Save Money with BDO Pay
Here’s a money-wise tip from actor Piolo Pascual for Overseas Filipinos: Subukan ang winning combo ng BDO Kabayan Savings at BDO Pay para makatipid sa transaction fees.
BDO Pay is an everyday payment app that lets you scan, send, and pay almost anywhere. No need to cash in—simply link your BDO Kabayan Savings and other BDO accounts or credit cards.
Isang remit lang from any of the remittance partners of BDO Remit abroad to your Kabayan Savings, libre na ang sunod na padala to any BDO account using BDO Pay. “Free sa lahat ng BDO accounts, kabayan, kaya download and try mo na,” advises Piolo.
Take an Alagang Kabayan tip from Piolo Pascual. Para tipid sa fees, i-try na ang BDO Kabayan Savings and BDO Pay combo.
Taking Advantage of this Banking Feature
These practical tips were shared by the award-winning actor in a recent Facebook video. In the 30-second clip, Piolo notes how Overseas Filipinos generously support their families back home—often through multiple remittances: “P2,000 para kay Mama, P3,000 para kay Junior, P4,000 para kay Ate, tapos P5,000 kay Daddy.”
In Piolo’s example, each remittance and transfer costs P15, so that’s P60 for the four transactions. But in real life, some remittance services might even cost more. Each transaction fee might seem small, but they accumulate. “Kabayan, yung mga transaction fee na ganyan, akala mo lang maliit. Pero pag sunod-sunod at napaparami, it adds up.”
That’s why Piolo encourages Overseas Filipinos to be smart savers: “Kabayan, dahil bawat piso ay pinaghirapan mo, huwag sayangin sa pa-isa isang fees.”
Alagang Kabayan. Alagang Sulit. Para kay Piolo, sulit ang bawat piso na pinaghirapan basta may BDO Kabayan Savings at BDO Pay ka at ang pamilya mo.
