EastWest Bank has expanded its integration with Google Pay to include its debit cards, allowing customers to make contactless payments using NFC-enabled Android smartphones and wearables.

This development follows the initial rollout in November 2025, which solely supported the bank’s credit cards.

Cardholders can now add their Visa-backed debit cards to Google Wallet for domestic, international, and online transactions.

To ensure security, the platform employs tokenisation, replacing sensitive card details with a unique digital identifier. Additionally, users can lock and unlock their cards via the bank’s EasyWay mobile application.

EastWest Bank Chief Executive Officer Jerry Ngo told Manila Bulletin that the expansion offers customers an easier payment method that “fits naturally into how they live, travel and shop today”.

To encourage adoption, the bank is offering promotional travel perks until 31 March 2026, including a low 1.7% foreign exchange fee and waived bank conversion charges.
