Filipinos abroad work hard for every single peso they send home. And if there’s anyone who appreciates that sacrifice, it’s Piolo Pascual — who recently shared a smart #AlagangKabayan tip for our modern-day heroes overseas.
In a new Facebook video, Piolo highlights a simple but smart money move: use your BDO Kabayan Savings account with the BDO Pay app para tipid sa transaction fees.
BDO Pay is a secure everyday payment app where you can scan, send, and pay almost anywhere. Best of all?
No need to cash in — just link your BDO Kabayan Savings or any BDO account.
Once you receive money via BDO’s global remittance partners straight into your Kabayan Savings account…
Libre na ang sunod mong transfers to any BDO account using BDO Pay!
As Piolo puts it himself: “Free sa lahat ng BDO accounts, kabayan. Kaya download and try mo na!”
Small fees add up big
Piolo knows how OFWs love to support the family — pa-isa-isang padala here and there:
“₱2,000 para kay Mama, ₱3,000 kay Junior, ₱4,000 kay Ate, ₱5,000 kay Daddy…”
In his example, each bank transfer costs ₱15. Do four of those and you’re already spending ₱60 — and in real life, some services charge even more.
Maliit tingnan per transaction, pero kapag paulit-ulit? Lumalaki ang nababawas sa pinaghirapang pera.
That’s why Piolo reminds our kababayans:
“Kabayan, dahil bawat piso ay pinaghirapan mo, huwag sayangin sa pa-isa-isang fees.”
Alagang Kabayan. Alagang Sulit.
With BDO Kabayan Savings + BDO Pay, OFWs can keep more of what they earn, and families back home receive every peso they need.
