Stc Pay
Sending money from Saudi Arabia to the Philippines using STC Pay should be fast and hassle-free—but sometimes, your loved ones might not receive it immediately.
Don’t panic! Here’s a step-by-step guide for OFWs to solve this problem.

Open your STC Pay app and check Transaction History. Make sure:
- The transaction shows as successful
- The recipient’s mobile number or account is correct
- The amount and date are accurate

While STC Pay transfers are usually instant, some banks or e-wallets in the Philippines may take 24–48 hours to reflect the funds. Weekends, holidays, or system maintenance can also cause delays.
3. Ask the Recipient to Check
Make sure your family or recipient:
- Checks their bank account or e-wallet (GCash, PayMaya, etc.)
- Checks SMS notifications or email alerts
Sometimes the money is already there, but they didn’t receive a notification.
4. Contact STC Pay Support
If the money still hasn’t arrived:
- Call STC Pay Customer Care (Saudi Arabia): 9200 15501
- Email: care@stcpay.com.sa
Provide:
- Transaction ID/reference number
- Date and amount sent

STC Pay can trace your transfer and give updates.
5. Contact the Receiving Bank or E-Wallet
If STC Pay confirms the money was sent:
- The recipient should contact their bank or e-wallet provider
- Ask them to check for pending or failed transactions
6. Keep Records
Save screenshots of your transaction and all communication. It helps trace or recover your money if needed.
