From Mumbai to Delhi: 1win’s Cricket Roadshow
As part of a nationwide roadshow, the brand visited multiple cities and towns on the way from Mumbai to New Delhi with a fleet of branded trucks, entertaining fan zones, and a caravan of local influencers.
Indian actors Surbhi Jyoti and Vishal Pandey joined the ride, lighting up each destination with their charm, humor, and love for cricket. Together with local influencers, they shared stories, cheered for their favorite teams, and brought smiles to thousands of fans.
“Cricket is something we all connect over, and this roadshow by 1win made that connection feel even more special. I loved seeing how excited people were when the trucks arrived—it was pure magic,” said Vishal Pandey.
Along the long road from Mumbai to New Delhi, 1win’s blue trucks made more than just a journey—they delivered the joy of watching the 2025 Indian Premier League. Each stop along the route transformed into a vibrant celebration, complete with live screenings, cricket-themed games, giveaways, and surprise celebrity visits. In the evening, 1win turned trucks into open-air cinemas, streaming live IPL matches on big screens under the stars—free of charge for the public. This way, people without access to TVs or mobile data could join the national celebration and cheer for their heroes.
“It felt like we were on a real adventure—traveling from city to city, meeting so many amazing people, and watching cricket under the stars. I’ll never forget the smiles we saw in those villages,” added Surbhi Jyoti.
With this IPL campaign, 1win not only carried gifts but also carried a message: cricket is more than a game—it is a reason to come together and get closer as a community.

GoTyme Bank becomes the first digital bank in the Philippines to enable Apple Pay, expanding secure and seamless digital payments for 10 million customers
MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – Paymentology, the leading global issuer processor, today announced the successful launch of Apple Pay for GoTyme Bank in the Philippines. Through this launch, GoTyme becomes one of the first issuers in the Philippine market to enable Apple Pay, giving 10 million customers an easy, secure and private way to pay using their Apple devices.
As one of the country’s fastest-growing digital banks, GoTyme continues to accelerate its digital payments strategy by expanding secure, seamless and convenient payment experiences for Filipino consumers. Customers can now securely add their GoTyme debit card to Apple Wallet and make contactless payments in stores, within apps and online wherever Apple Pay is accepted.
Apple Pay uses industry-leading tokenisation technology, meaning card numbers are never stored on devices or shared with merchants. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, with every transaction authenticated through Face ID, Touch ID or a device passcode, providing an additional layer of security while delivering a fast, frictionless checkout experience.
Nate Clark, President and CEO at GoTyme Bank commented: “At GoTyme Bank, we’re constantly looking for ways to make banking simpler, safer and more rewarding for our customers. Bringing Apple Pay to GoTyme Bank customers in the Philippines gives them an easy and secure way to pay wherever they shop while continuing to earn rewards points on all their transactions. This is another step in our commitment to making everyday banking more beautiful and convenient for our customers.
The launch comes as digital payments continue to reshape the Philippine economy. According to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), digital payments now account for more than half of all retail payment transactions, as consumers increasingly embrace mobile-first banking and contactless payments. Meanwhile, smartphone penetration continues to rise, supporting growing demand for digital wallets and tokenised payment experiences. As digital commerce accelerates, enabling secure mobile payments through services such as Apple Pay is becoming an increasingly important differentiator for financial institutions.
Minh-Ha Truong, Head of Growth, APAC at Paymentology, added: “As a long-standing partner to GoTyme, we’re proud to support another significant milestone in its growth journey. Bringing Apple Pay to market demonstrates how modern, cloud-native issuer processing enables digital banks to rapidly deliver innovative payment experiences while maintaining the highest standards of security, scalability and performance. Together, we’re helping shape the future of digital payments in the Philippines.”
The launch further strengthens GoTyme’s position as one of Southeast Asia’s leading digital banks and highlights the value of Paymentology’s cloud-native issuer processing platform in helping banks and fintechs rapidly introduce innovative payment capabilities that meet evolving customer expectations.

Set against the sun-drenched landscapes of southern Taiwan, Under the Hakka Liugdui Sun highlights how the people of Liugdui have thrived alongside the land for over 300 years. Following local scholars, farmers, and artisans, the documentary explores how this community adapts its deep-rooted traditions—from water stewardship to food heritage—in response to environmental and economic change, offering vital modern insights on sustainability, rural revitalization, and cultural continuity.
Across three episodes—Water, agriculture, and food—the documentary explores how the people of Liugdui blend tradition with modern innovation. Viewers meet groundwater experts, farmers pioneering sustainable crops, and artisans repurposing local materials like betel nut, alongside culinary practitioners who preserve Hakka identity through ancestral rituals, communal feasts, and family traditions that unite generations.
