Updated February 02, 2026:

This post lists down digital banks as those institutions that function as digital banks even if they are not officially categorized as Digital Banks by the central bank.

In 2020, then Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Governor Felipe Medalla approved recognizing “digital bank” as a new bank category in the Philippines. 

What is a Digital Bank in the Philippines?

As defined by the BSP, a digital bank largely offers financial products and services that are processed end-to-end through a digital platform and/or electronic channels with minimal to no reliance on physical touchpoints.

It could:

  • grant loans
  • accept savings and time deposits
  • accept foreign currency deposits
  • invest in readily marketable bonds and other debt securities, commercial papers and accounts receivable
  • act as a correspondent for other financial institutions
  • act as collection agent;
  • issue electronic money products
  • issue credit cards 
  • buy and sell foreign exchange
  • present, market, sell and service microinsurance products 

According to him, as the central bank looks to reach 50% of retail transactions shifting to digital, digital banks will play a role in promoting market efficiencies and offering more opportunities to Filipinos in terms of financial services. 

And after months of application and tons of preparation, the monetary agency has approved six digital banks, namely GOtyme, UnionDigital, Overseas Filipino Bank, Tonik Bank, UNObank, and Maya Bank.

Fast forward to October 2022, and the BSP gave the green light for these six digital banks to start their full operations. 

However, digital banks have begun to be associated with financial institutions with high interest rates. As such, we include them in this article.

Advantages of Digital Banks Than Traditional Banks 

One of the advantages of having a digital bank account is the fact that digital banks offer higher interest rates compared to traditional banks. 

In an interview with popular Youtuber, food vlogger, and cook Ninong Ry, then UnionDigital Bank Chief Executive Ubeh Henry Aguda shared that digital banks normally offer higher rates because they have lower operating costs than traditional banks. 

Thus, instead of maintaining physical branches, paying rent, and hiring more staff, they will just lend the savings to their customers. 

Moreover, he shared that their target market includes those who cannot go and transact with traditional banks during office hours, like market vendors and those who need to transact 24/7. 

This led some individuals to store their funds in a digital bank rather than the traditional one. In fact, Statistica reported that a 2022 survey on consumer payment behavior showed that about 80% of Filipinos expressed their interest in trying digital banking, especially for paying bills and fund transfers. 

The BSP also revealed that digital banks already reached 1.4 million transactions, amounting to ₱8.45 billion, for the first six months of 2022. 

More than a year after the central bank’s green light, let us take a look at the interest rates of the six digital banks and other financial institutions that offer online banking services.
