Filipinos in Japan continue to enjoy seamless and secure remittance services, thanks to the powerful partnership between BDO Unibank, Inc. and Japan’s Seven Bank. Arianne Matucading and Den Mojica, two overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) based in Japan, have experienced firsthand the convenience and security of transferring money back home, making their financial support for their families smooth and worry-free.

Matucading, a sales executive who has been working in Japan for 11 years, praised the collaboration for simplifying money transfers. “Sending money to my family is stress-free, thanks to the reliable services of BDO and Seven Bank. When I needed to urgently send funds for a hospital bill, Seven Bank’s fast service allowed me to send money immediately, and BDO made sure my family could easily withdraw it. Whether it’s an emergency or regular support, I trust their dependable partnership,” she said.

Mojica, a customer service officer in Japan, also commended the seamless process. “The Seven Bank app is reliable and easy to use, and the staff is always accommodating. Some of my relatives, who have limited access to ATMs, can receive my remittances effortlessly through BDO’s cash payout services,” she shared.
