One of the easiest ways to transfer money to a BPI account is through the BPI Mobile Banking App.
Before I learned about this app, I would usually go to the BPI branch to deposit money even if it meant waiting in the queue for several minutes to even hours.
With BPI Mobile app, all I need to do is log in to my BPI Express online account, and as long as I have available funds, I can transfer to anyone very easily.
Unlike BPI Express Online or BPI online banking, I don’t need to enroll another person’s account and activate before I could transfer funds.
And that is exactly the reason why I like BPI mobile banking app’s transfer-to-anyone feature.
Just to clarify, BPI Express Online is the online banking platform of BPI, while BPI Express Mobile banking app is an application that you download on your smartphone or tablet and it has the Transfer-to-Anyone feature.
The very first thing that you need to do is to register or enroll your BPI account in BPI Express Online.
Once you’re registered, you will use the same username and password to log in to your BPI Mobile Banking app.
Steps to Download, Enable and Activate BPI Transfer-to-Anyone
Step 1 – Download the BPI Mobile Banking App from App Store (for iOS devices) or Play Store (for Android devices).
Step 2 – Login to the app using your BPI Express Online’s username and password
Step 3 – Once logged in, tap MORE, then choose Enable Transfer to Anyone and enter the all required info.
Step 4 – To activate Transfer-to-Anyone, choose Activate via Express Teller Machine.
Step 5 – Go to any BPI ATM Machine. Insert your ATM card and Enter your PIN. Select Special Services > Activate Enrollments > Express Online / Express Mobile App
Then it should say, EOL Activation Request Accepted. The Activation Code will be sent to your email within 5 minutes.
Step 6 – Check your email where your BPI account is linked. You should receive an email from expressmobile@bpi.com.ph with the Activation Code.
Step 7 – To activate your BPI Transfer-to-Anyone feature, enter the Activation code within 5 banking days from the date of filing.
