Here’s How You Can Get Paid to Travel With ShopBack Travel Club

We might be almost halfway through the year, but it’s never too late to start planning your 2023 trips. With revenge travel continuing to skyrocket, many Filipinos are going out of town (be it to local or foreign destinations) to live their most adventurous life. So, while you’re at it, why not show off your amazing content and possibly get cool travel-related prizes, too? 

If this sounds like your jam, then we have news for you: ShopBack, Asia-Pacific’s leading shopping, rewards, and payments platform, recently launched the ShopBack Travel Club! It’s an influencer showdown and user content contest, where the winners will get a ton of exclusive travel perks as part of the “club.” 

The TripZilla team had the opportunity to attend the launch last 23 May at the Draper Startup House in Makati. In between enjoying the food, cocktails, and increasingly competitive games, ShopBack gave media and personalities the lowdown on Travel Club. So, we’re here to give you all the details about this exciting campaign!
