The Philippine credit card market is segmented into three broad tiers: traditional premium cards targeting affluent lifestyle spenders, accessible entry cards targeting first-time borrowers, and digital-first cards targeting tech-savvy younger professionals. Across all tiers, a consistent gap exists between the complexity of rewards mechanics and user experience quality.
