MANILA, Philippines — The holiday season is a time for giving, sharing and showing love—and for millions of Filipinos, that love is often sent through a padala.
To help you send malasakit (care) to your loved ones wherever they are in the Philippines, Palawan Group of Companies’ Palawan Express Pera Padala is made even more affordable with lower domestic remittance fees.
Until December 31, Palawan Express Pera Padal sukis can enjoy a 1% service fee on every domestic remittance send-out transaction. That means you only pay P1 for every P100 sent! For transactions of P20,001 or more, the regular service fee will apply. Customers who use PalawanPay can also enjoy a 1% fee when remitting to any Palawan branch via the app!
Whether it is for noche buena (Christmas Eve meal), aguinaldo (Christmas gift), or a simple, "thinking of you” gift, Palawan Express Pera Padala ensures that your money goes further—helping bridge the gift between you and the people you hold dearest! For us at Palawan Group, every padala is more than just money—it is a tangible reminder that love surpasses distance.
Palawan Group CEO Karlo Castro remarked, “Palawan Group is a proud 100% Pinoy company. We are run by Filipinos to serve fellow Filipinos, and deeply ingrained in our culture is a padala being more than just money—it’s a message of love, care and connection. Through our mas pinababang fees promo, we want to make it easier for families to send love this Christmas season, no matter the distance. Palawan Express Pera Padala has always been part of the Filipino family’s story, and this is our way of giving back—by helping them stay close even when they are physically far apart.”
Behind every padala, a story of love

Across thousands of Palawan Express Pera Padala branches and outlets across the Philippines, each padala carries out a common theme: love and sacrifice.
There’s a mother in Manila who sends her 13th-month pay to her parents in Cagayan so they can stock up the fridge as the grandchildren flock in for Christmas. We have heard of a son working in Cebu who sends a little extra to his siblings in General Santos City for their new shirts and slippers. There is also a grandmother in Bicol who uses padala service to send money for her grandchildren’s toys.
“These seemingly small but powerful acts of love and giving are what inspire us to keep doing what we do best—to become the bridge of malasakit among Filipino families, to remain mura, mabilis at walang kuskos-balungos (affordable, fast and hassle-free),” said CMO Bernard Kaibigan.
The peak time for sending pagmamahal at malasakit (love and care) is right here! With Palawan Express Pera Padala and PalawanPay, let remittance carry not just money but a piece of your heart this Christmas. Together, let us make every padala a reminder to your family that distance will never stop you from being part of their holidays, laughter and every salu-salo shared around the table.
