There are countless stories spun around the web of Philippine stardom, but none more interesting and fulfilled as the story of pop princess Sarah Geronimo. Starting from humble beginnings, Sarah’s climb to stardom was a slow ascent with hard work and determination. She got her big break after winning in Star for a Night. After that, the spotlight was quick to follow. (read more below)
But Sarah’s story wasn’t your typical hard-knock life tale of rags to riches. It took every ounce of her vocal cords, as well as her determination to succeed for Sarah to get to where she now stands.

It is this quality that made Cebuana Lhuillier choose Sarah as its official spokesperson.

They can also avail of discounted rates at Le Soleil de Boracay.
Cebuana Lhuillier customers can get the card for free by accumulating points. If they want to start earning points immediately, Cebuana customers also have the option to purchase the Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card. Because this program is the first in the industry, pawners and remitters now have more reason to switch to Cebuana Lhuillier.

A card’s weight in gold
In the modern world, it seems that the smaller the item, the higher its value. This is true with high-powered devices such as mobile phones, laptops, and digital cameras mainly because of their technology. Today, we are seldom presented with something whose material is not expensive but is worth a whole lot more.
Credit cards are a fine example. But in a world teetering between the current innovation and the next, there comes a need to stand out and go beyond the regular services in a selected line of business.
This is where Cebuana Lhuillier separates itself from the rest. The first in the industry, the Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card is a pioneering program that gives customers an extension of the brand’s already great service.
Everything starts at the counter. The Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card contains customer information, eliminating the need to fill out forms for most transactions done in Cebuana Lhuillier branches.
Each transaction with the Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card earns points that can be redeemed later on. Through this innovative program, customers of Cebuana Lhuillier can experience the wide reach of the P.J. Lhuillier Group of Companies.
Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card holders are also entitled to discounts from the other PJ Lhuillier companies, such as discounts on jewelry items from all branches of Just Jewels as well as Phiten accessories. If customers fancy travel, they can get a discount on rooms from one of Boracay’s premier hotels, Le Soleil de Boracay.
This shows that Cebuana Lhuillier is not just a pawnshop, but a brand that caters to its customers’ lifestyle. Being the first in its kind in the pawning business, the Cebuana Lhuillier 24K Loyalty Card rewards frequent customers with perks that will fit their lifestyle.
