Tagbilaran City has joined a growing roster of LGUs that are implementing “Paleng-QR Ph Plus,” a nationwide program that promotes digital payments in public markets, tricycle hubs, and other establishments.
Recently launched in Baguio City, Paleng-QR PH promotes the digitalization of transactions by market vendors, shopkeepers, and tricycle drivers across the country through QR PH, the Philippine standard for using quick response (QR) technology for e-payments.
In an attempt to make digital payments accessible to a wider base of users, PayMaya has brought its QR code payment system to the New Marulas Public Market in Valenzuela City, which has become the country's first "DigiPalengke".
