"
The partnership supports ABS-CBN's corporate mission and its goal of bringing Filipino culture to the global Kapamilya population . "At ABS-CBN, our mission is to serve Filipinos wherever they are," says Eugenio Lopez IV, Digital Head of ABS-CBN
. "Teaming up with OTT Remit as a reward partner allows us to extend our reach and impact, bringing Kapamilyas worldwide closer together."
