Send and Receive Money with PayPal using UnionBank EON Card
So you need a way to manage your money online? If you’re just starting out your affair on the internet just like me a long time ago, when I felt a need for the online payment system. I felt the urge for learning online payment when I had to buy domains from other companies based outside the Philippines like GoDaddy and as well for my web host provider Bluehost. So I started surfing the web to look for information about how to send and at the same time, receive money online; and I found out that the best way to do it is through PayPal. Most of the companies and even individual who earns money online use PayPal as a payment solution, so I did chose it.
Alright! So how do i start with this? Pinoy bloggers are using the local bank debit card of Unionbank’s EON card. I got my Unionbank EON card, sometime in 2007 and I was very grateful to those bloggers who shared their experiences on getting this internet payment system done. I learned from their mistakes that it became so easy for me not to commit the same and now, it’s time for me to share my slice of cake. So, here are the steps and important tips to avoid the hassle.
- APPLY. First, you need to find the nearest branch of UnionBank in your area. Don’t forget to prepare 500 pesos for the application fee, only 350 pesos will be asked for the card, but you will need a little more cash for the transaction fees during verification so an extra won’t hurt your pockets. Wait for 7 days or more for the processing of your card.
- SIGN UP. It’s time to sign up for your UnionBank EON card and a PayPal account. Be sure to enter real credentials, the ones written on your valid ID for easy verification later on and a valid email address is a must of course.
- VERIFY. Connect your UnionBank EON card and PayPal account. Log in to your PayPal account and find the verify link. You will be asked to put your 4 digit EXPUSE number that can be found on your transaction details. To get that, all you have to do is log in to your EON account and click your statement details. The PayPal 9-digit bank code for UnionBank of the Philippines is 010419995, to complete your bank withdrawal. There’s a small amount charge of ($1.95) for PayPal transaction fees. And you’re done!
You can now start using your PayPal account and tell your friends about it. I can say using a debit card for online transaction is safer than using a credit card, to avoid overspending or other credit card issues. Adding funds to your PayPal is easy as depositing in your EON account as they’re now connected, withdrawal can be done over the counter or to any ATM that accepts Visa card. The annual fee of 350 pesos will be automatically debited to your card so no worries. If you have any problem figuring this out just contact me or comment and I would be happy to help you.

Hi! Catherine,
Can you tell me what is the merchant name of your bills payment. “You cannot complete this action on the card you have selected. Please select another card.” you can edit your card by going to your profile then try Add/Edit bank account then add your bank code hope this helps.
I hav the same problem. I did add a bank account but when I make a purchase, it doesnt show the option to pay using the bank account that i added. the only option is the Eon card that I linked to paypal.
I have two questions:
1) P350 annual fee so what will happen if I have zero balance?
2) Can I transfer money from my EON card to Paypal? If yes, how?
Thanks!
Hi there
Nice questions you have but I hope I can answer it correctly.
1. you don’t have to worry about this, nothing will happen. the thing is if you don’t have any funds in there after a year then the card may be deactivated. you can deposit to unionbank to renew it.
2. once you have verified paypal account it’s connected with eon. you can use your paypal to buy anything online with the funds you have in eon card.
is my card number the number i would give to someone who wants to pay me thru eon?
it should be your account number or your paypal email address, its not a good practice to give away your card number.
it should be your account number.you can find for it below your account name on the card. its not a good practice to give out your card number.
Question 1: How true it is that I cannot use Eon for adding Pay Pal Fund?
Question 2: If it is true, then is it true that I can just link Eon with Pay Pal so it will just deduct the payment?
Question 3: How much will be the charges to my Eon card if I do this, the charge that will be done by Paypal and the charge by Eon (Union Bank) to my account? I saw 4.5%+Php15 in Paypal fees, will Eon charge for more?Question 4: Are there options to open Eon as Dollar/Peso Account? Will it matter?
Question: Can somebody`s Paypal can transfer money to my EON? or only my Paypal can transfer fund to my EON?
both of you must have verified PayPal account with that Paypal credits can be transferred and you can withdraw to your EON card.
Hi! Ask ko lng po kung kailangan ko pa bang mag antay ng ilang araw para ma enroll yung EON ko? Upon having my EON po kase triny ko E enroll pero “invalid date” po lumalabas. After 3days naman po ng itry ko ulit. “unable to log you in” na sinasabe.
Pls help me po. Thanks!
