Siguro if extra from the extra money like alam mo yun may secured kana emergency funds so may extra money kapa na bukod sa for investment mo is may tinatawag akong "extra extra money" ito yung talagang willing ka mawala talaga kahit anong gawin mo siguro dito ko ipapasok ito kasi currently as per checking kasi is MP2, Maya at itong MariBank ang isa sa mga malaki mag bigay ng mga APY nila so if tayo willing tayo mag stake ng pera is sure ako dito ko nalang din imbak kasi syempre passive income pa ito eh bukod sa earning mo sa crypto tsaka imagine ganyan kalaki pwede mo kitain ng wala kang ginagawa pero ako I do not recommend staking na sobrang laking ganyan id rather distribute pa din ung asset ko kasi digital bank pa din sila if nag ka issue tas large sum ng money mo andun sakit talaga sa ulo yan.

Maganda naman talaga yung offer kasi mataas ang interest kumpara sa mga commercial banks like BDO and BPI na wala pang 1% per year. Malayo ang difference kung papark mo lang yung pera mo.

Ang concern lang sa MariBank, technically rural bank pa rin sila. And to be honest, maraming rural banks na nagsara before dahil sa poor management. So nandun pa rin yung risk factor, kahit sabihin mong regulated sila.

Although matagal na daw yung bank na ‘to, founded pa around 1965. Hindi lang sila originally MariBank. Nagsimula as Banco Laguna, then naging SeaBank Philippines, ngayon MariBank na. Iba iba ang pangalan over the years, so most likely may mga new investors na pumasok or nag change ownership. Hindi naman automatic bad sign yun, pero something to think about din.

Reality is, rural banks usually offer higher interest kasi hindi nila kayang tapatan ang trust at size ng established commercial banks. So they attract depositors through higher rates. Mas mataas return, pero mas mataas din ang perceived risk.

Actually marami pa namang ibang online banks or apps na nag ooffer ng mataas na interest like:

1) Maya Bank – 3.5% p.a. base, puwedeng ma boost if active ka sa transactions
2) Netbank Mobile – around 6% p.a.
3) Tonik Digital Bank – around 4% p.a.
4) RCBC DiskarTech – around 4% p.a.
5) GoTyme Bank – around 4% p.a.
6) BanKo – around 5% p.a., parang microfinance arm ng BPI

This is true based sa statistics ng mga rural banks na nag sara compare sa commercial (or other kind of banks) ay dahil sa insolvency or liquidity issues. But so far Maribank is different, because they focus on digital, or baka mag apply or change bank category na sila na maging digital bank since they are digitally focused.

Got a point bro. Based sa official record ng BSP and PDIC listed ang Maribank as Rural bank and yung app na current gamit natin para sa may mga mayroon ay hindi considered as official digital bank sa BSP more like byproduct siya ng Maribank Philippines.

Mayroon lamang 6 na official digital bank based on PDIC as of January 15, 2026.



Ang MariBank ay bahagi ng Sea Ltd, isang malaking tech company sa Singapore (sila rin ang nasa likod ng Shopee).
Mas may financial backing at mas mataas ang corporate governance dahil publicly listed ang parent company. So Id really not gonna doubt this digital bank since masyado malakas ang parent company nila. Unless humina ang Shoppee which is alam naman natin malabo. Kaya pabor na pabor sa mga shopee guys ang maribank kasi dami perks and easy access on their tied up.


Tama si @PX-Z focus nga nila ang digital which hindi naman nakakapagtaka over the Ruralbank na nasa malayo ang location or semi province. Normal naman yun sa mga rural bank.
