Celebrate the new year with a delightful musical time-travel experience! Spotify’s Playlist in a Bottle is back, and listeners can now go on a nostalgic journey by revisiting the tunes that captured their hearts a year ago.
Back in January 2023, Spotify invited listeners to create their musical time capsules by choosing songs that resonated with them at that moment in time. And starting today, January 4, fans will get those long-awaited capsules to look back on the music they loved and reflect on how their listening evolved through the year. Here’s how it works:
Choose “Claim Your Playlist” where you can look back at what songs were sealed in your musical time capsule.
Save and listen to your complete 2023 Playlist in a Bottle!
And that’s not all, users can also create an all-new Playlist in a Bottle that can’t be opened until 2025. Users will answer questions like “What song brings out my alter-ego?” and “What song describes my relationship status?” to help curate their playlist. This year, they’ll also be able to write a note for their future selves. Here’s how to do it:
Select where you want to store your playlist – it could be an actual bottle, a snowglobe, a flip phone, a tiny bird’s nest or a rice cooker… Even a dumpster!
Complete a series of song-inspired prompts like “A song that reminds you of your favorite person,” “A song your great-grandkids will be confused about,”“A song you put your friends on to,” and more!
Draw a note for your future self, capturing something you want to remember about this moment when your capsule is delivered next year.
Finally, “seal” your musical time capsule and post your #PlaylistInABottle sharecard to your favorite social channels!

Open and loving communication has always been the message of PLDT. Remember the iconic tagline “Suportahan Ta Ka” from the 2000s TV ad? It’s making a comeback on PLDT’s 95th anniversary campaign.
From the Suportahan Ta Ka TV ad produced by Ace Saatchi & Saatchi, actor and model Christian Vasquez played a young medical student who asked for his dad’s permission if he could shift his degree to Fine Arts. As he confessed his plans, his doctor dad said, “Kung saan ka masaya ti, suportahan ta ka [Whatever makes you happy, I’ll support you!].” This one line immediately became a hit in the 2000s.
Twenty-two years since the TV commercial was launched, Christian Vasquez comes back with a true-to-life story that makes a heartwarming sequel for the iconic ad. Christian, now with two children, faces the same circumstances with his eldest son. On PLDT’s 95th anniversary video, Christian shares his own personal story.
The video tells the story of Christian’s real son, Jason (who also stars in the video), who’s due to take the engineering board exam soon and is at the same time working in an IT
company. In the video, Jason is shown stressed and tired while reviewing for his board exam. In an online video call, Jason works up the courage to tell his dad Christian about his plan not to take the board exams and wishes to stay in his IT job.
Christian expresses his disbelief and tries to encourage Jason to take the exam as it will open more opportunities for him being an engineer. Just as he’s about to tell his son off, he suddenly remembers the lesson he learned from his own story from 22 years ago — that he must also show support for his son’s dreams.
At the end of the video, Christian emphatically tells his son that he supports his decision. From his dad’s “Suportahan ta ka,” Christian lets out the line “Palangga Ta Ka,” (which means “I love you”) highlighting his unconditional love and support for his son.
Parents may not always agree with their children’s decisions, but in the end, love and meaningful communication conquer doubt. In the video campaign, PLDT highlights its message of enabling meaningful connection through every generation. From grandparents to parents and their own children, PLDT enables people to make meaningful connections even when they are far apart. Or even when the family may not agree with your decisions — love prevails.
On its 95th anniversary celebration, PLDT reminds families of this powerful message and the importance of love, respect, and kindness in connecting with each other.
In a rapidly evolving market, customer experience is becoming the cornerstone of business success. Recent studies have highlighted the undeniable importance of providing exceptional customer service. Notably, a PwC study indicated that customers are willing to pay a premium for top-notch service, while 32% would abandon a brand after just one poor experience. Moreover, according to the Temkin Group, loyal customers are significantly more likely to repurchase, forgive mistakes, and refer a brand.
In response to these insights, GCash for Business hosted the “Experience Easy” Business Summit, aimed at equipping Philippine companies of all sizes with the tools needed to meet the rising expectations of the local market.
