In an altogether celebratory mood, esteemed guests reminisced on Forest Lake’s key milestones such as the official launch of Libre Burol in Central Luzon, North Luzon, and Visayas; the expansion to Zamboanga North and Kidapawan; the opening of the Forest Lake Chapel in Iloilo; and the ever-growing presence of Premier Investors and new bank partners.

PalawanPay Makes Sending Money More Affordable with New PHP 7.50 Instapay Rate

PalawanPay is taking a major step forward in making digital financial services more affordable and accessible with the launch of its Php 7.50 Instapay fee promo. From June 15, 2025, to August 15, 2025, the Instapay Send Money fee on the PalawanPay app is only PHP 7.50— one of the most affordable Instapay fees in the market.

By lowering its Instapay Send Money fee to just PHP 7.50, PalawanPay is helping ease the financial burden on individuals, families, and small business owners who rely on digital tools for everyday transactions. Most banks and e-wallet providers in the country charge transfer fees ranging from PHP 10 to PHP 25 per transaction. While seemingly a negligible amount, these fees can quickly accumulate, especially for frequent users. With PalawanPay, users enjoy meaningful savings without sacrificing the convenience of real-time fund transfers.
