Introduction

Money remittance services are often used by Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) to send money back home to their loved ones. These funds can then be used for daily expenses, emergency purchases, or quality of life improvements. In developing countries, such as the Philippines, these remittances may serve as a primary source of income.

People in the Philippines can also use money remittance services to send funds to their relatives abroad. This is a secure way of paying for overseas tuition fees, investments, or travel expenses.

If you are looking for a reliable money remittance service provider, turn to none other than Cebuana Lhuillier. Having been in business for several decades, you can trust that we have the knowledge and experience to provide you with nothing but the best service.

Ways To Remit Money at Cebuana Lhuillier

Since we offer money remittance services through our physical locations and online platforms, you can be sure that we have a solution that works for you.

Cebuana Lhuillier Branches

If you are sending money domestically through one of our branches, visit the nearest location and fill out the PeraPadala form. You must also bring at least one valid ID so our branch personnel can verify your identity. Once you have paid the full amount and necessary fees, you will be given a control number, which the recipient will use to claim the cash. Our partners follow the same process for international remittance services.

Those claiming money must visit a Cebuana Lhuillier branch or international partner and provide the accomplished form, valid ID, and reference number.

eCebuana App

As part of our commitment to make our microfinance services more accessible to our clients, we created the eCebuana app. You can download the application on your mobile devices to access our online financial solutions, such as bills payment and money remittance services.

Through the app, you can transfer money from your Cebuana Micro Savings account to another. Recipients can then claim the cash at their nearest branch, which grants them a 20% reduction in fees. The app also allows you to send funds to other banks through Instapay. While International Remittance is not yet available online, with the recent partnership with Western Union, Cebuana Lhuillier clients may now receive international remittance via eCebuana app.

Step 1: Log in and input your 5-digit PIN code

Step 2: Go to Services Tab and select ‘Receive Money’

Step 3: Click the ‘Western Union’ logo

Step 4: Complete the details and add the 10 digits reference number from Western Union

Step 5: Read and agree on the terms and conditions and click confirm to proceed. You will receive a One-Time PIN via your mobile number.

Step 6: Transaction confirmation will be displayed in the app and will be sent via email. The amount received will be reflected on the users’ transaction list in their account balance. Wait for at least 5 minutes.

Cebuana From Home

If you want a quick and safe way to send cash domestically, Cebuana From Home is an excellent option for you. This service is especially convenient for those who are staying home amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

All you have to do is fill out the remittance form on the CebuanaFrom Home website and pay the required fees. Once your transaction is processed, you will receive a call or email from one of our agents to confirm your request. One of our payout delivery riders will then travel to your recipient’s location and directly deliver the cash.

If you prefer, you can also have the recipient pick up the money at one of our branches.
