Local mobile app lendpinoy has launched its “beep Pamasahe Loan”, which allows Filipino commuters to borrow P500 for payment in P2P buses, modern jeepneys, the MRT-3, and LRT 1 and 2.
Through the newly-launched Travel section in the PayMaya app, commuters can pre-purchase their tickets even before they arrive at the station and avoid long queues.
A party-list lawmaker has called for the “full-scale investigation” of beep card provider AF Payments after it refused to waive the P80 cost of the card to bus commuters.
The Ayala-owned bank said it has partnered with Beep to allow BPI Mobile app users to purchase Beep QR tickets for rides aboard the BGC Bus service and Topline Marina in Cebu.
