The Virtual Account Service (VAS) integrates with BCB’s core banking platform and introduces new product features.
- No debit or credit interest is applied to Sub Accounts, Parent Accounts, or Settlement Accounts.
- This ensures the service is strictly used for fund segregation and flow management, not as an interest-bearing product.
- Parent Accounts and Settlement Accounts: Credit limits may be configured, subject to BCB approval.
- Sub Accounts: No credit limit is available — balances must remain non-negative.
- Configurable at either the Parent Account level or Sub Account level.
- Fee categories may include:
- Maintenance fees
- Statement fees
- Transaction fees
- Parent Accounts and Settlement Accounts: Overdrafts may be permitted under BCB’s credit policies.
- Sub Accounts: Overdrafts are not permitted — balances must remain ≥ 0.
- Statements are available for all account types: Sub Accounts, Parent Accounts, and Settlement Accounts.
- Supported formats:
- Hard copy (paper)
- Soft copy (digital)
- Statements may be generated at the individual account level, or aggregated at the Parent/Settlement level depending on reporting needs.
- Data aligns with the existing core banking setup, ensuring consistency across all customer channels.
