How to Send Money through Money Padala by TrueMoney

Sending money to loved ones is just one of the responsibilities of many Filipinos to their family.

I, for example, send money monthly to my parents who are based in the province, for their personal expenses. They don’t ask or oblige me or my other siblings to give them money, but it’s just a fulfilling and wonderful feeling to share with them even a small amount of cash for whatever purpose they may have.

Both my parents are pensioners of SSS and they both have ATM cards, but it takes more than an hour for them to go to the main town where they can withdraw money. There may not be a fee (or just a minimal fee) when withdrawing cash from the ATM machine, but going there will cost each of them P100 for a one-way fare.

This is the very reason why remittance centers are truly a huge help when sending and receiving money. They’re more accessible and receivers don’t have to pay to claim or receive their remittance.

Thanks to the many remittance centers and services that are available right now.

What is TrueMoney Money Padala?

One of them is Money Padala by TrueMoney. Launched just less than a year ago, TrueMoney is one of the newest remittance services in the Philippines that offers a fast, affordable, and secure way to send and receive money.

This way, remittance services will be more accessible and affordable to all Filipinos.

TrueMoney is Affordable

“Right now, we are focused on everyday transactions like cash remittances, bills payments, and mobile reloading but at affordable rates for the average Filipino. Unlike other remittance centers that charge as much or even higher than 10 percent of the total amount, TrueMoney’s fee is 2 percent,” Marzan said.

TrueMoney is Accessible
