Primara Labs for Expats in Manila: Pay From Abroad, Hotel Delivery

Living in the Philippines as a foreigner, or just visiting Manila? Here is how ordering from Primara Labs works for expats. Everything happens in English, on WhatsApp, from any country's number. You do not need a Philippine SIM.

In your first message, include four things: the product and size as listed in the catalogue, your pack size, your delivery address, and how you want to pay. From abroad, Primara accepts Wise, international bank transfer, Zelle, and crypto: USDT or Bitcoin. With a local account, GCash and Maya work too. Prices on the site are in pesos, with an approximate US dollar figure.

The exact amount in your currency is confirmed in the chat before you pay. Payment details are only sent inside your order's WhatsApp chat, never on the site. Staying in a hotel or condo in Metro Manila? Orders confirmed before 12 noon on a weekday arrive the same day.

The rider leaves the parcel with reception, concierge or lobby security, so give the name on your booking or lease. It arrives in plain outer packaging, so collect it from reception promptly and put the sealed vials in the fridge. Outside Metro Manila, J&T Express delivers in 1 to 5 business days, depending on region. See the expats guide at primaralabs.
