#TRIPKO cashless payments

If not yet, TRIPKO provides an Automated Fare Collection System (AFCS) for cashless transactions using a TRIPKO smart card. Currently, it has partnered with the following bus companies and jeepney cooperatives, which accept fare payments via TRIPKO card. The Department of Transportation (DOTr) is introducing cashless payments for the Light Rail Transit (LRT) and Metro Rail Transit (MRT). To reiterate, the first phase of the cashless payments rollout will start next month. MRT-3 now accepts cashless payments (GCash, QR Ph) following a pilot test run. For cashless payments, commuters can now simply scan the QR code on ticket booth counters. Moreover, with the booking and cashless payments powered by PayMaya, citizens who avail of tests through PRC only need to show up at the PRC collection sites at their scheduled time. Araneta Center Bus Port (ACBP) has also started to offer cashless payments for those who keep virtual wallets and physical cards.
