How to Register in BPI Online Banking 2020

BPI Online banking is a very useful facility, especially now that we are on Enhanced Community Quarantine.

It’s not easy go out of the house and go to the bank to do our banking transactions. Besides, not all branches are open, and expect long lines when you go to the bank.

If you have previously registered in BPI Online Banking before the Covid-19 pandemic started, chances are, you are now enjoying the benefits of online banking at the comfort of your home.

Like me, I can easily pay my utility bills, credit card bills, transfer money, and even buy load  online using my BPI Online account. It’s very convenient.

But if you are not registered yet and you want to give it a try, this blog post is for you.

If you prefer watching the tutorial, you may watch this video below on how to register in BPI Online Banking.

Steps for BPI Online Banking Registration

Step 1

• Go to bpi.com.ph
• Click Login.
• Click Register Now.

Step 2

Choose the type of BPI account that you want to enroll, then click Continue.

• • ATM based BPI, BPI Family Savings, or BPI Direct deposit account
  • Passbook-based BPI or BPI Family Savings deposit account
  • BPI Europe Account
  • BPI Credit Card Account
  • BPI Debit  Card Account

(Update June 1, 2020: The BPI Online Registration page has been updated. Please follow the instructions on screen and enter the required details to complete your registration.)

In my latest experience with BPI Online registration, it took me a while to get through this step because it won’t take my BPI debit card number.

I called BPI Hotline 8-891-0000 and I was given a special link for the registration by the BPI representative which finally allowed me to proceed to the next steps.

I tried that same link but it goes to the main page of BPI website now, so maybe they have already updated the registration page and it should work now.

But if you still have problems registering your card number, you may call the BPI hotline 8-891-0000 too.

What if I can’t activate my BPI Online Enrollment? 

Most new users are having a hard time activating their BPI Online Enrollment because of the lockdown.

I’m not sure if BPI has come up with alternative options to allow users to register and activate BPI online banking, but if the process is still the same, then you really have to follow the instructions.

You either go to the bank personally or mail your online enrollment form to BPI’s Office. Then, activate it at the ATM machine, which means you still have to go out.

After you registered and activated your BPI Online banking account, you can now login and access your bank account online, anytime and anywhere you are.

2. Click Login.
3. Enter your Username and Password.
4. Once you’re logged in, click My Accounts.
