Cebuana Lhuillier MoneyXchange strengthens its role as Filipinos’ ‘Xchange Xpert’

As more Filipinos connect with opportunities beyond the country’s borders, Cebuana Lhuillier MoneyXchange continues to meet their growing foreign exchange needs through competitive exchange rates, secure transactions, and convenience through its nationwide branch networks. This increasing demand is reflected in Cebuana Lhuillier’s latest customer study, which found that while Filipinos continue to prioritize essential household needs, 22% of respondents allocate part of their budget to overseas travel, making it one of the country’s top discretionary spending priorities alongside retail and shopping.

The growing interest in overseas travel reflects the continued strength of the country’s travel sector. According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), outbound tourism expenditure grew by 3.5% in 2025, the highest growth among all tourism expenditure categories, highlighting that Filipinos continue to invest in international travel. As overseas travel becomes an increasingly important financial priority, the need for convenient, reliable, and accessible foreign exchange services continues to grow.

“Travel has become more than just a leisure activity for many Filipinos, it represents opportunities to reconnect with loved ones, pursue personal aspirations, and explore the world with confidence,” said Jean Henri Lhuillier, President and CEO of Cebuana Lhuillier. “As Filipinos become more globally connected, our mission is to make these opportunities more accessible through competitive rates, secure transactions, and the convenience of our nationwide network.”

Responding to this, Cebuana Lhuillier MoneyXchange continues to enhance its foreign exchange services to make accessing foreign currency more convenient. Through its Click-and-Collect service, customers can reserve selected foreign currencies online and conveniently pick them up at their preferred Cebuana Lhuillier branch, making travel preparations easier and more seamless.

While travel remains a key driver of foreign exchange transactions, today’s customers also rely on foreign currency for a wider range of cross-border financial needs. Entrepreneurs use it to pay overseas suppliers, freelancers receive payments from international clients, students secure funds before studying abroad, and families maximize the value of remittances from loved ones overseas.

“Today’s customers expect foreign exchange services to be fast, transparent, and readily available,” said Philippe Andre Lhuillier, Senior Executive Vice President of Cebuana Lhuillier. “Whether they’re preparing for a trip, paying tuition abroad, or managing international business transactions, they need a trusted partner that offers convenience and competitive rates. We continue to enhance our services to make every exchange easier and more accessible for Filipinos.”

With several decades of experience and one of the country’s largest branch networks, Cebuana Lhuillier MoneyXchange continues to provide Filipinos with reliable foreign exchange services wherever life takes them. Offering competitive exchange rates, convenient services, and trusted expertise, it remains the country’s Xchange Xpert for every foreign exchange need.
