BCRemit Celebrates 10 Years of Sending Love Home

BCRemit marked a major milestone on August 8, 2026 with a 10th anniversary celebration to commemorate a decade of helping Overseas Filipinos Workers stay connected with their loved ones through fast, secure, and convenient financial services.

Since its beginnings in 2016, BCRemit has grown from a digital remittance service serving Filipinos in the United Kingdom into an international fintech platform serving Filipino communities across multiple markets. Founded by Oliver Calma and his son, Jose Angelo “Gio” Calma, the company has remained focused on a simple purpose: giving migrant workers a better way to send their hard-earned money home.

A Decade of Growth

Over the past 10 years, BCRemit has reached several important milestones.

One of the biggest was its continued international expansion. After building its presence in the UK and Philippine markets, BCRemit strengthened its European presence in June 2021 through BC Remittance S.L. in Spain. Its Spanish authorization is also passported across EU countries, giving BCRemit a regulatory foundation for serving customers across the European Union.

The company’s international expansion continued in Canada in January 2022 and the U.S. in August 2022. Taken together, these milestones show how BCRemit has built a regulatory and operational foundation spanning the UK, the Philippines, the European Union, Canada, the United States, and additional markets under development. BCRemit states that its services are now available in 24 countries, with more markets planned.

More Than Just Money Transfers

At the heart of BCRemit remains its international money-transfer service. Customers can use the BCRemit mobile app or website to send money to the Philippines, with options that include transfers to bank accounts and cash pickup. The platform also supports digital-wallet transfers, including GCash in supported markets.

But over the years, BCRemit has expanded beyond traditional remittances.

Through BCRemit Pay, customers abroad can pay selected bills and obligations directly in the Philippines, including property and corporate bills as well as government contributions such as SSS and Pag-IBIG. This gives Overseas Filipinos another way to manage responsibilities at home without having to send money to a relative first and ask them to make the payment.

Customers can also use the platform to top up mobile phones, while BCRemit continues to provide round-the-clock customer support for users who need assistance with their transactions. The combination of money transfers, bill payments, mobile load, digital-wallet payouts, and 24/7 support reflects BCRemit’s wider goal of making financial support for families in the Philippines simpler and more accessible.

Ten Years Built Around the Overseas Filipino

The August 8 anniversary celebration provided an opportunity to recognize how far BCRemit has come over the past decade and the people who made that journey possible, from its employees and partners to the customers who have trusted the company with their hard-earned money.

Most importantly, the milestone celebrates the OFW community that BCRemit was created to serve. Ten years after its launch, BCRemit continues to build on the same idea that inspired its beginnings: technology should make it easier, not harder, for Filipinos abroad to care for the people who matter most.

As BCRemit enters its next decade, the focus remains on expanding access, improving the remittance experience, developing useful financial services, and finding new ways to connect Filipino workers with home.

Ten years of remittances. Ten years of supporting families. Ten years of finding a better way to send love home.
