Applying for a Unionbank Eon Debit Card



Since Paypal's partnership with Unionbank began, a lot of freelancers have found great advantage in using Unionbank's Eon Debit Card. Unionbank Eon debit card is the number 1 highly recommended all-in-one card for Pinoy freelancers. Why? Because with this card, you can verify your Paypal account as well as withdraw your earnings. But how does one apply for a Unionbank Eon debit card?


Here are the steps:

1. Secure 2 valid IDs with photocopies. Here's a list of valid IDs accepted by Unionbank (credits to source):
  • Passport
  • Current Driver's License
  • Permit to Carry Firearms
  • New Social Security System (SSS) card
  • Government Services Insurance System (GSIS) eCard
  • Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) ID
  • New Tax Identification Number (TIN) Card
  • Postal ID
  • National Statistics Office (NSO) authenticated Birth Certificate
  • NSO authenticated Marriage Certificate
  • Original & unexpired National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Clearance
  • Police Clearance
  • Digitized Voter’s ID
  • Philhealth card
  • Office of Senior Citizen Affairs (OSCA) / Senior Citizen card
  • ACR Identity Card (I-Card)
  • Consular ID
  • Barangay certification
  • Philippine Overseas Employment Association (POEA) / Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) Card
  • OFW ID
  • Seaman’s Book
  • Government office ID (e.g., Armed Forces of the Philippines, Home Development Mutual Fund [HDMF] IDs)
  • Certification from the National Council for the Welfare of Disabled Persons (NCWDP)
  • Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) Certification
  • PRA Special Resident Retiree Visa (SRRV) ID
  • Other valid IDs issued by the Government and its instrumentalities

2. Visit the nearest Unionbank branch.

3. Fill up the EON Visa Debit Card Application form.

4. Submit the photocopy of your 2 valid IDs. Note: The branch may require other documents and information such as your Tax Identification Number (TIN) and SSS Number so you have to bring this also.

5. Pay P350 which is your first year annual fee.

6. The bank personnel will ask you to come back after about 5-7 banking days (varies) to get your Eon card. But don't go there right away. I would advise you to call the bank first so you'll be sure the card's available already when you come. Also, don't forget to bring your initial deposit amounting to the peso equivalent of $1.95. This is required when you're using the debit card to verify your Paypal account.
