It was only in the middle of 2007 when I opened a Paypal account. But I never had a chance to use it to receive cross-border payments because Paypal Philippines did not have its full service until the last quarter of the year. Imagine how many online users in the Philippines were happy about the development.

There have been questions about where to get Philippine bank codes that Paypal would honor. And since Paypal is very new, some bank staff members don’t have an idea which code to give Paypal users. Maybe out of jest, a member of an online forum likened it to cracking the Da Vinci code. He he.

Behold, the search for the code has now ended and you can now withdraw your Paypal millions from any Philippine banks. Paypal has released its official list of Philippine bank codes.

I won’t say happy shopping – just keep on saving.
