Digital bank GoTyme Bank has added PH Stocks, a new feature that allows users to invest in companies listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) directly within its mobile app, removing the need for separate brokerage platforms.

The feature is powered by brokerage firm DragonFi Securities, enabling users to fund investments instantly from their GoTyme Bank accounts, place stock orders around the clock, and withdraw funds without leaving the app. The integration aims to simplify stock investing, which traditionally involves multiple forms, approvals, and separate accounts.

GoTyme Bank said PH Stocks is designed for long-term investing and building wealth through regular investing and dividends rather than short-term trading.

“GoTyme Bank’s mission has always been to remove friction from finance and build confidence for new investors,” said Nate Clarke, CEO of GoTyme Bank. “Our partnership with DragonFi Securities brings credible, licensed expertise right into the app, making PH Stocks the perfect entry point for everyday Filipinos to shift from saving to investing responsibly for the long term.”

The bank cited common barriers among Filipinos, including complex platforms and lack of confidence, as reasons for integrating stock investing into a familiar banking interface.

DragonFi Securities provides the licensed brokerage infrastructure behind the feature, allowing users to access PSE-listed stocks through a streamlined experience.

“At DragonFi, our mission is to make investing accessible, transparent, and embedded into the daily lives of Filipinos,” said Jon Lim, CEO of DragonFi Securities. “By powering PH Stocks within the GoTyme Bank app, we’re not just enabling access to the Philippine Stock Exchange, we’re putting the power of long-term investing directly into the hands of millions of Filipinos in the simplest, most intuitive way possible.”

PH Stocks is now available within the GoTyme Bank app.
