#recurring payments

In addition to personal finance features like easy bill payment and low-cost transfers, Manny Pay also supports businesses through services such as Mass Payouts, recurring payments, and online collections. According to the BSP, the decision follows the implementation of zero fees for small merchant payments and the establishment of a pricing framework for person-to-person electronic fund transfers. The BSP said the new framework supports its broader goal of promoting digital payments, financial inclusion, and innovation while ensuring adequate consumer protection and regulatory oversight. The BSP said the updated rules aim to create a more sustainable pricing environment for digital payments while ensuring consumers continue to have access to fast, secure, convenient, and affordable electronic fund transfer services. The platform has since expanded into a broader digital financial ecosystem offering payments, lending, and other financial services to consumers, merchants, and enterprise partners. 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. Joel de Vera, BPI's head of strategy, products and support for institutional banking, said demand for secure, real-time, and affordable international payments continues to grow as more Filipinos engage in global activities.
