BPI Deposit Machine: How to Deposit Money to BPI Account Using BPI Cash Accept Machine

Most people go to the BPI branch to deposit money either to their own BPI account or to other people’s BPI accounts.

They usually spend a lot of time waiting in line – first, to get a queue number, and second, to wait for their number to be called or to be flashed on the screen – before they could make their cash deposit transaction.

Do you know that there’s a better and faster way of depositing money at BPI?

Yes there is, and it’s through the BPI Cash Accept Machine (CAM) which is also known as the BPI Deposit Machine.

BPI Deposit Machine Review

I have been using this facility for more than five years now and I’m so happy with this ‘lil machine.

It’s really a time-saver for me.

Yes, I do most of my BPI fund transfers online, but when I need to fund my BPI account, I just go to a branch that has a cash deposit machine, and I deposit money almost instantly.

This is how this useful machine allows me to skip the long lines – in a good way.

What to do if the BPI Deposit Machine is OFFLINE 

Just like any other machines out there, there are times when the BPI Deposit Machine is offline.

Although it happens rarely, I always have a back-up plan.

My first secret to depositing money fast is by using the BPI Deposit Machine.

My other secret (in case the machine is offline) is by setting an appointment for my deposit transaction using BEA Online!

Instead of waiting for several minutes and even hours at the branch, I can deposit money easily on my reserved schedule.
