  • Capital: a VASP that keeps customers' crypto in custody must have at least ₱50,000,000 in paid-in capital; one that does not, at least ₱10,000,000.BSP Circular No. 1108, s. 2021

Rules from the BSP Circular No. 1108, s. 2021 (issued January 2021).

If something goes wrong with Moneybees

  • If you have a problem with a transaction: complain to Moneybees first; every financial service provider must run a free consumer assistance desk for complaints. If you are not satisfied, take it to the BSP.RA 11765 sec. 8(f), in force since 2022
  • If a transaction is disputed or unauthorized: Moneybees must suspend interest, fees and charges on the disputed amount, or give a similar reasonable accommodation, until its investigation is done.RA 11765 sec. 8(f), in force since 2022

  • If someone asks you to invest through it: Moneybees's BSP licence covers Moneybees, not the people collecting money through it. SEC scam advisories have named licensed wallets and banks as the payment channel for unregistered schemes; check the scheme itself on Check with SEC.
