GET IT IF…Honest take

Para sa heavy Lazada shoppers lang, kasi Lazada Credits ang rewards.

Bottom line: Sulit ang 3% kung madalas kang mamili sa Lazada. Kung hindi, store credit lang ang makukuha mo.

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

Kung gagastos ka tulad ng typical household (~₱825k a year), karamihan sa Lazada, ~₱3,500 ang balik. -₱1,500 ang travel value, negative dahil sa foreign purchase charges. ₱3,000 ang annual fee pagkatapos ng free year; puwede mong hingin ang waiver, pero sa bank ang desisyon. #62 sa 123 cards, 27 ang score.

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

  • ₱6 in Lazada Credits per ₱200 spend sa Lazada, katumbas ng 3%.
  • Libre ang annual fee sa first year.
  • Pwedeng 0% installment hanggang 36 months ang Lazada purchases, galing sa data.

What's bad

  • Blangko ang rate para sa other merchants sa T&C. Galing sa card listing ng UB ang ₱1 per ₱200 (0.5%).
  • Per the T&C, walang credits ang bills paid o enrolled sa UnionBank Online.
  • Store credit lang ito: nagiging LazCoins kapag nag-transfer o nag-redeem.
  • Foreign purchases: 1% network fee plus up to 2.525% UB service fee (fees page), kaya hindi ito pang-abroad.

The catch: 404 ang UB product page ng card na ito, kaya Lazada Rewards Program T&C (Sep 7, 2026) ang binasa namin. Walang income requirement sa T&C; from our data ang ₱360,000 a year. Per the T&C, tatlong buwan lang valid ang LazCoins mula credit date, kaya gamitin agad. Galing sa data ang ₱200 minimum per transaction.

Rechecked on the bank page on 2026-10-24. Not on the page: minimum income; 0% installment terms; the card's own product page (node 1559 returned 404); minimum ₱200 per transaction (from our row). Our opinion, based on published terms. Not financial advice. The bank decides approval.
