Hi guys!

I just wanted to share this article that discusses about the cheapest way to send money to our country.
I hope I'm in the right section to post this, so mods please transfer this thread na lang to the right place if nasayop ko. Thanks!

The article is good if you have parents, relatives or friends who are living in other countries and wish to send money diri sa Philippines.

It doesn't only talk about the cheapest method(s), but it also shows the hidden currency exchange fees when we send money using their service.

Example:
If you send money using Western Union from US to Phil - total cost kay $36 using their "fast" method unya $28 if "slow"

Since naa ni sa Business Section, i assume business-to-business ni nga transfer.

Table here:

Spoiler! 

Although nindot ang choices nga gihatag ana nga link, most businesses & companies would go to trusted methods or establishments to do money transfers. I would do the same if naa ko bizz transactions sa gawas. I would use bank transfer or wire or TT jud.

Pero if we talk about OFW remittances, aw, naa jud ta'y daghang options.
Kay kung asa naa'y OFW, most often, naa jud mga affordable & effecient remittance centers.
.. and if this is for OFW jud, adto siguro ni sa Overseas nga sub-section sa Career Center.

Thanks for your reply @jacdi
Actually, ako lang siya gi-post under sa Business section since I am not aware of the sub-categories sa Istorya, really need to explore more sa site - thanks for the tip jacdi

As for the topic sa blog, I think that was intended for all people nga magpadala ug kwarta padong sa atoa (OFWs, freelancers/online workers/, B2B). Nindot lang is, detailed ang pagka discuss about sa "hidden fees" which is "hidden" gyud sa atoa when we use their service, heheh..

I always used transfast kay gamay rag service charge pangayo and in less than 30 mins makuha na dayon sa imong family sa Pinas.

the lowest transfer fee now is using bitcoin almost no charge at all. i think less than 2usd just for the conversion rate.

I agree, Bitcoin is becoming more popular even in our country
