This season's hottest accessory is yellow, plastic and makes shopping a breeze
MANILA, Philippines - The best kind of accessory isn’t a designer handbag — or a pair of exorbitantly-priced shoes.
The best accessory is discreet (it doesn’t call attention to itself), versatile (goes with everything in your closet) and willing to go with you to the depths of the jungle — or the back bin of a Forever 21 sale.
Forever 21’s partnership with BDO, launched last May during Philippine Fashion Week, resulted in what’s become the hottest accessory this side of the shopping mall: the Forever 21 MasterCard.
Designed to meet the needs of trend-obsessed consumers, the new credit card offers shoppers exclusive deals and benefits.
“We are happy to offer a new world of exciting privileges that matches the passions of the younger market,” says Nannette R. Regala, senior vice president and consumer lending group marketing head of BDO, who notes that the Forever 21 MasterCard is a first of its kind in the retail credit card niche.
The color of money: BDO’s Forever 21 Mastercard A special rewards program offers a point system, with cardholders redeeming three times more points when they shop at Forever 21. A zero percent installment plan means you can shop without consequences (well, for three or six months at least) at Forever 21 and other BDO partner stores. Owning the card garners you entry to the world of Forever 21 members-only sales, priority access to upcoming season offers, rebates and special discounts, particularly during SM three-day sale weekends, invitations to special events like shopping parties and store events, and birthday discounts.
Cardholders will also benefit from BDO Credit Card programs and perks, as well as the bank’s convenient ATMs spread throughout the country (over 700 bank branches and counting).
Application forms are available at Forever 21 SM Makati and SM MegaMall as well as BDO branches within Metro Manila. Download the application form at www.bdo.com.ph or call BDO at 631-8000 for more info.