“Customers have their own point of view of what they expect from brands they interact with, and they’re not shy about letting everyone know. This forces businesses to face two realities: they can learn directly from their customers what they need, but they can also be immediately called out for unfavorable service,” said Kate Cruz, Head of B2B Marketing. “As a finance super app with millions of users, GCash is uniquely positioned to know exactly what Filipinos want to help businesses create enjoyable and relevant experiences for their customers at every touchpoint.”
Experience Easy with GCash for Business
With mobile usage accounting for about 70% of internet traffic and with a projection to increase in the coming years, businesses have ample opportunities to offer meaningful experiences to their customers. However, with countless channels to choose from, creating such experiences can become overwhelming and expensive.
With a multitude of financial products and services available for every Filipino, GCash for Business makes it easy for companies to effectively engage multiple customer touch points and address critical challenges to achieve specific goals.
Experience Easy and Preferred Payments
The Philippines is already considered as one of the largest and quickly expanding eCommerce markets in the world, and the fight for market share in this space will only get tougher. As a consumption-driven market, Filipinos are also motivated to purchase more when there are less barriers to deal with.
With GCash for Business, companies can give their customers a seamless experience with every transaction for an already captured market of over millions of users. Merchant transactions can be conveniently and quickly done online via Webpay,or in-store via Scan-to-Pay, allowing customers to pay however and whenever they want.
To also avoid long queues, Scan to Order was also recently introduced wherein customers can now order directly on the GCash app. They can easily skip the queue, order and pay directly on the app and go straight to the store for pick up – improving the overall shopping experience.
Experience Easy and Relevant Advertisements
With customer loyalty becoming more elusive than ever, personalization has become a key strategy for all businesses. Customers have high expectations from businesses to know their interests by offering relevant recommendations and targeted promotions.
With GCash for Business Ad Solutions, companies can easily create tailor-fit and timely messaging based on customer behavior. They also have easy access to promo solutions that include affinity targeting, geo-targeted ads, and hyper-AI ads to reach exactly who they want to reach when they need to be reached.
Experience Easy and Flexible Installment Options
Every transaction and every sale is valuable in a highly competitive environment, and it’s up to each merchant to help customers on a tighter budget make the purchase. When customers deal with less financial burden every time they buy, businesses can convert more visits to sales while giving customers freedom to manage their transactions in the easiest way possible.
For eligible GCash users, businesses can offer different flexible payment plans and options via GGives, the easy-to-pay installment plan, or GCredit, an extended credit line. Whether online or in-store, merchants can take advantage of lending solutions fit for their business model and their customers.
Experience Easy and Efficient Disbursements
Good customer experience should be carried end-to-end, which happens beyond the point where customers receive their products or services. While businesses tend to focus on putting their offers on the market, customers continue to expect positive engagement long after the transaction is completed.
GCash for Business Funds Disbursement Solutions gives businesses the flexibility to complete online or offline transactions in various ways. This also eliminates the hassle and associated risks of cash handling especially when it comes to large payments. Coupled with upgraded incentives such as customizable vouchers or even the availability of a GCash Card, businesses can easily facilitate convenient and rewarding experiences for end customers throughout their entire purchase journey.
“There are many ways to engage a customer – the trick is knowing how to do it right,” said Luigi Reyes, VP for Commercial Sales and Operations. “Although there are many technologies available, we focus on providing our clients and partners with the essential elements that customers value the most – speed, convenience, and personalization. With GCash for Business, both businesses and their customers can benefit from an easy-to-use platform that streamlines transactions and enhances their overall experience.”
Companies have the opportunity to engage and retain their customer base by fulfilling their demands. With the increasing popularity of digital payments and online transactions, enterprises in the Philippines can now offer easy and flexible payment options and rewards, both online and offline, to millions of Filipinos through GCash for Business.
GCash for Business offers Philippine enterprises a valuable opportunity to enhance customer engagement. By leveraging digital solutions that prioritize user experience, businesses can stay ahead in an increasingly competitive market.
