Raenald de Jesus, Grab Philippines’ Deputy Country Marketing Head said, Cebu is one of Grab’s biggest and most important markets in the country. More than just bringing Cebuanos from point A to B, they want passengers to get more value with every ride through fun and rewarding moments. Every ride taken with Grab earns them GrabRewards points, which passengers can use to redeem exciting offers and freebies. They wanted to let Cebuanos know that there’s so much more to a ride and that the fun can start even before getting to their destinations. Special promotions and activities are lined up during the festival and passengers enjoyed it.
