What bank in the Philippines is best matched with paypal?

We've got the same problem. My paypal is unverified, too. The only bank i linked for me to be able to transfer funds from paypal is landbank. But im planning to get a unionbank eon soon =)

I have an EON account from Unionbank and I use that to get verified at paypal and withdrawing my paypal money conveniently.

Letran have said it and the only thing i can add up is that the Union bank Eon cyber Account is the only atm account that can make you verify your paypal plus the fact that it zero maintaining balance and only 50 pesos deduction when you transfer your money from paypal unlike the credit card or other bank that deducts 250. Aside from that it only cost 350 to open. So if your only problem is to verify your paypal then you can open an Eon Cyber account and then link it to your paypal and once you get verified then you can link as many bank accounts you have afterwards.

i suggest BPI, they have a prepaid card called ecash o also their credit card, and ecash you don't need to maintain balance on it, it is only 150 to open an ecash card and you can get it after 24 to 48 business hours,you can add that to your paypal account, but make sure that once paypal will verify the card you must have atleast $1.95 on the card because paypal will charge that amount first before you can verify or confirm the card,

Hi, the best bank in the philippines for your paypal is BDO(banko de oro) ,,you may have an open acount in this bank as low as 1000 remaining balance.. the paypal acount will be the one to send your money in your bank acount so dont be confuse,, God bless Hope it may help

june a friend of mine used SmartMoney debit card to verify his paypal account. I am planning to use the same :)

hi barbie, just checking, are you now a verified user on paypal?if not,i have posted a topic on how to verify a paypal philippines account.

open an account with Union Bank, at any branch. thats the easiest way to open a paypal account. so good luck to you. :P

Hi. You can try Union Bank. Union Bank really has this kind of service, specifically for Paypal. It is the EON account. It is recognized by Paypal. You can ask them for further information. I also plan to open an account here once I will encash my Paypal money next year. I think it is around 300pesos for the annual fee for Union Bank. As for the minimum maintaining balance, I think it is zero for the EON account. Hope this helps a bit.

hey june, I actually can't answer your question, cause I have the same problem. lol. I only have a BPI account, I know I can transfer money from paypal to BPI, but my problem is, I don't know how much would be the fee per transaction. is there anyone out here who knows how much would they charge me? I am also thinking of getting a unionbank eon account.. Though BPI has just announced that they would also have an internet account, just like the eon account, I'm just not sure what are the requirements for it though,.

I agree with kent and letran. Unionbank is very useful and is made for paypal for the Filipinos

Hello barbiejune, You can open an account to Unionbank the EON card to withdraw your earnings in paypal or if you have your credit card, you can verify it there. For EON bank, you can pay 350php for the card and you can withdraw your paypal earnings there.

It's great to see another Filipino in the crowd. I don't use PayPal much but we do have a debit card from Bank of America that we never had problems with. There isn't a transfer fee or anything like that since you are using the debit card as it is meant to be used. There is a delay though when you go from PayPal to the bank account which can take up to 3 to 5 business days.
