菲律宾中央银行 (BSP) 周一宣布，其硬币存款机 (CoDM) 的受欢迎程度飙升，截至 4 月 15 日，可收集价值 6.489 亿比索的货币。这比 577 比索大幅增长了 12.4%。上个月同期收集了 4200 万美元。

The BSP attributed this surge to the growing public awareness of the machines and their convenience. A total of 179.64 million pieces of coins were deposited, marking a 10.7% rise from the 162.31 million recorded in the previous month. Additionally, as of April 15, 161,725 transactions had been completed through the CoDMs.

菲律宾央行将这种激增归因于公众对机器及其便利性的认识不断增强。累计存币量17964万枚，较上月的16231万枚增长10.7%。此外，截至 4 月 15 日，已通过 CoDM 完成了 161,725 笔交易。

The BSP and its retail partners introduced the deposit machines in June 2023 with the primary goal of promoting efficient coin recirculation nationwide. This initiative was designed to address the artificial coin shortage that had plagued the financial system and to ensure that only fit and legal tender currency was available for public use.

BSP 及其零售合作伙伴于 2023 年 6 月推出了存款机，其主要目标是促进全国范围内硬币的高效再循环。这一举措旨在解决困扰金融体系的人为硬币短缺问题，并确保只有合适且合法的货币可供公众使用。

All denominations of the BSP Coin Series and New Generation Currency Coins Series are accepted by the CoDMs. The machines are equipped to reject unfit or demonetized coins, as well as foreign currency and foreign objects, ensuring the quality and integrity of the coins in circulation.

CoDM 接受 BSP 硬币系列和新一代货币硬币系列的所有面额。这些机器可以剔除不合格或废币以及外币和异物，确保流通中硬币的质量和完整性。

The deposited coins can be conveniently credited to an individual's e-wallet account or converted into shopping vouchers. This flexibility has further enhanced the appeal of the CoDMs.

存入的硬币可以方便地存入个人的电子钱包账户或转换成购物券。这种灵活性进一步增强了 CoDM 的吸引力。

In February, BSP Deputy Governor Bernadette Romulo-Puyat expressed the central bank's commitment to expanding the network of CoDMs. She announced plans to roll out an additional 25 deposit machines this year, bringing the total to 50.

2 月，菲律宾央行副行长 Bernadette Romulo-Puyat 表达了央行扩大 CoDM 网络的承诺。她宣布计划今年再推出 25 台存款机，使总数达到 50 台。

Currently, 25 CoDMs are operational in the Greater Manila Area, strategically placed in select retail establishments of SM Store, Robinsons Supermarket, and Festival Mall. These machines offer easy access and convenience for the public to deposit their coins and contribute to the efficient circulation of currency.

目前，有 25 家 CoDM 在大马尼拉地区运营，战略性地分布在 SM Store、Robinsons Supermarket 和 Festival Mall 的精选零售场所。这些机器为公众存入硬币提供了方便和便利，并有助于货币的高效流通。

The BSP's initiative to promote coin recirculation through CoDMs has proven to be highly effective. The substantial increase in currency collected and transactions processed is a testament to the machines' practicality and utility. The BSP's commitment to expanding the network and educating the public about the benefits of using CoDMs will further enhance the positive impact on the financial system and the overall economy.

事实证明，菲律宾央行通过 CoDM 促进硬币再流通的举措非常有效。收集的货币和处理的交易量的大幅增加证明了机器的实用性和实用性。央行致力于扩大网络并教育公众了解使用 CoDM 的好处，这将进一步增强对金融体系和整体经济的积极影响。
