AUB prints the eight-character form AUBKPHMM. The BRSTN is a domestic nine-digit code, not a SWIFT code: PayPal and Upwork ask for it when you withdraw to an AUB account, and Upwork wants the head office code, which both lists print as 011020011 for Asia United Bank. Codes for other banks are on Philippine bank SWIFT and BRSTN codes.

AUB’s FAQ also advises remitters to use its Gintong Hatid remittance partners where they can, because AUB cannot track a non-partner transfer until it reaches the account. Its remittance page publishes these delivery commitments for Gintong Hatid:
| Gintong Hatid service | Delivery time |
|---|---|
| Cash pickup | Real time |
| Deposit to an AUB account | Real time |
| Deposit to another bank, up to ₱50,000 | Close to real time, credited 24/7 |
| Deposit to another bank, above ₱50,000 | Same day if received within cut-off on banking days; one banking day more after cut-off |
Before the transfer is sent
- Copy the account name and number from AUB, not from memory.
- Ask whether the sender is making a SWIFT wire or using an AUB remittance partner.
- The sender should review the sending bank’s fee and exchange rate before confirming.
- Keep the transfer reference, amount, currency and send date until the money arrives.
Warning AUB’s HelloMoney FAQ says a confirmed funds transfer cannot be reversed. Check every detail before the sender pays, and never share a one-time PIN with anyone who contacts you about a transfer.
