Helping Mompreneurs Thrive

As moms, we juggle so much. We care for our families, manage our homes, and, for many of us, run small businesses. Whether you’re selling homemade baked goods, running an online shop, or offering professional services, having a secure and convenient way to manage finances is essential.

This makes the recent partnership between Visa and CIMB Bank Philippines great news for all mompreneurs and small business owners. On February 27, 2025, the two financial giants announced an exclusive deal to launch a Visa Business Debit Card designed to make business banking easier, safer, and more rewarding. This is perfect for moms growing their businesses while managing busy households.

Why This Matters for Mompreneurs & SMEs

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) make up 99.6% of businesses in the Philippines, providing jobs and fueling economic growth. Many of these businesses are run by hardworking women who balance family life with their entrepreneurial dreams. However, access to banking solutions tailored for small businesses has been limited until now.

With the upcoming CIMB Visa Business Debit Card, expected to launch in Q3 2025, small business owners will finally have a banking solution designed specifically for them. This card will be linked to a high-interest business savings account and will offer:

Zero fees – Say goodbye to unnecessary banking charges.
Free fund transfers – Making payments and sending money will be easier than ever.
Insurance product offers – Helping you stay financially secure.
Revolving credit facility – A great option for moms who need flexible cash flow to grow their businesses.

This means less hassle, more savings, and smarter financial management, so you can focus on what matters. And that is growing your business while spending quality time with your family.

Exclusive Perks & Rewards for Visa Cardholders

Beyond financial convenience, Visa and CIMB Bank Philippines are also offering special discounts and privileges at select Visa merchants. Whether you need supplies for your shop, marketing tools for your online business, or even just a self-care treat, this partnership ensures you get more value from every peso spent.

Making Digital Banking Work for SMEs

As a fully digital bank, CIMB Bank Philippines has already changed the way Filipinos do banking, gaining the trust of 9 million customers. Now, they’re focusing on empowering SMEs—including mompreneurs—by providing banking solutions that are secure, convenient, and tailored to their needs.

“Our partnership with Visa is part of our commitment to supporting SMEs with enhanced payment solutions that simplify business transactions,” said Vijay Manoharan, CEO of CIMB Bank Philippines. “We want to help entrepreneurs manage their finances more efficiently so they can focus on growing their businesses and supporting their families.”

Visa shares this vision, with Jeffrey Navarro, Visa Philippines Country Manager, emphasizing that this collaboration is all about helping Filipino businesses go digital, grow stronger, and succeed in today’s fast-changing economy.

Supporting Women in Business

This partnership is not just about payments, but on financial empowerment, too. Many moms run businesses out of passion, necessity, or the desire to create a better future for their families. With smarter banking solutions like the Visa Business Debit Card, managing business finances becomes easier and more accessible.

Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting your business journey, having the right tools can make all the difference. With Visa and CIMB Bank Philippines working together, moms in business can look forward to a more seamless, secure, and rewarding financial experience.
