It was love at first tap for Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach when she discovered the BDO Universal Teller Machine (UTM).

“Honestly, BDO continues to surprise me, even after all these years,” says the global personality hailed for her modeling career, lifestyle choices, and meaningful advocacies. Pia made public her pick of BDO as her personal bank soon after she won the Miss Universe title, the first Filipina to win in four decades. She recently showcased her loyalty to BDO in a Facebook post.

“You know what I love? When things just work,” opens Pia in a short video posted to her millions of followers. “BDO now has the Universal Teller Machine, a self-service machine that lets you skip the line and do more than just basic banking.”

Thanks to the Universal Teller Machine, clients who visit select BDO branches now have a choice between transacting with the tellers or doing it themselves. With this machine, one can update their passbook, deposit checks, make cardless transactions via QR or biometrics, and withdraw or deposit cash.

“It’s safe, quick, and perfect for people like me who love options,” explains Pia. “From check deposits, to updating your passbook, to withdrawing or depositing cash, you can do all that at the Universal Teller.”

Pia was clearly a user as she also confidently gave instructions on how to use the Universal Teller Machine in the video.

“For check deposits, just tap Cardless Transaction, choose Check Deposit and follow the steps. You can even send someone to deposit on your behalf. Want to update your Smart Passbook? Just choose Update Passbook then pop it in the machine. You can still do other transactions like cash withdrawals, deposit and send money.”

Delivering another first for its customers, BDO is the only bank that offers all these transactions in one teller machine. As Pia happily shares: “BDO is always giving me better ways to bank.”

To date, Universal Teller Machines can be found mostly in over 400 BDO branches in Metro Manila. The next time you plan a visit to a BDO branch, join Pia in discovering the many ways the banking universe aligns by using the Universal Teller Machine.
