Bangkerohan – Davao City’s Largest Public Market Now Accepts Digital Payments

Bangkerohan is now a “Digi-Palengke” with Maya.

Maya, formerly PayMaya, is transforming Davao City’s Bangkerohan Public Market, with the launch of the Paleng-QR PH initiative. Starting November 23, Davao City’s biggest public market is a live “Digi-Palengke” where consumers, vendors and tricycle drivers enjoy the convenience of cashless payment transactions regardless of their e-wallet or bank accounts.

The Paleng-QR Ph program aims to digitalize transactions starting with public markets and local transportation. The program enables vendors and tricycle drivers to accept digital payments from customers regardless of their e-wallet or bank accounts via QR Ph, the national standard for QR payment. Maya’s QR codes are QR Ph-compliant, and its app can scan any QR Ph-powered transaction.  

Creating digi-palengkes, on the other hand, is part of Maya’s own LGUs Embracing and Accelerating Digitalization (L.E.A.D). Through this program, Maya equips local governments like Davao City with business-in-a-box payment acceptance solutions and disbursement tools to enable faster public service delivery. 

  • Mayor Sebastian Duterte pays a fruit vendor via QR Ph, as BSP Governor Felipe Medalla and BSP Deputy Governor Bernadette Puyat-Romulo look on. Both gentlemen led the launching ceremonies held at the said public market.

Spearheading the “digi-palengke” program is Davao City Government with the support of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG). Also supporting the launch are PLDT and Smart Communications.  

“By promoting the interoperable QR PH national standard codes, Paleng-QR PH creates a simple but more powerful digital finance experience at the local community level. At Maya, we fully support Davao City’s vision to build a stronger digital ecosystem,” said Orlando Vea, Maya CEO and Founder and Maya Bank Co-Founder.  

“Basta QR PH, pwede kami sa Maya,” Vea added. 

The BSP’s QR Ph initiative is part of the overall financial services transformation roadmap of the Philippines. It aims to raise Filipinos’ trust in digital financial services, as consumers and enterprises will get used to sending and receiving cashless payments for everyday transactions.  

Maya’s full support to QR PH, in fact it is the first digital financial services platform to adopt QR Ph, is in line with the BSP’s thrust to increase the share of Filipino adults with a financial account from 56% in 2021 to 70% in 2023 and grow the volume of digital payments from 20% in 2021 to 50% by next year.  

“Digital payment is the entry point of Filipinos to the financial system. As they build their financial footprint, consumers and MSMEs can access more progressive digital banking services offered by Maya,” said Vea.

Maya has made it easier for consumers to spend, save, get credit, and invest in crypto just by using its top-rated all-in-one money app. Its merchant partners, meanwhile, can open a business deposit account and access revolving credit lines leveraging their payment transactions.  

  • Davao City adopts Paleng-QR Ph to modernize its public markets. With the support of Maya,the City Government has led the charge in launching Paleng-QR Ph, a program by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas and Department of Interior and Local Government, which equips public market vendors and local transport drivers to accept instant payments from other e-wallets and banks with the QR Ph, the country’s standard for QR payments.
