#Bayad App

The full-service fintech company Bayad has obtained its license to operate as an Electronic Money Issuer (EMI) from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. The EMI license authorizes the company to deliver e-wallet services through its all-in-one "pera" transaction app, Bayad. In addition, customers can withdraw and add money to their Bayad wallets through online bank transfers and over-the-counter Bayad Centers. Bayad App customers can soon expect to pay over 1,000 types of bills — from utilities, insurance, government contributions and services, and more. In addition, the Bayad App will also enable other services such as QR payments, rewards, insurance, savings accounts, personal loans, and credit scoring. As per Bayad, they will continue to evolve as a full-service fintech company, offering a whole suite of financial products and services available through physical and digital channels. Along with the introduction of the Bayad app was the launch of Bayad Online, a web-based one-stop shop for all essential bills, which is an extension of the Bayad Centers that accept payment 24/7 and can be accessed globally.
