Traxion Tech Powers MannyPay, Pacquiao's BSP-Licensed Payment App
Traxion Tech Inc. will power MannyPay, the digital payments platform backed by boxing legend Manny Pacquiao. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas officially licensed the app to operate as a regulated payment application in the Philippines.
Key Takeaway
A BSP-licensed Pacquiao payment app goes live late 2025 after his prior crypto projects drew SEC warnings.
The Philippine-based fintech firm will provide the infrastructure for MannyPay, backed by boxing icon Manny Pacquiao. Traxion Tech Inc. CEO Ann Cuisia said the company is proud to power MannyPay with the same commitment to security, scalability, and performance that anchors its work across cooperatives, enterprises, and financial institutions nationwide.
Traxion Tech has built a track record of partnerships with major Philippine institutions. The company signed an agreement with Public Safety Savings and Loan Association Inc. to launch mobile banking for over 350,000 uniformed personnel from the Philippine National Police and Bureau of Fire Protection. Traxion Tech also partnered with Land Bank of the Philippines and Mount Carmel Rural Bank for digital banking expansion.
Pacquiao's previous Web3 ventures drew regulatory scrutiny. He invested in unregulated projects including Pac Token, tied to the Shiba Inu ecosystem, and an NFT project with LodiCoin that prompted a public warning from the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The MannyPay partnership positions Traxion Tech to tap into a consumer-facing payments market alongside established players like Maya and GCash, with the platform targeting Filipino consumers and businesses as digital payments adoption reaches new heights across the archipelago.
🇵🇭 What This Means for Filipinos: MannyPay carries BSP regulatory approval that Pacquiao's previous crypto ventures lacked, entering a Philippine digital payments market already dominated by Maya and GCash.
