#Beep Payments

LRT-1 private operator Light Rail Manila Corporation (LRMC), in partnership with AF Payments, Inc. (AFPI), has announced the pilot implementation of LRT-1 merchants as new channels for beep payment and loading services. Under the partnership, stalls can become LRT-1 merchants, allowing them to top up passenger beep cards with any load denomination. Every LRT-1 merchant will have a portable Standalone Payment and Loading Device allowing them to process loading of beep cards and payment transactions without the need for any integration with a Point of Sale (POS) or any external processing system. “We partnered with LRMC for the beep card program in order to promote contactless payment. We also believe that with the beep card, we facilitate convenience for riders and encourage more sales and loyalty for both Master Siomai and LRMC,” Big3 Fine Properties, Inc. Beep card payments are now accepted at GHL operated terminals. The news comes from a new partnership involving AF Payments, Inc.
