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 greater speed, security, and transparency than traditional manual methods, while eliminating the need for beneficiaries to travel or wait in long queues.

The initiative was launched in response to rising global fuel prices, driven by ongoing geopolitical developments in the Middle East, which have placed significant financial pressure on PUV drivers and operators who depend on daily income to sustain their livelihoods and operations.

"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,” said GCash B2B Sales Head, Cleo Celeste Santos.

This partnership lays the groundwork for a scalable Disbursement Service platform that will support bulk and scheduled payouts, role-based governance approvals, and automated audit reporting, strengthening LTFRB's capacity to administer future subsidy programs more efficiently.

GCash reaffirms its commitment to serve as a platform for public good, ensuring that government assistance reaches the hands that need it most, faster and more reliably than ever before.

Drivers can 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.
