Rewards and perks of UnionBank Mercury Card
One of the key features of the card is that you can earn five times the usual reward points on purchases related to health and wellness. This includes buying essential items like medicine, vitamins, and supplements at Mercury Drug, as well as signing up for gym memberships, fitness classes, or even spa treatments.
Additionally, the UnionBank Mercury Card comes with no annual fees for life, so you can keep this card for life without worrying about hidden charges.
There are a few other perks, too. You get a free annual physical exam thrown in to help you stay on top of your health, and for emergencies, you have access to 24/7 ambulance services within Metro Manila for peace of mind.
When it comes to redeeming points, the process is fairly straightforward. You can use them for shopping vouchers or wellness products, with the faster earning rate on health-related purchases making it easier to turn points into rewards.
Those interested in applying for the card can do so online, with an easy application process through UnionBank’s website or by visiting physical branches. Once approved, cardholders can immediately begin earning reward points and accessing the benefits outlined above.
Meanwhile, Citi cardholders with a pre-existing Mercury Drug Citi Card will be given a UnionBank Mercury Card as a replacement following UnionBank's acquisition of Citi's consumer banking franchise in the Philippines in 2022.
