Products
MB Aguirre Pawnshop offers the following services:
Pawning. When you're short on cash, pawning your item can help you make some. Before your item can be appraised, you must bring a valid ID for proper identification. Acceptable forms of identification include a driver's license, employment ID, National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) clearance, OFW ID, passport, postal ID, digitized Social Security System (SSS) card, voter's ID, and student IDs for minor-age students only receiving cash. Then, you can get your loan or pawn ticket after you've agreed on the terms and conditions and the item's value. When given access, present the ticket to a cashier to collect the money. You can then use the money you get from pawning items to buy things you need, like food or school materials.
Money remittance. Through the pawnshop remittance services, you can use Western Union to send money to your family members who live overseas.
Bills payment via True Money. At one of the 50 locations, you can top up or reload your prepaid plan or pay bills for Meralco, Smart, Globe, NBI, and Sky Cable.
Money changer. Money changers assist you in converting currency from one country to another, such as pesos to US dollars. It is beneficial if you are crossing international borders or conducting foreign transactions and need to convert some of your money.
Electronic loading. With electronic loading, you can get cash at any MB Aguirre Pawnshop using Globe, Touch Mobile, Smart, or Sun.
Auction. If no one claims an item or a pawn loan is not repaid on time, it is auctioned off to recover money lent to a pawn owner.
