LANDBANK powers digital processing of ₱10/liter fuel subsidy for PUVs

LANDBANK is enabling the efficient and secure digital processing of the ₱10-per-liter fuel subsidy for public utility vehicles (PUVs)—specifically for public utility jeepneys (PUJs) and UV Express units—under the National Government’s ₱10-Per-Liter Fuel Subsidy Program, with real-time verification and recording of transactions at participating gasoline stations in Metro Manila.

The program provides immediate relief to PUVs drivers and operators facing higher fuel costs, while helping keep transport fares affordable for commuters. Eligible PUVs may avail of the subsidy directly at participating stations through LANDBANK’s digital system, which ensures faster transactions and transparent, traceable records for gas station partners.

The Fuel Subsidy System powered by LANDBANK automatically computes the ₱10-per-liter subsidy to the fuel bill of eligible PUJs and UV Express in real-time. It also tracks the remaining weekly subsidy balance, which is replenished every Monday. The program will run for three (3) months, with a maximum subsidy of ₱1,500 per vehicle, covering up to 150 liters of fuel per week.

To ensure accurate validation of qualified PUVs and participating fuel outlets, the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) and the Department of Energy (DOE) provide LANDBANK with the lists of eligible PUVs and gas stations, respectively, which are uploaded into the system. This ensures that only qualified drivers or operators and accredited stations can transact under the subsidy program.

“Through our digital systems, we are making sure that the fuel subsidy is applied accurately, transparently, and without delay. This allows drivers to immediately benefit from the subsidy while [National Pasang Masda Vice President Jojo Martin]
