarke, president and CEO of GoTyme Bank. He added that the campaign aims to provide customers not only with convenient remittance services but also an opportunity to reunite with their loved ones during the holidays.
Cebu Pacific Marketing Director Michelle Eve De Guzman said the airline is proud to help bring Filipinos closer to their families, including travelers coming from destinations such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia.

Beyond the raffle, GoTyme Bank is strengthening its international money transfer services by allowing customers to send and receive funds directly through its mobile app.

Customers sending money overseas can view applicable fees, exchange rates, estimated arrival times, and the amount recipients are expected to receive before confirming a transaction. The Send Money Abroad service supports transfers to more than 200 countries and territories in eight currencies: AUD, CNY, EUR, GBP, JPY, KRW, SGD, and USD.

Incoming international funds can also be received directly into a GoTyme Bank account through SWIFT, supported remittance providers such as TapTap Send, or participating Visa partners. Its SWIFT transfers are powered by Wise.

To join the raffle, customers must opt in and complete a qualifying international remittance worth at least ₱5,000. Each eligible transaction sent or received directly through the GoTyme Bank app earns one raffle entry, giving overseas Filipinos and their families another reason to look forward to being together this holiday season.
