The BPI Express Mobile app, the most downloaded finance app
in the country, becomes even more accessible, as the Bank of the Philippine
Islands (BPI) today launches free access to the widely used app to Globe
Telecom’s over 38 million prepaid, postpaid and TM customers.
From April 30 to August 31, 2014, Globe subscribers will
enjoy having no data charges whenever they log on and transact using the BPI
Express Mobile app.
“BPI has always been at the forefront of introducing new
channels for our clients to access their accounts conveniently. The BPI Express
Mobile app, our latest innovation, is doing very well. Since its re-launch in
June last year, it has consistently been the number one downloaded finance app
in the country,” says SVP Manuel C. Tagaza, Electronic Channels Group Head.
“In line with the Bank’s new corporate slogan, ‘Make the
Best Happen,’ we not only want to offer the best mobile banking channel in the
country; we also want to make mobile banking even more accessible by providing
free access to all Globe and TM subscribers–no service fee to transact, no data
charges to access. This is definitely another milestone for us.”
“This partnership with BPI enforces our customers’ digital
lifestyles, where access to the mobile phone is not just about calls and texts,
but financial services as well. With the growing smartphone users, more
customers will definitely benefit from this wonderful service using our robust
mobile data network with the largest 4G coverage nationwide, giving subscribers
faster and seamless connectivity and making the banking experience more convenient
through the use of a smartphone,” says Daniel Horan, Senior Advisor for
Consumer Business at Globe. “From offering our subscribers free online
services, we want to get more Filipinos online and fully embrace the smartphone
and data revolution. With the free access to the BPI Express Mobile app,
banking has become easier, more convenient, and definitely more affordable.”
With just a swipe of the finger
Mobile banking has never been more accessible, with the
prevalent use of smartphones in the country. With the BPI Express Mobile app,
instead of queuing in bank branches, users can complete banking transactions
using their mobile phones in as fast as 30 seconds.
With the BPI Express Mobile app, people can pay their bills,
transfer money to other BPI clients, invest, and reload their prepaid
phone–wherever they are, whenever they want.
“The BPI Express Mobile app lets you track your finances
conveniently. And when you have a 24/7 view of where your money is going, you
can manage it easily and wisely,” explains Tagaza.
With the power of the Southeast Asia’s first bank in your
pocket, you can make your budgeting less of a chore and kiss unaccounted-for
expenses goodbye.
The power of banking within easy reach
This promo is another first for both BPI and Globe, with
both companies being at the forefront of innovation in banking and
telecommunications.
“Globe is the perfect provider to help us in this project
because their services have always been focused on helping people by bringing
them together through telecommunication,” says Tagaza. “We have the same aim,
that is, to help people live their lives better.”
