Metrobank Partners with Moneygram International

The Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co. (Metrobank) has expanded its remittance service by partnering with leading global payments company MoneyGram International to extend its money transfer service to Filipinos abroad.
Metrobank was the first MoneyGram agent in the Philippines to implement AgentConnect, a platform integrating the money transfer service with the bank’s system.  With this platform, beneficiaries receive cash more quickly and conveniently at any Metrobank branch. OFW beneficiaries only need to complete and submit a 'receive' form, along with their valid IDs. Remittances may then be released either in Philippine Pesos or in US. Abroad, the OFWs may send money through MoneyGram’s global network of 233,000 agent locations in 191 countries and territories.

About this Site

This site aims to provide you with everything you need to know to send money to the Philippines. With about 10 million Pinoys living overseas, mostly to work, remittances to the Philippines remain to be the economy's main source of foreign fund. The World Bank estimated 17B USD in remittances by end of 2009, next only to India and China as the world's top recipient countries of remittances. I hope this site can provide a comprehensive guide and all the possible options for Filipinos living abroad and Foreigners living in the Philippines to provide for their families and loved ones in the most economical and convenient way.
