Travel platform Klook and finance app GCash have announced the launch of a co-branded travel debit card designed to simplify international payments for Filipino travellers.

Supported by the Visa network, the card works in over 200 countries and opens for orders in December.

The collaboration integrates Klook’s travel service inventory with the GCash financial ecosystem.

GCash executive Barbara Dapul explained that the card enables travellers to make purchases abroad. Crucially, it allows them to do so without relying on physical cash or a mobile signal.

Key financial features include zero foreign exchange service fees and competitive forex rates. The card also provides access to global ATMs and allows for real-time transaction tracking via the app.

Regarding incentives, new cardholders will receive a ‘Welcome Pack’ valued at approximately PHP 5,000.

Upon activation, the package grants cardholders a set of travel vouchers. These benefits include a PHP 1,000 airport transfer voucher, a PHP 350 eSIM voucher, and a PHP 1,000 hotel credit.

Users also receive an immediate automatic upgrade to the ‘Klook Rewards Gold Tier.’ This status unlocks exclusive perks such as triple KlookCash earnings, priority customer support, and additional travel coupons.

Klook Philippines General Manager Michelle Ho noted that the tie-up advances the companies’ shared mission to simplify travel. She explained that the collaboration combines an experience-focused platform with digital financial services.

Interested users can join a waitlist on the Klook app.

To mark the launch, the first 10,000 customers can purchase the card for an introductory fee of PHP 250.

But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
