Here's the latest on Philpay after a long time of silence. No, we didn't stop our money transfer service while our blog was down. We've extended our services in many ways.
Now we have two separate services:
- www.philpay.com -- provides you with a direct payment facility to overseas recipients/sellers. If you're paying an eBay seller or just want to purchase an item over the internet without using a credit card, use this Philpay service. We provide the following payment facilities:
- Check -- US dollar check drawn from Bank of America (guaranteed funds for 90 days)
- Money Order -- US dollar money order drawn from either Amscot Financial, Moneygram, or USPS (good as cash and may be sent to non-U.S. recipients)
- Paypal -- US dollar online payment direct to your eBay seller or Paypal seller (just provide your recipient's Paypal email address or his checkout URL)
- www.philpay.net -- provides you with an online payment facility to domestic recipients/sellers. If you just want to send money to someone in the Philippines, use this facility. For example, you use G-Cash and your recipient uses Smart Money, Philpay serves as your online link to send money from your G-Cash to your mom's Smart Money. Or, for example, you own an account at Metrobank and your recipient owns an account at Equitable PCI, you don't have to go to Equitable to make a deposit and pay for an over-the-counter regional deposit. Just call Metrobank and make a free over-the-phone transfer to your Philpay account, then go to www.philpay.net and make an online instant transfer to your recipient's Philpay account.
