Mastercard Extends APAC Dining Programme to 1,300 Restaurants
The Mastercard Collection: Dining now offers cardholders discounts up to US$200 across 15 Asia Pacific markets, effectively doubling its current restaurant network.
Regional Dining Programme Grows
Mastercard is expanding its 'The Mastercard Collection: Dining' programme to approximately 1,300 restaurants across 15 markets in the Asia Pacific region. As of 13 October 2026, the initiative provides eligible cardholders with exclusive restaurant reservations and discounts worth up to US$200.
This move enhances Mastercard's consumer offerings in a key growth region, focusing on lifestyle benefits for its card base.
Doubling Restaurant Network
The expansion significantly broadens the programme’s reach. Previously, 'The Mastercard Collection: Dining' included around 650 participating restaurants. This latest initiative effectively doubles the network of venues available to cardholders, demonstrating a substantial commitment from Mastercard to the regional hospitality sector. The increased footprint is expected to boost engagement with the payment platform.
This expansion by Mastercard signals a strategic focus on driving consumer spending within the Asia Pacific's food and beverage sector. By offering tangible benefits such as discounts and exclusive access, the programme aims to stimulate demand for dining experiences.
For businesses in the hospitality industry, this could translate into increased patronage and revenue, while also intensifying competition among payment networks to provide attractive lifestyle perks to their customers in the region.
