In his speech, Jorden said: “Our ambition is to give our guests an ecosystem or platform that is not just about us (NWR). It’s about being able to redeem those points in a variety of different outlets, from convenience all the way through luxury retail, whether onsite or offsite. We just want this to be the most powerful card our guests can carry in their wallets.”

Among the EPIC card’s major highlights is the strengthening of the cooperation between NWR and flag-carrier Philippine Airlines, which now allows the conversion of EPIC points to PAL Mabuhay Miles and vice versa. Alliance Global Group CEO and Newport World Resorts Chair Kevin Tan along with PAL President and COO Stanley Ng were both on hand during the event to formalize the deal.
