Philippines' second-largest pawnshop network with 2,800+ branches. Known for Sunday hours, reliable remittance, and fast service — here's everything you need to know.
Palawan Pawnshop was founded in 2001 in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, and has grown into one of the Philippines' most trusted financial services networks. With over 2,800 branches nationwide, it is the second-largest pawnshop chain in the country.
What sets Palawan Pawnshop apart is its commitment to accessibility — most branches are open 7 days a week, including Sundays. This is a significant advantage for workers who cannot take time off on weekdays to pawn or redeem items.
Palawan Pawnshop is also the operator of Palawan Express Padala, one of the Philippines' most widely used domestic remittance networks. For OFW families, Palawan branches serve as a critical link for receiving money from abroad and managing emergency cash needs.
BSP License: All Palawan Pawnshop branches are fully licensed by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. The 3.5% monthly interest rate is the BSP maximum under Circular 1119 (2021).
Palawan Pawnshop is the go-to choice for people who work Monday–Saturday. Most branches are open Sundays 9AM–5PM — a major advantage over Cebuana and Villarica which have limited Sunday hours.

"Reliable and fast. I always go to Palawan for my gold jewelry. The staff are professional and the appraisal is fair. Sunday hours are a lifesaver."
