Visa has partnered with GoTyme Bank for the FIFA World Cup 2026, opening up a chance for Filipino users to experience the event in person. It also marks a clear shift for GoTyme Bank, as it begins to extend beyond the local market and align itself with globally recognized platforms.
With over 9 million customers in the Philippines and more than 20 million worldwide, GoTyme Bank has been expanding fast. And this partnership shows it’s not just focused on everyday banking anymore, it’s starting to connect users to bigger experiences.
“This partnership marks an important step forward for GoTyme Bank. Working alongside Visa in connection with the FIFA World Cup 2026 reflects the ambition we have for our customers and for the country,” says GoTyme Bank CEO Nate Clarke.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 isn’t just another tournament. It’s shaping up to be the biggest one yet. It will be hosted across the United States, Mexico, and Canada, with 48 teams competing in 104 matches. The tournament runs from June 11 to July 19, 2026, ending in New York/New Jersey.
That scale alone already makes it worth watching. But what stands out is how global the reach will be—billions of viewers are expected to tune in.
“Visa and FIFA have a long, shared history of promoting football culture and celebrating football talent through the power of payments. We are committed to connecting fans to the moments that matter most, and the FIFA World Cup 2026 is one of the world’s most anticipated sporting events. We are amplifying this partnership through collaboration with GoTyme Bank, reflecting our shared goal of expanding access and enabling more Filipinos to participate in the global football experience. Together, we are enabling secure and seamless digital payments to unlock meaningful opportunities for cardholders across the Philippines,” said Jeffrey Navarro, Visa’s Country Manager for the Philippines.
How the Promo Works
The idea is simple: use your GoTyme Bank Visa Debit Card, and you get a chance to win a trip to the World Cup. From a practical standpoint, this isn’t something that requires changing habits. It’s more like turning everyday spending on groceries, bills, and online purchases into raffle entries.
For Classic and Pitch Black cards, every ₱1,000 spent earns one entry. If you’re traveling and spending abroad, that gets bumped up to 3x entries, which is a nice bonus.
Two winners (one Classic and one Pitch Black cardholder) will get an all-expense-paid trip for two to attend the Group Stage in Los Angeles, including business class flights.
Limited-Edition Cards That Actually Feel Special
Alongside the promo, GoTyme Bank is also releasing limited-edition Visa Debit Cards. These come in Pitch Black and Trophy Gold, both featuring FIFA World Cup 2026 artwork by Filipino artist Ross Du. It’s a small detail, but having a local artist involved makes the cards feel less generic.

The Trophy Gold card stands out the most, not just visually, but also because of how rare it is. Only about 1 in 20,000 cards will be Gold. And unlike the others, you don’t need to spend anything to join the raffle. Just having the card automatically gives you a shot at the grand prize.
The prize is an all-expense-paid trip for two to watch the FIFA World Cup 2026 Final in New York City, also with business class tickets.
Getting a Card Is Quick and Easy
Cards will be available starting March 23, 2026, at GoTyme kiosks nationwide. Existing users can upgrade to a limited-edition card for ₱200, and the new card is printed in under five minutes.

All card types, Classic, Pitch Black, and Trophy Gold, are randomly distributed. That means getting a Gold card really comes down to luck, which adds a bit of excitement to the whole process.

Turning Everyday Spending Into Something Bigger
Using a debit card is already part of daily life. This just adds a layer where those small transactions could lead to something much bigger. For football fans who have only experienced the World Cup through screens, this feels like a rare opportunity to change that.
