Tahweel Al Rajhi leverages on its direct relationships with four major banks in the Philippines: BDO/EPCI Bank; Metro Bank; Bank of the Philippine Islands; and the Philippines Land Bank. Together these banks constitute the largest network of bank branches, covering the country and enabling remittances to be sent and received with utmost efficiency.
In addition, Tahweel Al Rajhi has recently partnered with Trans-Fast Remittance LLC as part of its continuous development plan.
