Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) is set to introduce international money transfers through its mobile banking app, following a partnership with Visa aimed at making cross-border transactions faster and more affordable for Filipinos. The new service, expected to launch by the first quarter of 2027, will use Visa Direct, Visa's real-time payments platform, allowing BPI customers to send money overseas directly from the BPI app. The service is expected to become available to more than four million active BPI mobile app users. Customers can apply for BPI products, deposit and withdraw funds, and perform cash-out transactions at participating locations.
