How foodpanda’s pandapro makes January the smartest time to go PRO

The new year often starts with good intentions: setting savings goals, cutting back on expenses, and recovering from holiday spending. But as routines pick up again, daily demands do not slow down. Convenience remains essential, even as budgets feel tighter.

From January 22 to 31, Pro Weeks makes a timely return, giving pandapro subscribers access to exclusive, limited-time deals on food delivery, groceries, and pick-up orders. It reinforces that saving does not have to mean sacrificing convenience—especially as many continue to manage post-holiday expenses.

Pro Weeks makes regular food orders more rewarding through Pro-exclusive savings. pandapro subscribers can enjoy up to 50% off on select restaurants, including familiar favorites such as KFC, Shakey’s Pizza, CoCo Fresh Tea and Juice, and Gong Cha—turning daily meals, coffee breaks, and quick cravings into more thoughtful, budget-friendly choices.

For added flexibility, pick-up orders also come with extra value. pandapro subscribers can enjoy 10% off pick-up orders using the PICKUP code at select vendors, offering a cost-efficient option for those who prefer to collect their orders themselves.

Pro Weeks extends savings beyond meals and into household essentials. pandapro subscribers can get up to 30% off on pandamart, with discounts on trusted brands such as Nestlé, Unilever, and P&G. Subscribers can also enjoy ₱200 off on Puregold orders, valid with varying minimum spends. Take the hassle out of restocking your pantry and skip the supermarket trip entirely. Big savings, zero effort!

Beyond upfront discounts, cashback vouchers like PROCB (5% cashback on select food and grocery orders) and PROGROCER (10% cashback on pandamart and select supermarkets) add extra value—helping budgets go further over time.

foodpanda gives back to its pandapro subscribers through exclusive rewards that add value across food delivery, groceries, pick-up, dine-in, and more. During Pro Weeks, users can enjoy special subscription offers, including 30% off a 12-month pandapro plan with GOPRONA, alongside a limited-time 70% discount through PROWKND for select users on weekends.

To make the most of the short run, Pro subscribers can also use the PROWEEK voucher, which gives ₱200 off on food and grocery orders with varying minimum spends from January 26-31.

As the year begins and spending habits come back into focus, saving works best when it fits naturally into everyday life. With pandapro, convenience and value go hand in hand—turning good intentions at the start of the year into something more sustainable. With Pro Weeks available for a limited time, this window offers a clear opportunity to secure Pro-only savings while they last.
