Aimed at enhancing the lives of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families, the Palawan Group of Companies proudly introduces a revolutionary feature in its PalawanPay eWallet app, allowing users to claim international remittances anytime and anywhere. This development is set to redefine convenience and security in the remittance landscape, making it easier for OFWs’ hard-earned money to reach their loved ones promptly and securely.
OFWs, recognized as modern-day heroes, contribute significantly to the Philippine economy, shaping the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and foreign exchange earnings. Their remittances, amounting to at least 10% of the national GDP, play a vital role in sustaining households, meeting basic needs, supporting education, providing shelter, and fostering entrepreneurial endeavors.
Palawan Express Pera Padala (PEPP), a service under the Palawan Group of Companies, has long been a trusted bridge ensuring that the earnings of OFWs are securely and promptly received by their families. With over 6,000 branches and authorized agents nationwide and more than 55 international remittance partners, PEPP stands out as a leading international remittance pick-up center in the Philippines.
The Palawan Group of Companies, staying true to its brand promise of “mura, mabilis at walang kuskos balungos na serbisyo” (affordable, fast, and hassle-free service), now integrates its international remittance services seamlessly into the PalawanPay eWallet app. This latest feature offers a more accessible, fast, secure, and efficient method for OFWs’ families to claim remittances from international partners such as Remitly, Japan Remit, Instant Cash, Uniteller, and IntelExpress.
The PalawanPay app streamlines the claiming process, enabling users to receive remittances online with just a few clicks. By selecting the “Claim Remittance” option, choosing the “International Remittance Partner,” inputting the “Claim Code” and other necessary details, reviewing the information, and confirming the transaction, recipients can effortlessly claim their funds. This service, powered by Perahub, emphasizes the company’s dedication to forging partnerships that ensure operational efficiency and excellent customer service.
In addition to the unparalleled convenience, PalawanPay prioritizes the security and well-being of its users. Those choosing to claim their remittances via the PalawanPay app are entitled to free Kabayan ProtekTODO Insurance. The insurance covers claims ranging from PHP1,000 to PHP15,000 for one (01) month, with coverage of up to PHP20,000. For claims exceeding PHP15,001, the insurance is valid for six (06) months with coverage of up to PHP25,000.
To experience the easy, secure, and convenient way to receive remittances, download the PalawanPay app from the Apple Store, Huawei App Gallery, or the Google Play Store. As the Palawan Group of Companies continues to redefine convenience and security, claiming remittances has never been more straightforward, whether through the PalawanPay app or Palawan Express Pera Padala outlets.
