CIMB Transfer Setup

CIMB Transfer credits your clients automatically when they send money to your CIMB Bank Philippines account. CIMB emails you a "You've received funds from another bank" alert for every incoming transfer; you forward those alerts from Gmail to your panel, and the panel matches each alert to the client's payment and adds the funds. Setup takes about 10 minutes and is done once.

Step 1 — Copy your forwarding address

In your panel admin, go to Settings > Payment Methods and open CIMB Transfer. Fill in your Account Name and the last 4 digits of your CIMB account — the digits after **** on the "Transferred to" line of a real alert. Then copy the Forwarding address. It looks like pay+…@flashypanels.com and is unique to your panel. Keep the method off until setup is finished.

Step 2 — Add the forwarding address in Gmail

Use Gmail on a computer (the mobile app cannot add forwarding addresses). Click the gear icon, then See all settings, open the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab and click Add a forwarding address. Paste the address from Step 1, click Next, then Proceed and OK. Leave Disable forwarding selected — the filter in Step 4 forwards only CIMB alerts, not all your mail.

Step 3 — Wait for automatic confirmation

Google sends a confirmation email to the forwarding address. Your panel approves it automatically within about 5 minutes — you do not need to click anything. Back in admin, click Refresh on the CIMB Transfer method: a green Forwarding confirmed badge means this step is done. If Google also sends you a confirmation email, do not click its links. One of them cancels the forwarding.

Step 4 — Create the filter

In the Gmail search bar, click the search options icon (the sliders on the right). In From, enter no-reply.ph@cimb.com and click Create filter. Tick Forward it to and choose the same pay+…@flashypanels.com address from Step 1. If it is not in the list yet, wait 5–10 minutes, reload Gmail and try again. Then click Create filter.

Step 5 — Add your payment QR (optional)

Clients can scan a QR code to pay instead of typing your account details. Save your own receive QR from the CIMB app, then in admin open CIMB Transfer, click Upload QR, choose the image and click Save. Clients still have to enter the exact amount shown on the payment page, including the centavos.

Step 6 — Turn it on and test

In admin, switch CIMB Transfer on. Make a small test payment from a client account: start Add Funds, and send the exact amount shown to your CIMB account. The funds are credited automatically within a few minutes of the CIMB alert arriving.

Troubleshooting

• Badge stays red: check the forwarding address was pasted exactly, wait 5 more minutes and click Refresh.
• Payment not credited: the client must send the exact amount shown, to the account whose last 4 digits you entered, before the payment window expires.
• Clicked Regenerate address: the old address stops working. Add the new address in Gmail (Step 2) and update the filter (Step 4).

The same alert-forwarding setup works for MariBank and PDAX. For the full list of gateways, see payment methods, or the SMM panel Philippines page for local payment options.
