Taptap Send launched a promotional campaign on September 16, 2026, to reward overseas Filipinos during the holiday season. By sending at least 5,000 pesos to a GoTyme Bank account before November 30, users enter to win round-trip flights or cash.
Why it matters
High airfares and demanding fourth-quarter work schedules often prevent most overseas Filipinos from returning home for the holidays. This promotion aims to incentivize remittances while offering participants a chance to win travel back to the Philippines.
Eligible participants must send at least 5,000 pesos to a GoTyme Bank account to qualify. The promotion features grand prizes including round-trip economy flights and 20,000 pesos in cash.

Culture Shift
The campaign acknowledges that only 5% of overseas Filipinos manage to return home for the holidays. By focusing on remittance-linked prizes, the company addresses the economic and logistical barriers that keep the majority of the diaspora away from the Philippines during the season.
Users sending money to the Philippines can gain entry to the contest by meeting the minimum transfer threshold of 5,000 pesos via the mobile app. These transfers must be directed to a GoTyme Bank account to be eligible for the flight and cash prizes.
The takeaway
Participants should ensure their remittances are sent through the designated app and deposited into the required bank account before the deadline. Winners of the campaign are scheduled to be revealed in the second week of December.
