AF Payments Inc., the company behind the iconic beep™ card, has partnered with the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) to introduce beep™-enabled multifunctional ID cards. This collaboration brings a tech-driven approach to public service, streamlining operations and making life more convenient for PCG personnel.
Unveiled at a launch ceremony at the PCG National Headquarters in Port Area, Manila, the innovative ID cards serve as both official identification and a cashless payment option. Seamlessly integrated with beep™’s extensive ecosystem, these cards are set to revolutionize daily transactions for the nation’s guardians of the sea.
“Imagine a PCG officer wrapping up a duty shift and seamlessly using their ID for a train ride or a snack. That’s the convenience we envisioned,” said beep™ President & CEO Jonathan Juan “JJ” Moreno. “This collaboration represents a leap forward in bringing modern solutions to public service.”
Modernizing the Frontlines
Beyond convenience, this project symbolizes the Philippine Coast Guard’s commitment to innovation. “This initiative is not just about functionality—it’s about embracing technology to serve our personnel better,” said DOTr Secretary Jaime Bautista. Admiral Ronnie Gil L. Gavan added, “These beep™-enabled ID cards are another step in our modernization journey, a promise to stay ahead in serving our nation.”
Beep Your Way to Convenience
The cards open the door to a cashless world, accepted on LRT, MRT, and P2P buses, and at retail stores like Lawson and Uncle John’s. Users can enjoy perks like rewards points, exclusive freebies, and promos—making every swipe a rewarding experience.
