Opening a bank account has a lot of advantages. Banks do not only keep your money in a safety vault but also gives you an ease of having financial transactions (online purchasing, paying bills, money transfer to other bank accounts).
Having a bank account can also help you automate your savings, get paid instantly through money transfer, and seize investment opportunities online.
Above all? It saves you from two terrible T’s that could exploit your cash – Thieves and Termites!
Still, some people still prefer keeping their bags of cold cash under their beds or in their bamboo coin banks. It is either they’re afraid to entrust their money on banks, or they’re just too lazy to open an account – Kidding! :D
Or maybe, they're not aware of how much it costs to open a bank account.
NOTE: You will not be paying anything for the creation of the bank account itself. The cost for account opening will only serve as your initial deposit or maintaining balance may it be for ATM or for passbook. Don’t you worry for you can still withdraw such amount anytime.
Consider opening a bank account with the top banks in the Philippines:
| Bank | ATM | Passbook |
| BDO (Banco de Oro) | P 2,000 | P 5,000 |
| Metrobank (Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company) | P 2,000 | P 10,000 |
| BPI (Bank of the Philippine Islands) | P 500 | P 10,000 |
| Land Bank of the Philippines | P 500 | P 10,000 |
| PNB (Philippine National Bank) | P 3,000 | P 10,000 |
| Security Bank | P5,000 (w/ passbook) | P5,000 (w/ ATM) |
| Chinabank | P 2,000 | P 5,000 |
| DBP (Development Bank of the Philippines) | P 500 | P 5,000 |
| Unionbank (Union Bank of the Philippines) | P 100,000 | P 100,000 |
| RCBC (Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation) | P 500 | P 5,000 |
| EastWest Bank (East West Banking Corporation) | P 2,000 | P 5,000 |
Don't have a bank account yet? You might want to visit one of the nearest bank branches from you and start opening one!
