The availability of the sent funds for claiming varies between the two banks. For BPI, the funds will be available 4 to 6 hours after the transaction is processed by the sender. For transactions processed beyond 1:30 PM, they will be available on the next day. On the other hand, for BDO, the funds will be available within 48 to 72 hours after processing.  

In light of the coronavirus outbreak and the community quarantine guidelines in your area, some Palawan Pawnshop branches may be closed and out of service until further notice. Some branches are open but operate with a skeleton crew and/or have shorter service hours. Check out Palawan Pawnshop’s Facebook page to get updates on the availability of your nearest branch.  With this new payout feature from BDO and BPI, sending money is now much more accessible, especially during the community quarantine. Make sure to use this feature so you can send help to your loved ones, even while staying at home.
