Mastercard has unveiled its latest initiative, Phone. Passport. Mastercard., a regional travel campaign designed to streamline travel across Southeast Asia. This campaign, which spans Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam, offers more than 300 deals in dining, shopping, accommodation, transport, and experiences, making travel planning and execution more convenient for tourists.

The campaign aims to cater to the increasing number of travellers opting for short-haul trips within the ASEAN region. By leveraging Mastercard's secure payment network, travellers can enjoy seamless and secure transactions, whether booking a stay, dining out, or shopping. Mastercard's digital technologies, including tokenisation and fraud monitoring, ensure that payments are both fast and secure, allowing travellers to focus on their experiences rather than logistics.

Dheeraj Raina, Senior Vice President, Head of Integrated Marketing and Communications for Southeast Asia at Mastercard, highlighted the region's appeal: “Southeast Asia is one of the most rewarding regions in the world to explore today — rich in culture, nature, food and unforgettable experiences, often just a short trip away.”

Running from May to December 2026, the campaign not only enhances the traveller experience but also supports local merchants and travel partners by engaging consumers along popular travel routes. Mastercard's initiative underscores the region's connectivity and diverse offerings, positioning it as an ideal destination for those seeking convenience and value in their travels
