Frequently Asked Questions

What is the relationship between PayMaya and Maya?

Can I use PayMaya (Maya) to pay at any store with a QR code?

What major services or bills can I pay using PayMaya?

Based on its partnerships, you can use PayMaya to pay for Spotify Premium plans, purchase from Apple services (App Store, Apple Music, iCloud), and make payments to the Pag-IBIG Fund for savings and loan repayments. It has also historically offered cashback deals for online shopping, load purchases, and gaming pins.
