You need to register with a remittance provider service to send money to the Philippines. Once you’ve signed up, you’ll be prompted to:
- Provide basic contact information:
- Sign up with your full name, email address, mobile phone number, gender, birth date and address.

- We need specific details of your receiver in the Philippines based on the receive method. The receiver's full name, mobile number and email address are always required to send money.
- Pay for the transfer
- You will need a bank account, a debit card or a credit card to pay for the money transfer to the Philippines.
