Have You Seen Changes in GRAB Lately?

Every Filipino riding Grab must be feeling a little lucky lately. With the company offering true wallet friendly features, smart ones get the GrabCar Saver, GrabFood Saver Delivery, and for the hungry ones, GrabFood Saver Meals. They also have subscription plans such as GrabUnlimited and Grab Ride Saver which I often use going to events and places here in the metro.  

GrabCar Saver

GrabCar Saver has been implemented recently. In it, you get 15 percent cheaper rates in booking a standard Grab Car. For now, it is being done Metro Manila and in Pampanga (Central Luzon). Pretty soon, it'll be done in all Grab areas, though you'll have to note, you will have to wait a little while longer. You can also use GrabShare and use it to be with another passenger. This is useful for those who are not really in a hurry and you'll get even cheaper rates with it. You can get 30 percent savings from it, which is quite nice for those who are watching their transportation spending these days.

GrabFood Saver

It's been offered for quite some time now in the Grab Superapp. If you're fond of ordering from restuarants and establishments, this gives you the option of enjoying your food and have it delivered with the Saver option. Fees will certainly be less than usual, I do this when I have lots of time in between meals and I even do it when I have guests coming a little late than usual. I just order ahead of time so it could reach my location perfectly. These are great prices especially if you love gatherings. Imagine only 15 pesos? That's a steal.

With the rates already low, get the GrabUnlimited for major discounts on GrabFood, GrabMart and GrabCar. You can opt to get the annual plan instead since it'll cost you even lower. I have the Grab Ride Saver though as it slashes 10 percent for 60 rides, I use it all and pay only 99 pesos for it. Quite nice if you ride Grab Cars regularly. Grab certainly is changing the way we ride each day, for that, I'm quite thankful for the perks I get when I avail them. They're really good at it.

Time to Try foodpanda's "pandago" Delivery Service

If you weren't looking and if you're living under a rock, there are a lot of change happening in the foodpanda app. Recently, they launched a new package delivery service called "pandago", something that certainly can benefit you for your personal errands and businesses for their delivery needs.

Case in point some foodpanda merch I had a few days ago which my friend saw on my stories. He's single and very sad lol. So it wouldn't take a genius what a friend would do, send him the merch of course! So it just took a few steps to put in my pickup point, his address, enter the voucher (which is 95 percent off on first pandago transaction), and booking it. It took about 4-5 minutes to have the driver pickup the parcel (which was quick) and a couple minutes more to get the parcel to its destination.

Ms. Patricia Jacinto the Operations Director of foodpanda Philippines puts this as a convenience service that would benefit Filipinos especially if you're sending documents, gifts, and packages. They wanted to also expand their services across the platform as they see the demand for it. They rolled out pandago in several cities like Davao and Cabanatuan. There's also real time tracking on the app so you can see if it's already there plus insurance coverage if it gets lost or stolen during transit. Use NEWPGO on the app and see how it could take off an amount on your delivery services. Imagine the amount of people especially MSME's who can do deliveries fast, 24/7 anywhere in the country (that's the good end goal eh?).

I'm a panda PRO subscriber and have had lots of benefits from groceries (from pandamart) and food deliveries (from my favorite restaurants). Now there's more things that would make my life easy when I forget something from home (which happens a lot apparently) or just want to make someone's day special. 

Hope you all get to try pandago, I just did, it's not that expensive and I totally enjoyed it!

foodpanda Forges Patnership with NBA

Went to Mall of Asia Entertainment Hall pretty early for the recent announcement of foodpanda and their partnership with the biggest league in the world, the NBA. Present during the occasion was their fun lovin' mascot Paupau, their executives  Amer Bakshi, Lorelie Olalia and NBA's Hubert Ling and Mae Dichupa. 

They also brought in UAAP and PBA players to make sure games would be extra fun for participating foodpanda customers that morning. 

This means that from now on, foodpanda will be the official food delivery partner of the NBA. Each time you watch the NBA games especially this coming NBA All Star Weekend, it'll be super convenient to order up at your foodpanda app and get your food delivered fast.

150K dollars will be given for two charity organizations, and it's been a while since Lebron lost one so who knows?! 

I'm watching the games now at Tipsy Pig in QC where they are doing a Livestream together with Cignal. I hope he still wins because the draft was good.
