My debit card has expired and I needed an extra card for my mom to use. I decided to create the #SaveUp from BPI and it was fairly easy to use (heck, even my mom could have completed this on her own!).
Here are the easy steps to get your own:
1. Download the BPI Mobile app - click here for Android and iOS.
2. Once downloaded, let's create your account by clicking Open an account now.
3. On the next screen it will ask you what you plan to set up select Create a bank account.
