'Plus' sa pangalan, pero manipis ang balik kahit may 2x points sa gadgets at online.

Bottom line: Mas maliit ang ~₱1,000 na rewards kaysa sa fee pagkatapos ng first year. Kunin lang ito kung gusto mo ng Metrobank card at ng first-year waiver; maraming card sa ranking namin ang mas malaki ang balik.

Read the full take: the math, what's good, what hurts

Sa buong taon, ~₱1,000 lang ang kita ng typical household (~₱825k a year) sa rewards. Negative naman ang travel side (~-₱2,000) dahil sa fee sa foreign transactions (3.50%), kaya halos wala nang matitira. 23 ang score, kaya #86 ito sa 123 cards.

The numbers in this take are our estimates for a typical household, not bank policy. Check fees and waivers with the bank.

What's good

  • 2x points sa gadgets, internet at mobile services, at online spend.
  • 1 point per ₱20 on all other spend, and points never expire.
  • May 0% installment programs.

What's bad

  • Per the rates-and-fees page, foreign spend carries a 1% cross border fee plus a 2.50% forex processing fee. Avoid using it abroad.
  • The page lists no lounge or travel insurance.

The catch: Ang eligibility requirements at annual fee ay hindi makikita sa card page; nakita namin ang ₱2,500 sa rates-and-fees page, libre sa first year. Ang ₱350,000 na taunang income ay galing sa data.

Rechecked on the bank page on 2026-10-24. Not on the page: annual fee (not on card page; seen on rates-and-fees page); minimum income (from our data); eligibility requirements; foreign fee (seen on rates-and-fees page); lounge or insurance perks. Our opinion, based on published terms. Not financial advice. The bank decides approval.
