We went for lunch at Wendy’s, and I had a delicious Son of Baconator, a salad, and fries. Total bill came to about 500 PHP, and I put out my phone to pay using my Globe Rewards. Across all branches of Wendy’s in the Philippines, minimum redemption is only 50 points.

Knowing that I was having my birthday trip to Hong Kong and Macau the succeeding weekend, I headed over to Bench to find myself a pair of shoes and jeans. All Bench, Human, Kashieca, Celio, and their sister brands nationwide allow a redemption of 50 points minimum.

Afterwards, we went to Greenbelt 3 to watch The Conjuring, which was the most-talked-about film then. Tickets cost about 200 PHP each, and with just a few clicks again, we were handed our tickets. All Ayala Malls Cinemas across the country accept as few as 100 Globe Rewards points, equal of course to a hundred off the price of a ticket.

Capping off the day, we went to Figaro Coffee Company and got two cups of coffee and pastries. The local coffee brand has a number of branches in many parts of the country, and with Globe Rewards, subscribers can get free or discounted treats for only 50 points or more.

Thanks to the unbeatable Globe Rewards, I saved a bundle for my pre-birthday celebration! I’m so glad to be a subscriber of the telecom that provides the best subscriber experience.

HOW TO REDEEM USING GLOBE REWARDS

Having free or discounted treats is easy with Globe Rewards because every reload on Globe Prepaid and TM, and every spend on Globe Postpaid get corresponding points. Better than ever, the Globe Rewards program allows an awesome one-point-to-one-peso instant conversion scheme with a growing list of partner establishments.

How to do it? Simply purchase what you want from a store and say that you will pay using Globe Rewards. They will ask you to send BUY<space><10-digit number of the store><space><number of points> to 4438. Note that the mobile number for Globe Rewards of the store is specific and can be seen from a standee—better yet, ask to be sure.

If your points are not enough to cover the entire amount, you can very well pay with cash, credit card, or whatever the form of payment the store accepts. You can check your balance beforehand by sending in BAL to 4438. Please note that there are various low minimum point redemptions for every partner merchant. Refer to the table below:
