EastWest Encourages Pet Owners to "Save and Pawtect" This Summer

Many "pawrents" are choosing to stay indoors during the rising summer heat in order to stay cool, protecting their pets' safety as well as their own comfort. But it's crucial to keep in mind that for their general wellbeing, dogs still require frequent exercise and mental stimulation. Thus, while it makes sense to spend as little time outside as possible during the warmest times of the day, it is as important to schedule quick, safe excursions during the cooler morning or evening hours.

To better equip its customers with the goal of nurturing and protecting their beloved fur babies, EastWest Bank highlights its Save and Pawtect program. It’s a unique, first-of-its-kind offering perfect for pet lovers, providing comprehensive pet insurance when they open an EastWest Savings Account with a minimum balance of Php 100,000.

"Save and Pawtect" is designed to offer peace of mind to pet owners. With rising medical costs, the financial burden of veterinary care can be overwhelming. EastWest Bank’s program addresses these concerns by covering various emergencies, offering up to Php 50,000 in medical reimbursement for pets, including coverage for unfortunate events like death and burial. Eligible pets include dogs and cats aged between 5 months and 10 years, ensuring that beloved companions are covered when it matters most.

For the account holders, EastWest has considered their needs too. The insurance includes Owner’s Liability, Personal Accident, and Total Permanent Disability coverage, with benefits amounting to up to Php 50,000. Additional support, such as Accidental Medical Reimbursement and Burial Benefit in case of death due to an accident, is also included.

"Ensuring the health and safety of our beloved pets is not just a responsibility but a way of reciprocating the joy and love they bring into our lives. With 'Save and Pawtect,' we are excited to offer a financial product that honors this commitment by integrating significant pet care benefits with our trusted banking services. We believe that caring for your pet's future should be as straightforward and secure as managing your finances," said Ms. Ivy B. Uy, EVP and Head of Branch Banking Group, EastWest Bank.
