Maya Mini Payments: Convert Credit Card Purchases to Installments
Maya has officially introduced Mini Payments, a new flexible installment feature built directly into its digital banking app. The feature allows select Maya credit cardholders to split their regular, posted transactions into smaller monthly installments, giving users more control over their cash flow and unexpected big-ticket expenses.

| Maya Launches Mini Payments: Convert Credit Card Purchases Into Installments via App |
Unlike traditional bank installment plans that require you to shop exclusively at specific partner merchants or wait for seasonal promotional periods, this feature applies broadly to eligible transactions after the purchase has already been made.
How Maya Mini Payments Work
The feature is natively available to Maya Black Credit Card and Landers Cashback Everywhere Credit Card holders. Eligible users can convert their straight purchases into structured payment plans spanning 3, 6, 9, or 12 months.
Plan Requirements and Limits
To qualify for conversion, your total transaction or accumulated bill must meet the specific minimum amount set for each term length:
- 3-Month Plan: Minimum converted amount of PHP 3,000
- 6-Month Plan: Minimum converted amount of PHP 6,000
- 9-Month Plan: Minimum converted amount of PHP 9,000
- 12-Month Plan: Minimum converted amount of PHP 12,000

Step-by-Step: How to Activate Mini Payments

- Open the Maya app and navigate to your Credit Card dashboard.
- Select Mini Payments from the available feature options.

Teknogadyet’s Take
Maya’s Mini Payments feature offers a highly practical tool for credit card users who want to protect their liquid cash without avoiding necessary big purchases like gadgets, appliances, or travel. A flat 1% monthly interest rate is standard and competitive for consumer credit cards, but the real value here is the post-purchase flexibility. Being able to buy what you need immediately and decide to split the payment later directly in the app—without dealing with retail cashiers or merchant restrictions—makes credit management much simpler for tech-savvy consumers.
