Yes, you can transfer funds to other banks in the Philippines using their QR code.

You can either upload or scan their QR code, just like how you would do with a BPI account.

Scanning will recognize the QR codes from Allbank, AUB, BDO, Card Bank, Chinabank, Landbank, Maybank, Metrobank, Paymaya, PNB, PSB, Queen City Development Bank, RCBC, Robinson’s Bank Corporation, Rural Bank of Guinobatan, Starpay Corporation, Sterling Bank, and Unionbank.

Only BDO, Chinabank, Metrobank, RCBC, and Unionbank allow the saved image QR code uploading.
