Photo source: GCash </div>Public transportation, mainly the drivers, are the backbone of Philippine mobility. The system physically connects millions of Filipinos to their bread and butter.However, due to the rising global fuel prices, driven by ongoing geopolitical developments in the Middle East, financial pressure is placed on PUV drivers and operators who depend on daily income to sustain their livelihoods and operations. In response to this crisis, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) have partnered with GCash to enable fuel subsidy disbursements benefiting drivers of public transportation nationwide.Under this program, eligible beneficiaries receive fuel assistance directly via their GCash e-wallets. This streamlined approach ensures aid reaches transport workers with speed, security, and transparency than traditional manual methods, while eliminating the need for beneficiaries to travel or wait in long queues. &quot;GCash is committed to working with the government to ensure that digital financial infrastructure advances equitable access to essential services and upholds the dignity of every Filipino. In partnership with the LTFRB, this initiative demonstrates how digital subsidy disbursement can remove structural barriers, such as long queues and manual processes, while strengthening transparency and accountability in delivering government support to Filipinos,&quot; said Cleo Celeste Santos, GCash B2B Sales Head.<div style="line-height:1">Qualified beneficiaries verified by LTFRB</div>The LTFRB verified the credentials of public transportation drivers nationwide. The fuel subsidy will be disbursed directly to the fully verified GCash account. Here is how to check if you are part of LTFRB&#x27;s recipient list:Step 1: Verify if you are on the list through LTFRB- To confirm if you are on the list of beneficiaries, call LTFRB at 0956-761-0739 through Viber.Step 2: If you are included in the LTFRB fuel subsidy beneficiaries, select your payout option. - Eligible drivers choose their preferred bank or e-wallet to receive their funds. - For those who selected GCash, LTFRB will disburse the fuel subsidy directly to the verified GCash account.Step 3: If you do not have a verified GCash account yet, here is what you need to do: - Open the GCash app. Tap Profile, then tap Verify Now.- Select a valid government ID: You may use your Driver&#x27;s License or any of the following: LTO Driver&#x27;s License, physical, digital or paper version of the National ID (Philsys), HDMF (Pag-Ibig Loyalty Plus), Philippine Postal ID, PRC ID, UMID, SSS ID, Philippine Passport- Please ensure that your ID is not expired or damaged.- Scan your government ID. Ensure that the ID you submit is valid (not expired), clear (undamaged), and the ID (not a photocopy, xerox, or just a photo of the ID).- Take a selfie within the app and provide the required information.- Wait for the message confirming that you are now fully verified.Step 4: Wait for the SMS confirmation confirming LTFRB&#x27;s fuel subsidy disbursement - Eligible fuel subsidy recipients will receive SMS confirmation from GCash confirming LTFRB&#x27;s aid disbursement- Check your GCash app if the aid fund has been received. It is also important to remember that GCash will never send a link or ask for your OTP (One-Time Password) to access the fuel subsidy. This partnership lays the groundwork for a scalable Disbursement Service platform that will help support bulk and scheduled payouts, role-based governance approvals, and automated audit reporting, strengthening LTFRB&#x27;s capacity to administer future subsidy programs efficiently.GCash reaffirms its commitment to serve as a platform for public good, ensuring that government assistance reaches the hands that need it most, fast and reliable than before. Drivers may verify their eligibility for the LTFRB fuel subsidy by checking the official beneficiary list through the LTFRB Official Facebook Page (Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board-LTFRB) or by contacting their regional LTFRB office. Eligible beneficiaries are usually registered PUV drivers and operators with valid franchises and updated LTFRB and LTO records. Drivers may need to present valid IDs and franchise documents, and those not included in the list may request record validation through LTFRB. For more information, please visit the GCash <a href="http://www.gcash.com">website</a>. <div style="line-height:1"> </div>
