A slice of innovation: GoTyme Bank and Jabroni’s team up for the world’s first Pizza Bank

After successfully setting up banking kiosks in supermarkets and retail outlets, GoTyme Bank is once again disrupting the financial services industry by launching in the unlikeliest of places: a pizza restaurant.

The new Pizza Bank—an innovative partnership between GoTyme Bank and Jabroni’s Pizza—is more than just a quirky concept; it's a seamless blend of digital and physical banking that makes financial services more accessible and, dare we say, fun.

Where food meets finance

The Pizza Bank is located at Jabroni’s Molito branch in Alabang, Muntinlupa. The cozy, two-story location has become a popular hangout for families and friend groups who enjoy their freshly made New York Style-pizzas with options like Vodka Roni and vegetarian pizza Popeye, mozzarella sticks, and their buffalo wings.

Its casual vibe and seamless service fit perfectly with GoTyme Bank's vision to make banking as accessible and engaging as possible.

“The Pizza Bank is a community hub, a place where people can connect over good food and good vibes,” says Justin Uy, founder of Jabroni’s.

Nate Clarke, GoTyme Bank CEO echoes this, adding, “The Pizza Bank is a prime example of how we’re blending the physical and digital worlds in a fun, community-centric way. At GoTyme Bank, we continuously seek innovative ways to make banking more accessible and enjoyable for our customers.”

The Pizza Bank isn’t just a local innovation; it’s a world-first concept that reimagines how financial services can integrate into daily life. With a GoTyme Bank kiosk on-site, customers can open an account in under five minutes, access banking services, and take advantage of exclusive perks. 

Banking on possibilities 

The idea for a Pizza Bank came from a successful previous collaboration with Jabroni’s, where customers could get a discount on their orders with no minimum spend if they paid with their GoTyme Bank account. "We were looking at niche markets, and this promo became a hit," recalls GoTyme Bank Co-CEO Albert Tinio.

Tinio reveals that their efforts to be where their market is have paid off, with the bank ending July with an impressive 7 million users. "It is incumbent upon us to keep pushing the envelope, whether in technology, existing regulations, or existing processes and policies," he says. "Who would have thought that you can do your banking in a pizza place?”

Grab a slice, open an account, and save

To celebrate the launch, GoTyme Bank is serving up two special promos at Jabroni’s Pizza Molito branch:

For new users: Open a GoTyme Bank account at the in-store kiosk and get 25% off your total bill. This offer is valid until Dec. 31, 2025.

For existing users: Enjoy 10% off your bill when you pay using your GoTyme Bank Visa debit card. This promo runs until Jan. 15, 2026.

GoTyme Bank’s features are a major draw for users. The bank is popular for its easy fund transfers to other banks, e-wallets, and other GoTyme accounts, as well as for its use during travel.

"We have very affordable exchange rates," says Tinio. "We see people posting on their socials about the ease of use when paying for MRT rides in Singapore and Hong Kong.”

The rewards program is another big hit, especially for those looking to stretch their peso. Users earn:

• 1 point for every P100 spent in the Robinsons retail ecosystem; and
• 1 point for every P500 spent outside of the Robinsons ecosystem.

In the spirit of continuous innovation, GoTyme Bank’s next projects include a Buy Now, Pay Later feature, crypto investments, and inbound remittance services.
