Seamless Onboarding for Overseas Filipinos
For Filipinos abroad who may not have traditional bank accounts, Maya offers a solution. Through a partnership with PLDT Global, Filipinos can obtain a FREE Philippine-based virtual mobile number (SVN) from the TINBO (Tindahan ni Bossing) website. This allows them to register for a Maya account and receive One-Time PINs (OTPs) for secure transactions.
Simplified International Remittances
Sending money back home is now easier and safer for overseas Filipinos. Maya allows users in over 200 countries and territories (including USA, Canada, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, UK, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea) to send money directly to the Maya accounts of their loved ones in the Philippines, through any international remittance partner.
